You can now find multiple listings for prefabricated homes on Walmart for under $16,000, but you'll inevitably run up against zoning codes.

    All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again. Except uglier and dumber.

      I think there is a big difference between a single room pod that is coming from Walmart and the entire house that Sears sold to be built on site.

      These feels like tech bro bullshit to “disrupt” the housing market.

      'the fuck? Sears homes are legit. I’ve worked on them. As long as the builder followed the instructions they worked fine.

      These shiny sheds? Consumable bullshit.

        Yeah I’d be pro Walmart selling well made sears style homes. Hell, mass produced cheap kit homes would probably make more room for architects to get weird with it like I want out of a house

    Walmart: We now sell prefab homes.

    Customer: What floorplans are available?

    Walmart: Sideways Tupperware. That’ll be $17k and you’ll have to unload it yourself.

    $17k is kinda expensive. You can do better sourcing from elsewhere. And hey, that way you’re not suppporting fkin Walmart.
