WHAT BROUGHT ME TO CZcams: I worked at Goldman Sachs, in Private Equity, and built up a $100M holding company. But after being in Wall Street for so long, I got tired of managing hundreds of millions for the rich. Investing was for the few not the many. F that. You all are the reason I do this. We as a society need to get rich together. My mission is to create 100,000 business owners, I hope you’re one.

@CodieSanchezCT Holy shit I normally have to watch 10-15 videos before I subscribe to a channel... I have seen this one and the Garbage truck start up you did a couple days ago... The ode to Ace Ventura made me INSTANTLY hit the subscribe button. Also would 100% love to see what you can do with one of these for Air BnB. I live in the panhandle so that was one of my first thoughts when the video started!
Thanks for such great content! I have two SFR with great profit potential but looking for funding or JV!
Come one Codie. You selling course too?!
I thought you were different.
@@vd.s6158 Hmm It CLEARLY states that it is free... how that ends up only Codie knows but for now you are jumping the gun specially with the information provided clearly stating the opposite of what you are saying.
Nipples
Read the google reviews for Bob's container's, it's horrific. they do not meet deadlines, will not pick up their phones, and the homes are not livable according to one person due to ventilation and condensation issues. I was all in on this until I saw that.
Just verified- True. One person said reviews were deleted, then went on to saying: " When my build was finally done, they then wanted 75% more than the formally agreed upon price. I had to take them to court and bc Texas is backwards, the judge said that they only wanted to make me “whole.” By returning my deposit. "
One thing to keep in mind, is online reviews versus litigation and BB ratings. While I don't doubt his business is free of complaints, people go out of their way to shout from the online heaven's of google and yelp reviews while being 1000% in the wrong and playing victim more than ever. Delays may have been advised to the client or a direct result of the client changing plans things last minute etc. Likewise the clients lack of investigation to city/county/state compliance for their build PRIOR to placing the order. Again not saying this business 100% on the up and up, but way to many professional victims on the internet because they get thier feelings hurt in 2020's. So you have to research reviewers as much as the company anymore.
@@boboso7238 this !!!!
Look for context, peeps
Even in Political arenas
@@boboso7238I wouldn't run to buy a container from him, but the concept of a small home is useful.
Thank you for sharing this thank God
As an architect and construction manager, I’m impressed and intrigued. The things I didn’t see addressed, however, are site improvements (access, utilities, landscaping); code compliance; and permitting.
Great point. We're trying to actually keep these under 30 minutes so can't cover it all. BUT go to their website all site plans and details are actually open source.
@@CodieSanchezCT Thanks, Codie, I just wanted to point out that there are (significant) costs associated with these things and they can vary widely depending on the site. Also, I visited Bob’s website, and saw a header called “Permitting” but saw no info under it.
Hey codei I love watching 😅ur videos ur an inspiration are u going to invest into this i learn a lot frome u
@@XanthrochroidPermits and consents will vary, depending on which territory you are operating in and how close and/or difficult utility connection takes or costs. If like you, your new to the concept, ask to speak to a buyer in the local area you want to develop your purchase. Often they can quickly give a contemporary insight into what amount you should budget for.
If you are still unsure, employ a quantity surveyor to give you a tailored step by step blueprint.
@@giffgaffnettwork5626 Yes, I’ve been in design and construction for 30 years; these are exactly the points I’m making.
Yes, buy one container and use it for Airbnb and document the process for us to watch and learn from the beginning to the end😊. Thanks for all of the knowledge you share with us.
I agree
Yes Go for it.
You do it. You don’t need a tear sheet or any advanced underwriting techniques in order to know how well this would go for you. The vid has the guidelines. And this is just a fix n flip. I believe in you. 💪
Love this idea
Buy one high end container and buy two low end containers
And see which is more profitable
I like the idea but I hate the fact that America is getting to the point that normal houses are unaffordable and will all have to live in small prefabricated shipping containers.
Yep, Ready Player One levels of coping now.
@@angrycrypto465 what did they call it, the stacks? What a miserable existence. The audiobook was way better than the movie ever could have been.
You're being overdramatic, it's not like traditional houses have significant advantage over this anyways
With inflation and mismanagement. It’s going to get worst. So consider this the good ol’ days .
It’s great that Americans are choosing alternative ways of living you are just being irrational
respect this guy for thinking out side the container haha
It's not a new concept. People have been making these for the last few decades. Still cool though.
@@joelcruz9415yeah popularity due to housing prices has increased demand for these things for sureee. I remember seeing a shipping container house in my neighborhood 10-15 years ago thinking “what in the hell is that” nowadays it doesn’t seem crazy to live in a shipping container 😂
@@joelcruz9415 Some people may have been making these, but he's done a great job commercializing and expanding.
