I’m glad to see you moving forward with this idea - I know I had some negative comments early in the thread but I better understand what you’re doing now and it makes great sense for the target market, etc.
Years ago I looked into alternatives to stick built homes, and was particularly interested in factory built wall panels (could be wood frame or foam core, or whatever). What I learned about home building was that the foundations are never quite right not level, square, etc, so stick building in the field allows the framers to compensate and deliver a square and plumb home. Solving the foundation issue was (then, I haven’t followed up in years) key to being able to economize on the rest of the construction process. Your approach, using square and true steel containers, bypasses this concern entirely.
