Building a Cheap House

Building a cheap house

Money…we all seem to always need more of this strange papery green substance. 

After rent, utilities, car payments and grocery bills come swiping our hard earned cash within what seems like the blink of an eye, it’s no surprise we’re always in search of reducing our frustrating bills in exchange for a fatter wallet.

Maybe, like me, you’ve daydreamed or even considered jumping into the illusive and carefree existence of a beach bum or a free roaming hippy life in order to escape the common financial burdens required for shelter.

Maybe, like me, you also held the breaks and never took this plunge due to that common need for warmth and security that a home brings each and every night.

What if I told you…you can have both?  What if I told you it’s possible to live rent free?

Building a Cheap House - continued

In my own search for a cheap solution to my future housing needs, my eyes began to open to the wonderful world of alternate, roll up your sleeves, do it yourself housing…and since then, I just haven’t seen life the same.

With a little elbow grease and a lot of passion for a lighter and more carefree life, you can create your own little slice of American dream without accepting a lifetime of debt; but how?

Based on your own sense of style and personality, there is a variety of amazing possibilities for do it yourself housing, the cost ranging from as low as $300 to construct a house that will last for years and years…and all belongs to you.

For your convenience, I have gone through extensive research into numorous houses ready for you to build or buy pre-made.

Enjoy and remember…you can have big dreams and a big wallet…now.

To  Inspire You

Note:

Though this may not be for everyone, for those that don’t mind taking a more creative out of the box approach to home sweet home, this is a wonderful and versatile option.

 

“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.” 
― Lao Tzu

“Frugality is one of the most beautiful and joyful words in the English language, and yet one that we are culturally cut off from understanding and enjoying. The consumption society has made us feel that happiness lies in having things, and has failed to teach us the happiness of not having things.” 
― Elise Boulding
