Apartment rentals: Expensiveness of Housings?
I don't like the fact that all the apartments and houses cost very much for minimum wage people. Can you ask a house builder to build a hut or shack so that you can actually afford it? As long as you can sleep in it I'm satisfied. It can be size of a tent or a sleeping bag?

First, let's watch the diction.

Second, you can consider building your own home--a mud hut. Take water, dirt and sticks and mix together. Viola! You have a home, and dirt cheap, too. No pun intended.

Good luck!

You have to buy the land to build your structure on so don't forget the cost of that, too...

You may want to rent a furnished room instead of an apartment. When I got divorced I moved into a motel. It didn't cost much, I had my room cleaned and I had a swimming pool plus they had a restaurant and bar. And long ago I rented some rooms out in someone's house. I had my own entrance and rooms and privacy and it was very cheap plus it was really cute and they kept it so very nice. I found all of these in the local paper.

How tough it really is.Because the economy is bad,demand for rental
apartments grows,this causes rent to increase because more people that had homes can pay rent more than most can.No kidding
I am moving closer to work because 25 miles one way to work 250.00 a month for gas.Rent 700.00 for a room not a place for myself.A 1 bedroom in West Los Angeles is over 1300.00.I can't pay that.
Been slow at work for 3 months,32 hrs instead if 56 hours.Either you get a trade that pays better or get 2 jobs.This is serious.


turtle crap
it might be more expensive to have someone to make a hut then rent one


maxmom56
No because zoning regulations will not permit that type of dwelling.

Most builders have models that they use and follow but you can reduce the cost by requesting that they install laminate flooring instead of tile or less expensive cabinets or inexpensive fixtures. These are all ways to cut cost. Try it!