@@joelcruz9415 most people just build a van like that , and you can take it were you want!
@alexrusu6417 I would rather buy a bigger RV with better amenities than live in a van.
Doesn't always work this easy. Not many places allow for somebody to just place a container home in a lot. You'd either have to build a home first or do it under the table
🎉🎉🎉 This has got to be one of my favorite videos so far. From the Man you interviewed to what kind of products he offers. He’s a very smart guy. Thank you Codie for all of your videos.
Blessings,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
This is what America is all about. Congratulations to Bob and his hard work paying off.
6:09 he's using land under the power lines, it's cheap land and not many other uses for it - smart
You're exactly right. Terrible for microphones great for rent.
What kind of land is it? Pls describe
he is not too smart arguing with his customers in google reviews which suck pretty bad..
@@TurkNukemHD I will have to check it out...what were the top issues?
@@1truthseeking8quality of work and timeline seem to be the biggest issues.
This is...by far... the BEST business video I've seen in 15 years. Even from Codie, CZcams, or otherwise. I've run several businesses since 2005, and every one of the principals discussed in this video is relevant to current business success. The juice... listen to how he's solved all of the inefficiencies. Funding being the top. Him honestly sharing information with an audience of 1.12 million is gold for any entrepreneur, new and experienced!!! Pay attention all! Cheers.
Love this format Codie - very honest and insightful POV business tour!
Codie, your content is just amazing. Keep up the good work.
It's good to see you doing this type of video again.
They’re not accounting for so many costs. Site work? Permits? Trenching? Backfill? Electrical panel upgrades? Water runs? Sewer runs? Electric runs? Container homes are not that much more cost effective than traditional construction and the exit cost will f**k you. You’ll lose money on these homes whereas traditional construction you’ll make money. These are a complete piece of sh*t. A lot of municipalities won’t allow these and lenders won’t touch it. $15M sounds like a lot, but not in spaces like these when you’re selling $200k products. I sold $3M in ADUs in the last 4 weeks.
What's and ADU? Where can I find information on the products you sell?
This dude is selling the boxes. That's the business. You're worrying about the part that the customer takes care of..
@@chrismay2298 that’s exactly the problem. There are 25 better alternatives that are nicer and just as much when you account for everything, but those companies handle everything. The consumer I’ll end up spending $200k when it’s all said and done for a piece of crap.
So much negativity... but Bob is killing it. Stop Hating!!!
@@trendsdistribution4872 it’s not negativity. It’s misleading.
Awesome video, so many layers with really good info. Thanks Codie.
Shipping containers are narrower. Then the lens on this camera. Is making them out to be. A shipping container is only 8' wide. Before you install the walls. To hide the wiring and plumbing. Hight is usually 10' You would need to go. A bare minimum of two wide. To have a decent amount of. Breathing and elbow room. Three containers wide, at 40' deep. Is perfect. H 10' W 24' X L 40' before the walls and flooring are added.
This was one of my favorite shows of yours. This feeds amazing ideas into my head. This was awesome. I think you should purchase one and go deeper into the total actual costs from start to finish.
35k to expensive for what it is
People spend more than that on a used car 😅
So interesting. I had always wondered about these. Thanks for sharing!
Yes do buy one and document the process of purchase, site build, permitting, zoning monthly utility cost. I would also suggest a follow up with a customer who already purchased a container say a year ago, to get a cost of owning after receiving delivery. Any temp or moisture issues etc. perhaps a volunteer or paid survey of their experience. This is while you’re venturing into your own purchase for us to follow. Just an idea from a follower.
Agreed. We need to know the true cost.
She obviously doesn't reply to great comments like this. She will 100% not be doing this.
I offer a course on how to DIY build your own shipping container home 🏡!
@@ryan123004 send me it
Anything not tied to the actual unit itself is outside of the builder's control. Permits, land costs, hookup costs, etc are different not just state to state but town to town.
Wow this guy just pulled a Henry Ford. Most people might assume Ford came up with the automobile but no he came up with the assembly line. He dominated the industry because he had first advantage on the assembly line and its much faster means of production. This guy is just taking Fords idea and bringing it to construction(agile construction they mentioned in video) I still give Bob credit because he is bringing it to the construction industry is still an original idea even if we already have assembly lines in other industries .
Exactly what I was thinking!
Ford perfected the assembly line, he didn't invent it.
no he did not it was George Washington Carver. Give credit to where its due
Air bnb has been on a Downtrend.
i really love watching your videos i bought one of your courses on contrarian thinking and it’s super super helpful, i love and appreciate it
The future of business!! Great video!!!
