I can only assume that by “dream collection” they are talking about the act of collecting your hopes and dreams to smash them up and turn them into shareholder value

It's good that people are getting a chance to build equity that otherwise wouldn't be. Home ownership is one of the very few reliable avenues for wealth creation in the US. If you don't own your own home you will work until you die. Probably if you do as well, but definitely if you don't.

They definitely look like shit though. I agree w others that duplexes even would make more sense.

the value of real estate is directly related through rents and mortgages to porky's ability to extract surplus value from the working class. it's only a reliable avenue for wealth creation because the system is rigged from the ground up so that most people will be stuck working until they die. building a bunch of cheaply made tiny homes in a massive sprawl won't fundamentally change that.
