On a global level, there's been a rise in the home prices. It's been very difficult for all to get a good property on the property market. Prices have hiked over 8% in this year alone. It's not just about the property anymore, it's about the house building prices as well. Yes, it's getting expensive however, nobody is really making money out of it.  This leaves people wondering whether they can afford their own home or not.  That's how the concept of shipping container homes came­ they're affordable, effective and ideal for most of the population.                       “Cant I afford a container house? You need to know 2 things if you need to answer this question­ the budget and the expected cost of your dream home. Working out the budget is very simple­ it's all about how much you have in your bank account! However, the expected cost can be proven to be tricky. Especially, if you have no idea about how to go about the entire process of building yourself your container home.  Here, comes the breaking down the bit where you need to drill down into each and every intricate detail of your container house­ the cost of the land, taxes and purchase fee and so on.              Also Read: 5 Ways To Insulate Your Shipping Container Homes
