In one of the videos on the site it is explained that they are currently targeting people who want to build "backyard houses" or "ADUs" that are popular in some places like in California. Family members can live in them or you can rent them out, provided it has a foundation, power, plumbing etc.

To me it's a modern cabin. And a place to live while a primary residence is being built. And then it'll be a place for visitors to stay.

I absolutely love this, and I really want one. Have you sold many/any yet? What stage of development is the company at?

Also, what sort of time frame can I hope to just order one and have it show up in a month or two?

Probably a way to industrialize it a bit. Run a management company that leases these out, handles site prep and paperwork and offer the homeowner a buyout option after a few years.

Add an Airbnb service on top that markets, cleans and maintains it for those that want to dip their toes into it.

Then start stacking them on top of each other until something gives.
