That would be unusual. Some basic houses fit on the back of a
semi-trailer, and can be moved and set up in another site. More likely
in regional areas rather than capital cities. There's also the concept
of tiny homes, which is more popular in Europe, I believe. Those can
be towed behind a care, sort of like a semi-permanent caravan.
