As someone who works directly with shipping containers, I can tell you the last thing I want to do is live in one. Especially a 20 footer. Aside from it being only slightly larger than a prison cell, many containers that end up being sold for homes are first used for hazardous materials. Again, 20s especially.
The empty yard next to us sells 20s for $3-5k so the $40-50k build out prospect seems high to me.
Maintaining its mobility creates structural/foundational limitations that will negatively impact the home. These things are way easier to tip over than you think.
If mobility is a priority than having a home you can easily leave behind along with a fast and reliable form of transportation is a better route.
