The price is outrageous. Like, you can build the same size structure that is better and could even match your house for a lot less then their crazy costs. And that will look a lot better then a shipping container sitting in your backyard.

[@DayquanDamas]

The issue here is 1. Time. How often do we buy things because it's convenient and save us time? 2. Permits. What you can and cannot build on your property due to city ordinance. Very blurred fine line there. 3. Knowledge. Not everyone knows how to do this stuff themselves. It's a smart idea and if I had the money I would do this. My brother moved in with me and he's loud and being self employed I'm home. So having that extra little space without breaking HOA...I'd do it.

My first thought after I heard the words “sound proof” and before hearing the monthly payment, was what a fantastic idea this could be for a person who plays a musical instrument, such as drums, to be able to play/practice without disturbing the household and neighborhood. But at a cost of $800.00 a month, I unfortunately will have to bow out.
