So Musk is behind micro-homes, eh?
Everything about these billionaires is creepy.
Check out the name of this micro-home developer, Boxabl. CEO is Paolo Tiramani. Boxabl, a $3 billion start-up [who gets $3 billion for start-up capital, and from whom?] from North Las Vegas, advertisement calls these homes, "Boxabl Casitas." Ooh, how quaint. Think of yourself as a migrant farm worker parked in some remote neck of the Rockies or Sonora Desert.
No way in the world, you cynical capitalist, will these homes be turned into a 5G nightmare. No way. We promise. To seduce, I mean entice customers, Boxabl has set up their warehouse, get this, like a Jurassic Park or a Disney ride. Which one, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? Some folks are buying these @ $50,000 and using them as backyard granny units.
Looks like the company was having communication and production problems. Apparently, $3 billion in start-up capital doesn't buy you much.
Insider's Daniel Geiger and Alex Nicoll found that Boxabl's factory has only produced 400 homes during its first year of operations. Some 8,000 customers have made down payments on Casitas, a 375-square-foot model that folds like a suitcase and costs about $60,000 apiece.
Of the $5.4 million Boxabl pocketed from those payments, over $1 million has been given back at customers' request, the company's cofounder, Galiano Tiramani, said.
One Arizona-based prospective buyer, Max, told Insider that he put $2,400 down for two Boxabl homes in 2021.
