I couldn’t afford to buy a house so
I moved into a shed and saved thousands

Original Article

Buying a house is a challenge for many—especially those who are single and struggle save for a hefty deposit by themselves. One woman, influencer Elise Buch, knew all about that and was gutted when she realised she couldn’t afford to buy a home. However, Elise didn’t let this get her down and instead realised that with the money she did have, she could afford to buy a shed instead.(Snip)Elise added: “There’s a tiny kitchen here, it doesn't have any water anywhere yet. “I have an oven, pretty basic. “Then if you go further out here, it’s possible to install a bathroom and a toilet.

Comments:

Embrace the Third World lifestyle by living in an uninsulated shed with no running water, except in a cold damp climate that might kill you. "You'll own nothing and you'll like it," say the super-wealthy Marxist criminals kept in power by young voters such as Elise Buch, who has been single since 2016 and lives with her bunny, Luna.

I applaud her for not living beyond her means. Far too many young people think they have to have the best and newest of everything right out of the starting gate, and the debt haunts them for the rest of their lives. At the same time, I have no use for an "influencer". I first heard the term a week ago and have been checking it out. It appears to be a narcissistic "look at me" type who puts their whole life on instagram and for some reason, people care. I dont.

Hey cupcake, think about getting a toilet. You might run into a man that enjoys a beer or two.

When TK and I first bought the homestead in '93, we put up a 12x16 barn-shaped shed for our camping cabin, minimal insulation. We built two sets of bunk beds, a small table and a "kitchen" counter; water from bottles, Coleman stove and ice chest. We had an outhouse and a line connected to our non-resident neighbor's electricity, with permission. It was comfy for 10 days, three times a year. When we decided to bail out of LA in 1999 we moved into the cabin. The land was paid off and we had a construction loan, so our only bill was for the phone and reimbursing our neighbor for the electricity. TK even built himself a little computer desk; the internet was still dial-up! It was June and our manufactured home would be installed by October. But October came and went with no house, not even a foundation. We had all our household goods in storage in town and we had to go in to swap out our summer clothes for winter. That first winter was a challenge but brought us closer together. We had to work as a team. The house was finally finished in late March, and I was a bit sad to leave the cabin. It was great fun...like living in a play house. It took me five minutes to clean...basically sweeping the floor. Even going into town to the laundromat, post office and market was an adventure. Life was very simple and I'm glad for the experience, but nine months was enough! A real house is much nicer!!!

Mrs C and I had our first apartment in very old bachelor officers quarters from WW2 that had been made into apartments. Brick walls with no insulation, heater ran continuously but didnt warm up the house much, furniture bought out of the basement of a used furniture store because it was broken (but cheap). We walked to the store and the laundrymat and got strong arms in the process. Rent was $110 a month and we saved every nickel we could. Now we have a paid off house, a pretty good retirement saved up, plenty of money in the bank and a lot of real estate. I think saving early on made all the difference. Not enough young people do it, but the ones who do seem to be far more successful.

If I were single, I could happily live in a shed type building. I'd insulate the hell out of it, put in a shower stall and a crapper, and let the rest of it be one room.

I suppose we have to assume she owned a piece of land, otherwise where do you put the shed. Shipping Containers are another way to provide shelter. Renting a porta -potty could serve the toilet problem. Small places are not herd to keep warm with a Kerosene heater even without insulation.

I have been binge watching camper van conversion, van camping van lifestyle for a number of years- some people have nowhere to go- and make best of situation- there are many, such as myself, that desire freedom, mobile hotel- to travel or be near adult children! The van conversion can be simple or some pay over 100k - but price is relative.. if a young couple can’t afford the housing market- and spend 100k on a luxury van build? They now have a home- Me? I want something I can camp in for extend time with kids- you don’t have to be dirty, no shower- no toilet or no insulation- you do have to plan and decide what are must haves and build accordingly. The housing bubble is going to cause huge amounts of people with upside down mortgages- this young lady is living with in her means- and will have the last laugh!

I need a house for the crap that I've accumulated over the past 60 years. Once upon a time, a single room "cabin" was common for living purposes. It wasn't all that long ago that the standard US home was under 1000 SQFT. Soooooo.....good for her. If she's happy, more power to her. That said, it is the goal of leftists for the population to live in cities, in apartments.

Near the town where I live, Home Depot built five tiny homes on a lot of around a half-acre. Each home has a parking area for about two cars, front porches, and each has a chimney so maybe a fireplace as well. They appear to be about 800 sq feet in size and went up for sale as soon as they were finished. Within a week they were all occupied. One was bought by a police officer because there is always a police car parked in front of one of the homes. I have no idea how much they cost, but they do look quite nice for their size. This is certainly a heck of lot better than a shed with no running water or heat.

