Prefab in Joshua Tree
Thinking of doing a vacation home new construction in Joshua Tree / Yucca Valley / Twenty Nine Palms area. Really like the prefab container home look in the desert. Something that works as a Fannie Mae second home, but also has decent numbers as an STR most of the year.
Looks like the land isn't that expensive, most of the risks would be in getting power/water/sewer/septic. Would anyone who has tried it recommend it?

There is a guy on YouTube who goes by Robuilt who offers a lot of detail on a tiny home he built in Joshua Tree.
And there's another guy who goes by HomeMadeModern who documented the process of building a tiny home in Joshua Tree.
