Hee hee.
I looked up a residential suite the size of our condo, and the purchase price is roughly 2.2 million dollars. The monthly maintenence fee, on top of the purchase price itself, is twice our mortgage, and twenty times our monthly maintenence fee.
A 450 foot unit is 200 grand plus. The economy unit, with no kitchen, is $153,000. For 300 sq feet. If I wanted to pay that much for an apartment, I'd move to downtown San Francisco or Tokyo.
It seems neat, but I can't think of an income level at which I would want to live on that thing. For the price of any suite, there's a much larger and cheaper land-based home available.
But it sure looks cool in a Discovery Channel Extreme Engineering way.