Well executed and very informal video. It's absolutely amazing what you can do with the containers. Virtually no overhead, built to scale and specifications, and customizable in almost every environment with ubiquitous potential. Im excited to buy one myself
Codie, you continue to amaze and impress. I love your dedication to helping people see and go after a vision of what's possible. Loved seeing you in person in Orlando with Pace and Jamil.
These type of videos got me to know you some time ago. Thank you for the great content and open our minds to owning a Small Business and support local economies
Love your new format, Codie!! This one and the next episode with the trash truck business are amazing!! So many nuggets of knowledge in both!! Looking forward to seeing more of these!
I love the pacing of your videos. Killing it! 👊🏻
Yes Codie, for sure. it will be interesting. thank you!💝
You have missed the most important part of every building. The foundation!
Are they providing temporary footing for the containers? Which means they gotta be replaced in 10 years or so...OR they expect owners to come up with temporary/permanent footing, which means they need get structural engineer involved.
What does that mean
Can you elaborate
@@RiRi-ku6xz You can't just put these or any container or storage on dirt/soil and start using them. They need to have foundation like any other structure you see out there.
What part of my comment is not clear?
That would be a great video. Maybe Bob or Codi could do a delivery and setup video.
The city or county code would most likely determine the foundation options based on the lot and the structure.
The Structural engineer would give you the foundation solution.
Love it! ♥️ great story about jumping into an opportunity in unfamiliar territory, feeling the fear, yet going for it, learning as you go and finally… crushing it 😁 I like this dude! Cool, cool company!!! ♥️
Fantastic video! I love what you do Corie Sanchez and thank you Bob for sharing.
I love your sense of humor Cody I love the funny parts thank you for creating such great content can't wait for the next one to come out
this is awesome!! keep up with the series, i am exciter to watch more epidosed and gucing Learn
Thank you I love your content. Fun and informative.
Bob!!! You are amazing for sharing so much information! I love how you just share, and don’t circle around information asked. You’re awesome!!!!
Codie, thank you so much for the time. We enjoyed every moment.
My advice to everyone is this : if you want to grow big this year especially in your finances. Be willing to make investments. Saving is great but investing puts you on a pedestal where you wouldnt have to worry about savings as you do now. Thanks to larysa Caba, my portolio is doing really great and im proud of the decisions i made last year.
I feel one Of the greatest challenges that we first timers face in the ma rket is that we end up losing all we have,making it difficult to find ourselves back to our feet. My biggest advice is to always seek the services of a professional just like I did when I ventured into it for the first time. Big thanks to Larysa Caba. I now make huge profits by weekly through her services while still learning to stand on my own.
I think she trades for everyone I meet. I met her twice at a meeting in Germany and after her lectures from Ella I had to personally ask her to be my financial advisor. she is definitely good.
I just looked up her name online. she is licensed with credible certificates and has an amazing track record. Thank you for the message.
I definitely will like to know more
I feel this is quite an easy one. You already have her name which makes it easy for you. Just look up her name online. I’m sure you will come across her. That’s how I found her too.
Just subscribed. Amazing content. Thanks to all the Team who make possible all the videos!
One of your best vids yet. Def get one and Airbnb it. Well done.
From the team at Decor Essentials south Africa, your videos are amazing and gives us ideas for how to assist our clients better
Wow!! Very insightful 👏 Great idea!! Thank you 😁
The main question is WHERE can i put a container?
You have to buy or rent the land
Amazing video thank you so much for creating it I learned a lot
Loving you Cody! ❤ You're doing an AMAZING work!
Such a cool concept to show us how irl businesses are operated!! Feels good to have discovered your channel
i love how you break stuff down simplistically how a business works
I've been watching Bob's Containers for like 6 months and just got into Cody's channel. Love them both
🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for your comment. Can you please share this guys link with me??? Thank you 🙏
Blessings,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
Indeed Bob is a great guy with a high mentality.
They're diverse ways and strategies to get the bag in the world of today, you just have to have the right mindset to be able to think outside the box.
Great interview and fascinating business model.
This dude definitely used to work at Amazon.
He was an engineer!
We can smell our own! Not surprised he’s killing it.
Thank you Codie for bringing us this info. This young man makes me feel like it’s easy to make money.
Hey Codie! I’m actually in the process of rolling out my own Airbnb development properties that utilize individual renovated shipping containers and focus on elevated essential architecture + indoor outdoor living. And I will be buying my units from Bob’s as they are definitely the industry standard at this point . As an Architect, Builder & entrepreneur, I’d love to help you design your container since I already have designs down for one bedroom and two bedroom units using 20 foot and 40 foot containers. My company is SA+C Inc. Follow along all you container fans out there
Congrats to this guy and his partner, great idea but more importantly, follow through
To do the AirBNB the trickiest part is the land and compliance/city codes. Plopping down a nice container and putting it on AIRBNB is easy
so good, great show, makes me want to buy one!!
