Recently, Musk decided to sell most of his real estate portfolio to focus all his resources on his mission to get to Mars and his other companies.
In fact, he recently revealed that he lives in a 375 sq ft prefab in Boca Chica, Texas. He admitted in a tweet that his home costs US$50,000 and that he rents it from Spacex.

My primary home is literally a ~$50k house in Boca Chica / Starbase that I rent from SpaceX. It’s kinda awesome though.

Only house I own is the events house in the Bay Area. If I sold it, the house would see less use, unless bought by a big family, which might happen some day.
Of course, fans were pretty impressed at the way Musk was living and did some digging. They managed to find out that Musk is reportedly living in a home from Boxabl.
Boxable is a company that aims to lower the cost of homeownership for people. They provide fold out homes that can be set up just about anywhere in a matter of hours.
Their homes come with all the necessities that one could possibly need such as a full-sized kitchen, a bathroom, living room and more.
They started their company with a basic Casita home. However, Boxabl is in the process of creating designs that will fit the needs of different-sized families.
