The Boxabl Casita is a $49,000 home that begins as an easily-transportable 8-foot wide box and unfolds into 375-square-feet of living space.
In under an hour, it unfurls to reveal a kitchen with a refrigerator, double sink, oven, and dishwasher and a bathroom with a shower/tub, sink, counter, mirror, and sliding glass door.
Father/son team Paolo and Galiano Tiramani have been prototyping the idea since 2017 and have recently moved into a 170,000-square-foot factory in order to mass-produce their “instant house”. Galiano explains, “Ford builds one F-150 every 53 seconds. We want to beat that.”
Galiano calls the Casita a universal building block and says that they can be stacked or placed side by side to create other housing configurations. They plan to release other box sizes in the future: "likely 20x20, 20x30, 20x40, 20x60".

Most states (like California) if the sq ft is under 400, you can register it as a trailer. Just attach a fake trailer/frame to it with wheels and you're exempt from a lot of building codes and regs. Or have it where it's on a skid and can be dragged to new location and have it deem as a shed. 1 of my friend has 6 of them in his property, he has them on a skid. The city went to his house to check to make sure it was "portable", which he did, by showing them they were all built on top of a 6x8 beam and can be pushed/dragged with a tractor to a new location at anytime. This is in California, and he passed the inspection.

They had hookups for all utilities as well as heating and cooling units. I used one in New Mexico during the summer and winter months. They are fantastic shelters. They had removable wheel kits and four people could set up the entire unit without heavy equipment. Glad to see this design concept being used outside of the military.

@@radiofreealbemuth8540 my first thought when I watched the video presentation (after my initial amazement) was what’s the catch? These days … a home, an Elon Musk “cheap” electric car for under a 100k is a wild concept. Indeed unbelievable! One of the reasons I love this product. I would suggest the company being a little more transparent because most folks without any home building, ownership experience … you know these are likely their clients, will always ask what’s the catch? I asked that question even with my experience. They should be sure to explain more details. Provide clients with “all” the information they may require. This will add a ton of credibility to their company name… branding. In another comment I mentioned my concerns about 2 things. 1) the quality of the presentation videos seems “homemade” it lacks authenticity. 2) there was no information about the extra costs, primarily the roof? Solve these 2 issues and of course market awareness and this concept becomes more attainable. The tiny house thing, to my amazement, is pretty big. This company says they have 2 billion in pre-orders! That’s a Shark Tank moment right there! It also tells you where the market is headed. But even a friend who has built a tiny home has spent $50k as a novice then $35k on another experienced project but… they do not hold a candle to what I see here. Let’s face it - those projects are a travel trailer. As well as many others like it. I compare this emerging business to the mobile homes of yesteryear. Eventually the mobile home industry had to overcome their bad reputation and produce a more quality product. These new box home product will lack credibility. They will be viewed with skepticism. For good reason. The manufacture who figures out how to provide a quality “home” - no “wheels” and provide excellent customer service will prevail. Additionally, while I realize there are widely varying parameters to local ordinances, any further info the manufacture can voluntarily provide their “newbie customers” would provide the customers with a great more confidence and making a purchase that much easier to visualize and see themselves in that home. Edit… look for the government to assert their control over this industry. Like they have over your entire life. This will have a huge effect on who can actually own this home. An example: the state of California had “purchased” an apartment building to house the homeless fir something like 5.5 million at a cost of something like $175,000 per resident. Imagine what they could have done with this product instead. Or worse yet… what they will do to the regulations of this product so that it will become just as expensive to the residents.

What kind of testing has been done on overall longevity of materials, leakage, snow load on roof, below freezing temps, high winds, air tightness and quality of insulation. Will be many years before that data can be collected. In the meantime, awesome concept! And the implementation is a fluid process that will need to address the results of trial and error over the next 15 to 20 years. Too new to take a risk for most of us as this product has no track record at this time. Kudos to Boxabl’s progressive designers and engineers…now, only time will tell.

We just had a factory built modular home done (big--3500 sq ft). It is the best, overly built home we have ever lived in. Nothing stick built compares to this. We added brick to the exterior, a screened in porch, and garage. The house itself was around 250K including delivery (that doesn’t include foundation, garage, screened in porch and brick siding). We even did quite a bit of modifications at very little cost. People are in awe with our house because it is so beautiful. Will never go stick built again

And to tall to snow rake or any other ground method with out a ladder I have insurance so premium boy can pay for any damage in a catastrophic snow. 3 to 4 feet in areas has held up well. That was my biggest concern and well zero problems many winters also -40 -50 below zero Temps this house is warm. Hope this helps someone with questions.

I had a dream about a month before i found out Boxabl was a thing, In my dream the houses all had the same styling as Boxabl homes did. It was honestly very cool to find out this was a thing, and i am not usually a person who thinks of dreams as a notion that something small will bloom to become big. But i honestly think with how the world is growing at a great exponential rate, that this company can go far with the right assets in place to sustain the growth and increasing revenue year over year. Im in my 20's and the price of a home is laughable in comparison to the wages we are offered, Boxabl really would allow even a post secondary student to own a home at my age which is really cool to think about. Great potential.

These homes are great and may be more affordable than traditional built on site construction. What was left out was cost for land if you don't already have a home with a large lot to place it on, second, you need a foundation to place it on and anchor it down to. Also plumbing, sewer and electrical lines need to be brought to the structure. Check with the Water company, Sewage company and gas and electric company as this can be another 35-50k for all the utility connections.
