[@mythcrafts]

dumb question, what's the permit for? the land?

[@andrewg5672]

you MAY need a permit for a shed depending on area, but it is just illegal in general, regardless of state or province. It is illegal because In this sense, the purchaser is using what should be a shed as a dwelling. You are not legally allowed to have an accessory shed as a livable/rentable house (because it is not taxed and treated as such). It is against zoning laws, safety standards, applicable boards for housing standards. It is against many many federal, state, and bylaws and very illegal. You can try to do this, but if people find out and complain, you can get in some trouble. A shed MAY qualify as a home but it must face very strict building code standards which most sheds aren't designed for at all and would need a complete retrofit. A lot of those tiny homes videos you may have watched are different because they are either designated as mobile homes, or mini homes, which again have different standards and rules. A shed would NOT fit into any of these categories and unfortunately is not a legal, livable home.

[@benjadryl_7393]

@@mythcrafts the first and most obvious logistical problem is where to put it, pretty much every area of land you encounter is going to be owned by someone and obviously they won't like having a random small house appear one day. But then, as the guy above said, there are general requirements to make a house legally something you can live in. These requirements are often surprisingly strict. In many places bedrooms have to have windows, for instance. Obviously insulation and running water are also big problems.

You get what you pay for. Not hard to msg the seller and ask for a scale video of it when opened up.

From the 1900s-1940s, Sears (then Sears-Roebuck) used to sell homes through their mail catalogue, they ranged from small to big ranch style homes, and basically you would receive pre-cut wood pieces that you (and I guess neighbors or friends) could assemble together, over the course of several weeks to a month, and the end products looked pretty good! (as long as you knew what you were doing) Back then, people could forego bank loans and mortgages and purchase their homes through Sears-Roebuck's loan program, which almost always resulted in the buyer getting a loan (so they could buy from Sears-Roebuck) but when the Great Depression hit, Sears also took a massive hit and ended up having to foreclose on a LOT of those homes. Think about a house you built with you own hands being taken away by the company you bought it from... Anyways, a lot of those homes are actually still around and as long as they haven't been too renovated you can often tell which homes are from the catalogue! Just thought it was interesting that history was repeating itself

@@shwahgamer Sears was founded in 1892.

They had MASSIVE warehouses dedicated to catalogue and mail order shopping until the late 80s/early 90s Right when the internet started picking up they decided the way of "the future" was brick and mortar stores so they closed their mail order business. If they had moved their catalogues to the internet instead they would be bigger than Amazon.

Yall, if you really want affordable housing. The usda has 0 down loans you can spend on actual land and a real proper manufactured home. I've seen basic models go for 30-40k but you can get rather nice ones still cheaper than stick and brick. Just has to be in an area officially marked as rural. (Some cities are slow and suburban areas are still marked rural) Another option for those who just cant do country life is condos. Like apartments but it's cheaper than rent and has a much more doable down payment. Just make sure you double check those hoa fees and what they go to.

Hey Danny, licensed structural engineer here. Depending on your local jurisdiction will affect the legality of this house and also whether you need a foundation, anchorage, additional bracing, and a whole slew of other potential problems. The trick here is that because it can be disassembled you can claim that it is not a permanent structure and therefore is not intended for the structural capacity actual houses are built for. Not does that mean this won't blow over in a storm or fall apart in an earthquake? No. It just means statistically this thing has a low chance (in theory) of being erected in a "100-year wind/seismic event" that traditional homes are build for.

Danny, you are 100% correct that increasing the housing supply with higher density housing would make it generally more affordable, but two main factors prevent it from going forward: zoning/politics and developer interest. 1) in most places in the US at least, in order to build higher density housing, the real estate has to be zoned for it, and a lot of current home-owners in those areas don't want to risk their home values to decrease as a result of the new development (aka NIMBYs) 2) there are far fewer housing developers than there used to be as a result of both the 2008 financial crisis and more recently as a result of mortgage interest rates rising, so if the development project isn't profitable enough, and generally "affordable" housing isn't as profitable as "luxury" housing is to build and sell (unless it is subsidized by the local or state gov... also not usually popular with local residents, because it costs addtl tax money), there won't be a lot of interest in developing these projects. This is why you continue to see more and more "luxury" condos and apartments still being built, but almost no affordable housing.

