As reported by The Sun:

"Home Depot is selling an incredible two-story tiny home building kit that could save you hundreds of thousands on an expensive mortgage.

For just $44,000, shoppers can get a preassembled 540-square-foot steel frame that can be transformed into a sustainable and affordable tiny house.

Home Depot wrote in the description that this is only the steel kit to support the property but clarified that everything you need to finish the house can be bought at their stores.

The kit is made from high-quality steel that can be delivered straight to the spot where you want to put up the tiny abode.

While Home Depot recommends it is used as a guest house or cabin, the tiny structure could easily be the minimalist's forever home.

A mockup design posted on the retailer's website shows an incredibly modern home complete with an outdoor spiral staircase and a rooftop patio area."

If you lived in your average suburb that allowed 10x12ft outbuildings/sheds, how far nice could you make it before you start running into having to get it permitted assuming its your typical suburb in "flyover country"?
I assumed you could have a basic offgrid solar panel with a window a/c unit but no plumbing or connecting it to the grid?

250+ sq ft is not a tiny house by some standards!

Didn't Sears do something like this back in the 60's? Build Your Own House Kits or something?

Pretty sure Sutherland still does, or at least they did up until 10 years or so ago. It may just be a Midwest thing though

Quote from BoastfulHome4885 :
external shells only cost about 35k for 2000 sq ft, for 50k you can get a 3000 sq ft. 2000 for living, 1000 for workshop/garage. Drywall is actually pretty darn cheap to finish houses as is framing the interior. I just did 5 rooms, 1800 sq ft in one for 6,000 bucks. Hiring someone to do that work is going to ramp that up to 10-15k. If you really want a tiny house, using a barn, it can be done for as little as 10,000 bucks for 500 sq ft, and another 10,000 for interior. In fact it'll cost only 2,000 bucks for a foundation for the cheapest option, for a 500sqft slab. Literally, you can build a permanent, tiny home for 30k or less, FINISHED, and turn key for 30k.
amazing and these builders want millions in CA. KUF them its the permitting and zoning restrictions.

we need to vote people in to remove these permits and open up lands to build on.
