2. What if They Built Houses Like Cars?*

BOXABL

BOXABL is the tech construction company bringing assembly line automation to the housing industry. With their patented technology and 53 patent filings, BOXABL believes they have the potential to disrupt a massive and outdated trillion-dollar building construction market. And they just reserved the ticker symbol BXBL on Nasdaq!

Most houses take seven months to complete. BOXABL can put one out of the assembly line every four hours, including electrical, HVAC, and plumbing! Now, the company is raising funds and has made shares available to the public, but the round is closing soon on StartEngine.

Currently, shares are being offered at $0.80 per share. With a $1,000 minimum investment, you can join 40,000 investors to help solve the housing crisis.

Time is running out to invest in BOXABL on StartEngine. The opportunity to invest in BOXABL on StartEngine will close on March 29th. The offering will remain open on DealMaker after that.
