Shipping container investment

Vida Lolitaa
Posted

Hi,

I am looking into my options for some type of investment I was thinking multi family or buy land and build a shipping container home. I was also thinking maybe find a home for cheap and restoring it for myself with a construction loan. I am not sure of location but I am open to different areas. I want it to be in the country but still close to the city. I would like the budget to be around 300,000 the max preferably cheaper if possible.

Can someone please tell me what they think my better options would be. How can i get a construction loan and what are the requirements for one? What are the best areas to build a shipping container home, buy a multi family or buy a fixer upper home without breaking the bank but still be in a decent area?

Thank you.
