Great Stuff – Affordable Recycled Housing
Its fair to say that the cost of building a house from scratch even on land owned by oneself is still going to be pretty expensive, perhaps the solution to cheap, affordable housing could be found through re-using the products that we have previously created…
Personally I cannot ever see myself owning a home, frankly with the money I presently earn and the little savings that I actually have coupled with the fact that now is apparently the time to start thinking about buying a property, whether I would actually be accepted for a first time buyer mortgage remains a mystery I don’t want to find out.
This scheme in LA in the US seems to be the answer at least to the problem that seems to stem from playing neighbouring city to one of the biggest ports in the US. Their idea was to create houses out of the fairly sturdy shipping containers which are omnipresent in the suburbs around LA, to build cheap, affordable housing which almost halves the cost of construction… A great idea indeed! Next we will be all growing vegetables or something
