It’s no secret: the lack of affordable housing is a huge issue facing the United States today. Fortunately, there’s a range of prefab and kit home companies out there that offer exceptionally affordable structures. These compact dwellings might be light on features and square footage, but they’re available at a price point that can’t be beat. Read on for five prefabricated and kit homes you can buy for less than $20,000.

Note: These prices do not include soft costs (like site surveys or geotechnical reports) or hard costs (like the cost of purchasing or acquiring land, shipping, and hooking up to local utilities). Where noted, pricing may only include the shell of the building.