[@kittygoesWOOF]

Sears, Roebuck & CO has been around forever, late late 1800s. It's decline was caused by the owner's love for Ayn Rand and invisible hand of the free market and that style of capitalism/objectivism. He implemented these procedures around 2005ish and started to drastically lose money. But he kept going, trying other things in that same vein. That's what ultimately decimated the company. 20 years of Eddie Lampert caused the internal company collapse while the external was impacted by online shopping (but not destroyed, still salvageable, if it weren't for Lampert.) As of January 2024, there are 13 Sears stores in total remaining, 1 in Puerto Rico and 12 in the US. It's actually a really interesting story if you google it. There are tons of articles about it. It's not recent, but it's still very relevant in terms of capitalism and consumerism, or if you just dislike Ayn Rand (me).

Here’s the thing they’re not gonna tell you 1. You still have to obtain land to place the house on 2. You have to get your land zoned and have the city ALLOW YOU to place that house where THEY tell you to put it on your own yard 3. Running utility lines along with digging out areas for them (plumbing and electrical) is going to be a huge expense 4. With all the other points in mind along with other things I didn’t mention???? You’re looking at approximately well over $500k just to obtain land and place that house there with full electrical capabilities you would add in yourself which also costs insane amounts of money you’re spending ON TOP of the fact that you spent a good $26k on a house alone

So, here in Germany, there are people who spend like 3-6 months out of the year living in camping parks. They buy or permanently rent a plot and treat it as their summer home. Some of them have pretty elaborate set-ups either for their trailer or pretty big "sheds" that basically reach tiny house status. Similarly, there are people who rent little parcels of land to garden on and usually they also build what's effectively a tiny house on it - not to permanently live in it, but to maybe spend a weekend in their little garden or to host garden parties and have somewhere to sit and use the loo and such. I feel like that's the kind of scenario these kinds of houses were originally meant for. It's a pretty elaborate camping set-up, but not really all that good as a permanent home you want to live in year-round. If that was more transparent, I'd be pretty fine with this.

The only thing I was thinking throughout most of this is that Amazon just keeps regurgitating ideas from other people and calling them original. These houses are just worse kit homes. Kit homes were popularized in the 20th century, and you could literally order one from a Sears catalogue, (or whatever your preferred catalogue of choice was, I just know about the Sears ones.) Which is nearly the exact same thing amazon is doing except that kit houses were made with better materials, and you can tell because it didn't take them eight hours to put up. With a skilled carpenter, you could have them up in a few weeks, or months if you wanted to DIY it. And the fact that most of them are still standing and fully functional as homes. Considering most were built anywhere from 1910 to 1950, that's pretty impressive to me. Then again, I am also biased. Literally the only reason I know about the Sears houses is because that's how my childhood home was built. My grandparents bought it from a Sears catalogue in 1934. Fucking just mail-ordered a home. (Still a fantastic house. We have had to update the plumbing because ceramic pipes are the devil, but that's pretty much the only really intense renovation we've had to do.) There sadly aren't any of the original companies still selling kit houses, and we can put that blame on tract house subdivisions and WW2. tl;dr fuck air bnb and amazon

[@MAIMEDWOLF]

yeah but they were actually decent quality. A wind blows and this house collapses xD

[@mier0]

They're fancy sheds, they're sheds advertised as "houses" and more like man cave/she sheds for your backyard to act as your hobby room or backyard getaway. I live by a shed warehouse that sells a ton of these for the upscale neighborhoods with big backyards

Literally this. But well, the social media always does the best job as mispreading information "gen z now can have houses" and so on just to generate a boom and have views, but I hope people won't be dumb enough to actually buy these as actual homes..., but the human stupidity is endless which worries me
