Steel-built prefab homes are a new way to tackle the housing crisis, and ORCA has just released their Sandpiper model, a 418 sq. ft. tiny house that’s built using a pop-up factory — sometimes on-site! There’s no trailer, which allows for the 13-foot width that leaves the home feeling extra spacious.

ORCA also takes advantage of the brilliant Murphy bed, which allows the living room to easily double as the bedroom. That leaves lots of square footage for a full kitchen and a large bathroom with a walk-in shower and washer/dryer. The home pictured below costs $166K (USD).

This is a 2003 Forest River Sandpiper Toy Hauler Trailer that has been renovated into a tiny house on wheels. It has approximately 184-square-feet of space to offer inside. This trailer is located in Sarasota, Florida.

The unit was stripped down all the way to the studs and completely rebuilt from the inside-out. The owners planned to keep it for themselves, but their plans have changed so now it’s available for $16,500 according to the listing on Tiny Home Builders.
