EBAY customers can now purchase a tiny home for under $13,000.

The ecommerce site is selling a 20-foot mobile container house for just $12,995.

Made by the brand Asymptech Modular Homes, the tiny home consists of steel and wood and includes dual pane windows.

The container home is 20 feet in length and width and comes “ready to go” as the builder said it’s up to the owner to add their creative touch to the interior.

Other features include exterior cladding to protect from weather, insulation, electrical, lighting, an entry door, a 50A breaker box, and PVC three-millimeter flooring.

Customers who purchase will get a one-year warranty but note that the seller does not accept returns.

The tiny home is priced at $12,995 and can only be purchased from eBay.

As the tiny home trend gains steam, many builders and landowners have created communities and spaces for others to either live in their tiny homes full time or rent as vacation homes.

For example, Lost River Vacations is a company started by three proudly Deaf entrepreneurs and aims to reframe how the entire community is viewed.

While the community boasts many amenities like 22 acres of forest, a state park with a pool, and horseback riding, it only has two available tiny homes for rent.

Located in West Virginia, guests can choose from either The Acorn or the larger The Black Oak.

The different between the two is price, location, and size.

The Acorn is $199 per night and can sleep four while the Black Oak is a two-story and costs $299 per night.

Many stores and online retailers have started to sell tiny homes as they are likely a more affordable option.

In fact, Lowe's is selling a shed for just $2,107.80 on its website.

The Heartland Rockport measures 8 feet by 12 feet, has a deep roof overhang, and siding to protect from rot, decay, and insects.

Additionally, it comes with a transom window above the door for added natural light and a treated floor system with “professional grade appearance and enhanced durability,” Lowe’s said on its website.

Other features include pre-hung doors with heavy-duty hinges, treated and engineered wood siding, and a 10-year limited material warranty.

Walmart is another retailer selling affordable tiny homes.

The Meadowbrook shed from the bran brand Best Barns measures 10 feet high by 12 feet long by eight feet wide.

It comes with all required hardware for assembly like door hinges, latch, nails, hurricane hangers, glue for gussets, and an instruction manual.

Plus, shoppers can utilize the second-floor loft area for even more storage.

A couple built a tiny home for $20,000 using free and cheap materials with a monthly payment of less than $300.

Plus, The U.S. Sun went inside a tiny home community where rent is as low as $350 and you can try before you buy.
