Experts at Money, a credit broker for consumer credit products, released the first-ever moon mortgage guide that reveals living on the lunar surface would cost $325,067 a month. ‘With Earth becoming increasingly populated and space technology advancing, it won't be long before lunar living becomes the new normal,’ reads the study. And the cost per pound transportation data was gathered from SpaceX, to calculate the amount for shipping to the lunar surface. According to the moon mortgage guide, the first fully functioning house on the moon would be $48,454.063, which is a high price for a home considering there are mansions on Earth for a fraction of the cost. The guide also tells prospective residents to expect an average property markup of 27.61 percent once humans trade in the overly populated Earth for the quiet, barren lunar landscape.
