I've seen a few prefab buildings sold by merchants on Amazon's site, most seem to be aimed at the ADU (backyard cottages for rentals basically) market.
I'm curious to watch and see how long before a big company like Amazon or AirBnB starts offering their own standardized ADU build-outs that are integrated with their smart locks and other services. I would think they could use their scale to come up with something that could be sold and built for a reasonable price.

They are technology companies with large margins, the capex requirements and margins they would see going down a manufactured housing path make no sense for their business models and other people are already willing to do this for them.
