Small Housing Australia Report Help

Small Housing in Australia

Introduction

The purpose of this report is to assess the presence of Tiny Homes and Shipping Container Homes which have become a rising trend in the Australian, and international housing market in the contemporary world. The reason for this being directly proportional to housing affordability, which is getting more difficult by the day, has initiated a trend by which potential home owners are reverting to such homes for the purpose of utility and affordability. In the past 20 years, housing prices have seen a rise, with little relief for those who cannot afford to but need to buy them.

After all, they need a place to live, and that too within their own means. For this reason Small Housing Australia provides them with an opportunity to realize their goals, in an environment which is becoming more and more adverse in the proper housing domain. Our initiative provides a cheaper, simpler and much more convenient means for the customer to build a home for themselves and for their family. As a small-housing initiatives company, it urges for the local and federal bodies to grant their cooperation and support for the purpose of developing such housing means in the Australian suburbs.

Tiny Homes

Building tiny homes is a great facilitation for students, those from the lower middle or working classes who acquire good jobs and have no place to live, the ones who wish to have a temporary place to stay while they build their permanent homes. As Small Housing Australia we offer a much needed facility to cater to this growing trend which has been rising both in the UK and the US and has now reached Australia. Essentially, those who aim to be facilitated have three categories: those who cannot afford to in general, those who have a mobile lifestyle and those who temporarily need a home in the hopes that they can save up and acquire a permanent one.

According to Beth (2019) small houses, also known as tiny homes are already being touted as having immense benefits, especially if perceived with the “TLC” which is the “Tiny Living Community” perspective, offering a safe, cost-saving and space utilizing environment for those who either cannot acquire a proper home, or wishes to save on the rest cost, or enjoys community living in an affordable manner. This ideal is also supported by BBC News (2019) which focuses on the four different kinds of people who enjoy living in small ones: essentially surfers like Tom Dutton who need a mobile home, couples like Tom and Harriet who do not find the permanent house with loans and mortgages attractive,  Clare and Aubrey Fry who were saving up and learning to manage space until they got a proper home, and the youth who aim to acquire independence but do not have the funds to acquire a permanent home are all the viable recipients and enthusiasts of tiny homes. BBC further quotes Carwyn Jones’ course on “building tiny homes” has inspired a huge amount of youth to consider this cheap, temporary, and independent option.

They are however groundless and require minimal home supplies ownership, so one has to operate on a restricted budget (Carras, 2019), however MacArthur (2019) denotes the support of Jim Martin from a legal background who has been constantly in support of tiny homes as being beneficial, through its many benefits, foremostly, the one regarding the provision of affordable housing for the poor and secondly, by its ability to infuse the public and private domains through a built community the feeling of civic community. And for this reason Small Housing Australia has embarked upon this multi-beneficial initiative to assist all segments of society currently targeted by high housing prices and mortgage facilities.

Shipping Container Homes

Shipping container homes are another alternative to tiny housing; although a subcategory of it are much bigger in size, and only derive their relevance to tiny housing because it is a make-shift and not permanent home. However, Small Housing Australia provides this service to the the populace as well as there are always those who aim to embark upon an adventure, have relatively more funds, but not enough to be able to construct the ideal house, and for this reason the company offers them the alternative of shipping container homes which are by nature no less than permanent homes.

Yen (2019) brings this case to light by illustrating the example of Brenda Kelly who dreams of constructing the dream house and does not mind the lack of available space, if utilized well. According to Yen she spends $81000 in the construction of this “award-winning” home possessing in every form, the utility of a proper permanent home, with a full-functioning kitchen, outdoor dining area, a personal study, a lounge and even a bedroom with geyser and electricity services available. This view is supported by Erickson (2019) who denotes the importance of the fact that the height and width measurements would need to be considered in order for the construction of container homes in the most environment friendly and sustainable manner. Small Housing Australia therefore believes in both following these standards and appreciates the $ 3.6  million contract for gutter, pavement and curb improvements in a locality which is very suitable for container homes, and aims to carry this sustainable standard forward. Koones (2019) also contributes on the hospitable nature of container living as opposed to many doubts that are possessed adversely of the container perspective. Koones illustrates that container living is a dream scenario for all like Shawn and Mike McConkey’s out there, with the indestructible container maneuvering according to their needs they learnt that containers indeed make very good homes, and for those seeking an adventure upon constructing a unique kind of home, containers are the option to go to, and for such audiences which are also part of the housing market on the demand side, Small Housing Australia aims to tackle their needs accordingly.

 

 

The benefit

The benefits that both tiny homes and shipping container houses offer are immense and combined, however there are also additional benefits that are conferred upon which are environmental, economic, political as well as social, all of them integrative and essential to be able to bring about a positive change, one which Small Homes Australia aims to champion as well.

Foremostly, this housing option is pocket friendly for those who aim to embark upon a housing initiative that is both rudimentary, and helpful in integrating all parts of their lifestyle, and according to Beth (2019) mentioned above, we can note that this temporary, adventurous, affordable and transportable alternative to the conventional houses offers its owners the ability to embark upon a home in a lower budget, especially for younger and lower class segments of the society.

Secondly, this option is environment and energy friendly. The energy costs are much lower as award-winning container owner Brenda Kelly denotes (Yen, 2019). Additionally, these houses, both in their construction and maintenance utilize a lower till no pollution resources when building, as most containers as as they were already existent converted into homes, whilst most tiny homes and container homes are located in the suburbs, away from pollution and producing little pollution both at the time they are built and in future maintenance (Koone, 2019).

Thirdly as Bladen (2019) already mentions, one must note that the government is being slammed for not providing affordable housing, and while Australia’s HDI (Human Development Index) ranks high, it is also brought lower due to its lack of provision of affordable housing, and most people either homeless or unable to acquire a home and suffering because of this are the cause of this. It is therefore important to note that although (already mentioned above) tiny houses and container housing comes with its own downsides of making them at time groundless, small and only temporary homes, this is not always the case, and these issues can be tackled with the help of the benefits that these initiatives possess.

Housing Affordability

Additionally, the company takes into consideration all the needs of its customers, and what most of them face across incomes and wealth is housing affordability problems, whether they are part of the lower class, the lower middle class or the middle class, all those aiming to acquire a home are facing one kind of distress or another. Additionally, there are also added tastes, because of which those who have cultivated them, do not wish to settle for a house lower than their expectations but also within their range, and for that shipping container homes are able to cater to this advanced need, whereas the tiny homes are able to cater to the rudimentary, basic need of having a home to live in and therefore essentially catering to the housing issue problem by providing a temporary, and in some cases a permanent home. It is indeed the most appropriate and effective alternative to rent facilities and complex and helfty, mortgage amounts.