I have spent a lot of time camping since I was kid. Before my wife and I got married, we lived in a 150 s.f. hunting cabin that a friend loaned us. Have had comfortable,average sized homes since then. Have a 1500 s.f. home now and it is just me and the cat. Thinking about selling it all except for my 1977 6.6 meter Airstream Argosy. So, I've come full circle in terms of s.f.. But I WILL be able to change the scenery whenever I feel like it and while still able to do so.

In my neck of the woods there apparently is a trend to use 'Conex coxes' (shipping containers) as the shell of a home. The box gives a strong shell, and the 8' x 20' or 8' x 40' boxes can be arranged and stacked, then interconnecting openings and doors cut out with a saw or acetylene torch. Instant rough shelter that can then be finished out as one pleases, I guess.

My parents lived in a log cabin built by my grandfather in Idaho in 1927. It was their honeymoon place. My Dad took me there in ‘57. The roof had collapsed but most of the walls were still there. I could see that they had to have their stove going at full blast during the winter, when it was occupied. They really roughed it in those days.

This is Brit tabloid, "get pics of pretty girl" fluff article. It is illegal to reside in a garden allotment shed in Germany and I would think in England too. You can spend a night there, but not live in it full time. We don't have anything like the widespread garden allotment system Europe does, but I can't imagine an American county authority near an urban center would be happy about it either, given how finicky they are about trailer homes. You should be able to get away with it on a large piece of property, but the, if you could afford a large piece of property why would you be reduced to living in a shed? Silliness.

Re #3: A friend is a fairly well known lawyer, you have probably seen him on Fox News being interviewed, often on immigration, the Wall and voting issues. He was a high elected Kansas government official, but honest, and so not wealthy. TQ's story reminds me of his. Last time I visited him at his place in the country, on 150+ acres, he and his wife and three kids were still living in a portion of one of those steel industrical buildings that he had put up. About 30x50, a portion was walled off and a furnace, bathroom, kitchen and other living spaces carved out of one corner. They lived there, with the farm tractors and cars in the rest of the building, while he worked with the home subcontractors to build their dream home. He wanted it paid for when done, so it took several years to build, and the family lived in their humble steel industrial building for about 4 years total. Last time I visited, the wood fired hot water boiler heating system was almost done, and the wiring was going in to the structurally finished home. I'm sure that by now it is finished and the steel building is now just for trucks, tractors and a workshop. In our case, we wanted a vacation home in the southern Colorado mountains. We paid for a septic system and crawl space foundation to be poured, total about $6,000 in the 90s. My wife and I then built the floor system ourselves, and friends and family came out and we put up the walls, set the trusses and sheeted the roof with about 7-8 family and friends there for a week, all camping out in July. Everyone else had to go home, and we stayed on to install one door, a couple of windows and shingle the roof. Then we were out of three weeks of vacation, but our new vacation home was weather tight and lockable. We finished the interior, wiring, solar electric power, propane systems, etc over the next 4 years or so. I had worked construction, and built two homes with my father, and my wife is pretty handy, too. She has led the roofing crew for Habitat for Humanity on three homes, teaching eager but clueless teens and college students how to roof a house. Start with what you can afford. Work your way up. Build as much as you can yourself. Learn as you go. There are books, or get a job and work construction for a summer, and learn. Sweat equity is a good thing. Best wishes to all who are starting out small in these difficult times.

Pretty soon no one will have a choice. Leftists are regressive. They love the stories of the ruling class; they also love owning everything, faring sumptuously, bossing people around, picking winner and losers (affirmative action, socialism), determining who lives and dies (why they love abortion) and living gutter hell lifestyles.

Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg's top political donors received millions of dollars in city contracts after giving thousands to his campaigns while he was mayor of South Bend, Indiana. Buttigieg's political action committees took money from 23 companies who then got jobs from South Bend's Board of Public Works on which he was seated, documents obtained by DailyMail.com reveal.

Federal officials warned Tuesday that as much as $80 billion in unemployment benefits could have fraudulently gone to cybercriminals and international crime rings. Officials from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the U.S. Secret Service say improper accountability measures at the federal and state levels aided the fraud throughout the coronavirus pandemic.(Snip)International syndicates and cyberhackers quickly set up fake profiles, using pilfered personal information, to steal billions from the federal government.

US home prices saw their biggest increase in at least 34 years in 2021, according to data released Tuesday, as buyers spent the year snapping up homes and builders struggled to keep up. Home prices surged 18.8 percent last year, according to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller US National Home Price index, the biggest jump since its creation and much more than the 10.4 percent jump seen in 2020. Fueled by remote work and booming regional economies, mass migration to the South, Southwest and Mountain West drove some of the sharpest increases in home prices, as demand outstripped supply.
