REPO Shed To House - You Won't Believe What I Found Inside One

[highway]

I've been in construction for over 40 years. I wouldn't even think about removing those 3 joists in the center. They are preventing the walls from bowing out at the top plate.

This is the Future of rental homes in America. It's also tha answer to homeless. I just finished a 6th one on My land in Texas. I hope to have 25 when I'm done, all rentals. With a little work they make nice affordable homes. Instead of people putting $3000 down on an Apt, They are waiting in line to become part of what I am creating. This is a great business and solution to unaffordable housing.

These interest rates are unbelievable. The 12x32 lofted porch cabin listed at $12, 490, at the 8 minute mark. At $462 for 60 months, comes out to over $27, 720. You're buying this shed twice in that period.

That lil bitty cabin shed would be perfect hooked up next to one of the bigger sheds...I'd make a nice big bathroom out of it with a BIG standup shower and a HUGE soaking tub...lol

My favorite was the repo barn style smelly one, it was the best value for your moolah and you all could do a lot with that.

I liked the last one . Lots of like and could be turned into a very cute Tiny House.

Goodness! My husband and I bought a 16X40 in late 2018 for $12 grand. Hired someone to finish it out, for an additional $20 grand. Initially, it was going to be a temporary home. We sold our old house, paid off our land, and sat on the rest to build a new house. Right when covid hit. We're still saving, and adding to our account monthly, but house building costs have gone thru the roof! We've talked about the possibility that we might live in our little place the rest of our lives. We are ok with that. It isn't the greatest arrangement, but we're content enough to make it work.

I would think that the "loft" in the middle is probably for stability and reinforcing in the middle, not just for transport, but all round, including better roof support.

The center “loft” is for support for the walls in the center of the building. Keeps the walls from bulging out or in.

Thanks for the tour. I liked the look of the last one. It was very small but would be good to live in while building a forever home.

I really appreciate these tours. I'll never get to see these in my life. So interesting to see the builds and prices. Thanks so much.

12x32 loft barn style, on a roof as the weight pushes down the outside walls want to push out. A truss style roof is engineered as a series of triangles to counteract the outward force, a gable roof or a gambrel (barn) roof must have rafters of a series of collar ties to counteract the outward force. The other way is to have a large load bearing ridge to carry the 1/2 the load weight of the entire roof system. The plywood on the loft section also acts as a shear panel to counteract the twisting action of the building.
On truss roofs no 2x4s can be removed or cut, the truss is designed as a unit, every piece of wood and the nail plates are designed to work together.
