Who builds them

Fifty years in construction. Three turning steel into rent.

HOME9 is built on the Hanks family's 50+ years of construction and engineering work out of Fort Worth, Texas. We design and manufacture the duplexes in-house in our own shop — a finished, income-ready unit lands on your lot without a general contractor in sight.

The duplex

One steel shell. Two private studios.

Each HOME9 duplex starts as a single shipping container and splits into two fully private 160-square-foot studio apartments — 320 square feet total. Every studio gets its own bathroom, kitchenette, and climate control, so it rents and operates like an independent unit, not a shared bunkhouse.

Built in the USA with durable materials and in-house quality control, then delivered and connected wherever your lot is.

For park & land owners

Why owners put HOME9 on their lots.

A container duplex isn't a novelty — it's a faster, cheaper way to turn an empty lot into two rented studios.

01High return, low cost in place

More affordable to put on the ground than site-built or traditional manufactured housing, with stronger rental returns per square foot.

02Stable, predictable income

Owners typically replace a $350/month RV lot with around $1,600/month in duplex rental income from the same footprint.*

03Fast, simple hookup

Ready in roughly 90 days. Connects to 200-amp electrical service, a water hose, and an RV sewer line — no septic or foundation work.

04Potential value

Estimated potential value of about $150,000 per container duplex, and units may be eligible for Section 8 housing assistance depending on your local housing authority.*

In the shop

From steel coil to move-in ready.

Every duplex is finished and quality-checked in-house before it leaves the floor.
