Why Millennials and Gen Z Are Embracing Relocatable Homes

Why Millennials and Gen Z Are Embracing Relocatable Homes
Many Australians work tirelessly towards the dream of owning a home. For Millennials and Gen Z, this path is taking an innovative turn. More and more young Australians are opting for relocatable homes to achieve their home ownership dreams, finding that they are not only more affordable but perfectly suit their dynamic and flexible lifestyles.
 


A New Trend in Modern Living

Relocatable homes offer a unique solution to housing challenges many young people face. With skyrocketing property prices making traditional home ownership increasingly unattainable, alternatives like VanHomes present an affordable and stylish option. Our CEO, Vito Russo, highlights this changing trend:

Traditionally, retirees had been the largest buyer market for relocatable homes, but that is changing because they are now 'affordable, stylish, and virtually instant.

— Vito Russo, VanHomes CEO

Affordable and Stylish Housing Solutions

One of the standout features of our VanHomes is their affordability. They range from studios to three-bedroom properties, priced between $65,000 and $136,000. That’s a fraction of what traditional homes cost, making it feasible for young people to step onto the property ladder without the burden of hefty mortgages.

They arrive the same width as a caravan and, once in place, can then be expanded out to provide up to 59 sqm of living space, explains Vito Russo. "That is bigger than some Sydney apartments. They really are instant housing.

Adaptable and Customisable Spaces

Our fully relocatable homes are not just about affordability—they’re also about high-quality living. Millennials and Gen Z are discerning buyers with an eye for contemporary design and functionality, and VanHomes offer a range of styles and options to suit.

Our homes are designed with the latest materials and stylish interiors, providing options to choose colours and finishes that suit your aesthetic preferences. Michelle Reed, a recent buyer, and her daughter collaborated with an interior designer to personalise their VanHomes: "People can't believe it," she says. "They come to visit and think it's going to look like a shipping container."

Instant Setup and No Council Building Approvals Needed

One of the biggest advantages of choosing a VanHome is the ease and speed of setup. Once delivered, our homes can be unpacked and ready within hours.

Once the home is rolled onto the block, it only takes a short period of time to set it up. You can live in them on the same day they are delivered," says Vito Russo.

VanHomes provide almost immediate housing without the stress and expense of an established property. While avoiding traditional construction times, our homes can often be added as a second dwelling without council building approvals, simplifying the process even further.
