Yes, you read the title correctly. Amazon does sell prefabricated homes. They aren’t mansions or anything, but who cares? You can buy a home for less than $20,000, some as low as $5,000. Of course, you’re going to need tools and maybe a few basic carpentry skills. But has a lack of skills stopped you yet? We doubt it. Keep reading to find out how you can get your Amazon prefabricated home!
Amazon Prefabricated Homes
Owning two homes…who has that kind of money? Let’s be honest, most of us probably don’t have a few hundred thousand lying around. However, Amazon along with a lot of other retailers offers prefabricated homes for under $25,000. You can even find tiny homes for under $10,000. Of course, this is cheap in comparison to most single-family homes. And while you’ll be saving a lot, you will be compromising space, in both the prefabricated Amazon houses and other tiny home options.

Why Get A Prefabricated Home
State of Emergency
If a state of emergency happens, do you have a place to go? Are you planning on running to the nearest cave? Maybe you’re planning on staying at your uncle’s place. No matter what, it’s important you know your options before the emergency. When things get really bad, you might have to forfeit everything you have and go someplace else, whether that be due to a hurricane, flood, or other natural disasters. Of course, there’s always the chance of a zombie apocalypse, so you should be prepared for that as well. Either way, you might need a place of retreat that isn’t your home on Sunshine Ave. The point is, that you should be prepared for when things get really bad. Some choose a second home—you could use it as a vacation spot when your life isn’t being threatened too.
