Not sure what you consider low cost...I've never seen any that I thought was reasonable. Quite a while back, someone posted a link to instructions for building your own. I'm sure you can google that if you're interested.
I do have a suggestion about building your own, though. I don't have room or I would be doing this.
One idea I saw on Trash to Treasure on Decorating Cents. Take an old desk, remove the drawers, remove some or all of the wood that is under the drawers so that you basically have a desk with drawer holes but empty space inside. Or perhaps you could cut holes in them and put them back....then cover the openings with some sheer fabric, and viola! you have a cool cat tree for next to nothing.
The other idea I came up with on my own was to build a staircase. Or better yet, a ramp. Use a tape measure to determine how much wood you'll need - prop it against the wall at a reasonable angle and note the length. (6ft I think was the figure I came up with. Then get a piece of cheap wood in that length - or you could get two pieces and secure them together with L brackets or something like that. Make sure it's at least 1/2 thick or more - you don't want it to get bouncy. Carpet it, and viola again! You have a cat ramp. Be sure to secure it to the wall and/or floor.
You could add a ledge at the top - just cut a hole in it so the cats can get onto it.

I just got a great tree for $109 with no shipping from the website below. It came in about 5 days and was easy to put together. You can also google cat tree and you will get many websites with cat furniture.

Wal-Mart has cheap ones, but they fall apart easily. I know. I had one. Probably the cheapest ones would be finding a handyman friend and commissioning him or her to build one for you. Also, keep an eye out at thrift stores and at ebay.

www.armarkat.com They also sell on ebay. I have purchased 3 cat trees from them. All have been sturdy, well made, and shipped fast.
