Make Your HAVEN Pay For Itself
/Being the proud owner of a beautifully-designed modern home is one thing.
Doing so at virtually no cost to you is another thing entirely.
Enter the NEST sub-option.
One of our three customization packages, the NEST not only offers a posh modern home to call your own but also allows for a separate, entirely self-contained living quarters.
Short-term rental? Long-term rental? Artist retreat? Studio? The possibilities are as big as your imagination, but they all spell one thing: passive income.
We've done the numbers and they're nothing to scoff at...
AIRBNB
The advent of Airbnb has made good design and unique architecture much more accessible for all, allowing us to spend time inside amazing structures we may not be able to otherwise.
The options are seemingly endless - from treehouses to hobbit holes, remote log cabins to super modern minimal dwellings. (You can even stay in Frank Lloyd Wright's house if that's your thing! Yes please.)
Another style of lodging that has soared in popularity on Airbnb is --we'll give you one guess-- modular pre-fab houses!
This off-grid pre-fab house in California's Grass Valley rents for around $200/night, while this prefab cabin in the forest of West Virginia brings in over $200/night.
The New York Times' published a recent article all about the shipping container as a modern home, causing the popularity of container homes to soar.
Because HAVENS are also considered shipping container style homes, we hopped on Airbnb to see what the demand is like for this particular style.
It seems these container homes are in huge demand - for aesthetic, novelty, and genuine curiosity about what it's like to live in one - with 5 stars across the board, and a minimum nightly rental fee of $120. We especially love this one in British Columbia, sitting unexpectedly in a conventional neighborhood.
THE NUMBERS
Several different factors go into determining how much you could rent your HAVEN for on Airbnb: location, interior design, system technologies, proximity to attractions or a destination of some kind, and more.
So let's take an average nightly rental amount, not the lowest, not the highest, which would be roughly $150/night.
If you manage to rent your HAVEN for just one week each month, you're bringing in over $1,000 in passive/supplemental income! Two weeks of guest stays = $2,100/mo. and if you manage to book for the entire month (which many of the modular pre-fab homes on Airbnb are in fact doing!) your HAVEN would be generating an average of $4,500 each month!
So not only would your mortgage be covered, you'd be profiting!
The NEST sub-option can be applied to any HAVEN - The Alder, The Hemlock, or The Cypress.
