Since my budget is quite limited, I have been reading more and more about container homes. What do you think about them? Does anyone here have one? When people hear "container home," most initially think, "Hmm..." but if you look around online (I’ve attached an example image from Google), you can really see some impressive results.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how difficult it is to handle the connections and insulation of these homes, or how durable they are. But if it works out, you could start with a small basic house and then add one or two containers in the garden to work on yourself...

If you also put some effort into the exterior appearance of this type of building, it could become a really nice little house, don’t you think?

I can also imagine a garden house that you can live in all year round, but in that case, I would want to buy the land as well^^ I can’t really imagine leasing it.

Sure, I have some experience, but it would still be a big step for me to move out of Berlin...

I’ll look for the atlas. Thanks for the tip^^