I love that he is re-using containers! ❤❤❤

Have you considered insofast insulation? It is like an ICF panel for containers. It glues on and has stud
imbeds for attaching stuff. cool product.
yes! Definitely buy one, ABNB it and track it on your channel!
So inspiring!
My three favorite channels: Codie Sanchez, Stock Brotha, & How Money Works. Make my week complete! 🔥 🔥 🔥
The agile building model is not new...it's how all track home construction has been done for decades.
A friend of mine bought a pre-built home (not a container) from an out-of-town vendor to be installed as a backyard home. Problem is, when he got it brought in, he couldn't get the local city officials to certify it. Was a huge problem that went on for over 2 years, ended up costing him so much extra out-of-pocket, plus the time where it couldn't be used....which was devastating. So I'm still a big fan of pre-built homes, etc, but you have to be 100% sure about the full path for the site prep, utilities, and most importantly, the permits.
Love this!!!!
Great video watch it twice Thank you! How do you document your builds and what SOP software do you use?
Very inspiring idea 💡
Codie, you found a guy who can polish a turd and sell it QUICK. The guy is a GENIUS.
smart and humble
I haven't watched the whole video but I hoped they mentioned that you have to check with wherever you are buying your land and the laws especially zoning. City and county may vary and even your state may have laws in place where *you cannot build something like this on purchased land*. Even if you do buy you may have to pay big fees for permitting and wait a whole lot of time to be approved by authorities to build something like this on your land.
@ 13:40 the spray foam thickness says alot.
Love this! My son just got this bright idea and he’s 17 and in the construction industry. First framing and now electrical work 😅. Proud mom moment 😅
As a single parent with a nasty divorce it makes me feel like there is hope that I’ll one day have my own space from this video. Thank you! 😊
This ain’t about you
@@DestinationJapan95get outa here it’s totally about her if she wants it to be. Get a life man
Congrats raising a bomb ass kid after heartbreak!
Congratulations!
@@DestinationJapan95but it kind of is who else would of posted that comment talking about her son in a positive light like she did
What I would do is weld on some support structures to the top of the container and then attach metal support beams and structuring. Lastly attach the metal amish style roofing on a slant to one side with a small slant on the other side with a short guttered over-hang.
Property I missed in Winneshiek Co Iowa...had a ranch house in country(5miles) with 4 rented mobile homes.Winn Co said to new buyer they had to remove the mobiles. This was a newer house lived in by owner. Would love to see a video anything like this in IOWA....They like combines sitting around
Absolute legend!!!! I love what he did and how he did it!
I’ve been sharing your video like Crazy. Codie I couldn’t respect you more.
i even share it while driving through downtown Austin ;)! heh
TY Codie
Yes please! buy one of the containers from bob because I’m super interested to see how it goes for future business endeavors myself.
Definitely, it would be a great idea to buy one for the ARNB project and film it with details!!!!
I love the bit about SOPs. I have worked in factories, food science, customer service, healthcare, and now corporate/office work. It amazes me how every job I have held has SOPs besides every corporate/office job! And honestly, the corporate/office jobs, even though they pay higher, have been the jobs I dread/hate the most! So many lazy and incompetent people in corporate/office jobs. I keep asking my wife to start our own business, because we are both jacks of all trades. Love the channel and your content Codie! Hopefully, one day my wife will believe in me enough to start my own business.
Definitely an Amazing idea! I could see myself creating a neighborhood of Shipping containers...
Wowwwwww this episode is fantastic!!
This would be a solid Mid Term rental for traveling nurses or any other kind of digital nomads, contracted workers, etc.
FYI - Not sure if you can make edits once uploaded but there’s a typo at 8:25. “Reduest” should be “Request”. Great video btw!
Bob's innovative approach to recycling shipping containers into homes and bars is not just sustainable but also financially savvy. It's inspiring to see how leveraging media exposure can significantly boost business growth and market presence. 🚀
Check local building codes to see if allowed , plus check if container can be delivered in your lot.
Would love to see you buy and air bnb one. I am going to look into this a bit more. I love realestate and this is a great niche.
Love this! I want one in Australia ❤
This was really cool!
I love the reason why you started this CZcams. 👍👍👍
Where is Bob located? Can these be bought online with delivery or pick up instructions?
Fascinating 💗
Their competitor Compact Living has much better pricing and products, including tiny homes. We bought one from Compact Living last year for my mom to live in our backyard as a casita.
that's raaad homies , love ya!
I love your videos!
