Chapter 1

Taking the Leap: Becoming a Tiny House Owner

The Tiny House Movement has gone a long way from being a quirky housing trend into an actual way of life for people who are ready to down size their lives for practical reasons. Students who are burdened by student loans but prefer to lead independent lives as they enter the workforce find the option to build a tiny house as their starter house.

Entrepreneurs who want to take control of their life by starting their own business find downsizing to tiny house living as the most practical approach to managing finances as they start a business. Older folks who are at the cusp of retirement age have been known to sell off their property, the house they built their life and family in, to wind down and settle into old age in a much more manageable space which a tiny house is able to provide.

There are a lot more people out there with equally valid reasons for downsizing to tiny house living. This is the reason why the Tiny House Movement has gained in momentum through the years, taking on more advocates of this very practical, downsized and streamlined lifestyle.

If you are considering about building and living in your own tiny house there are a few things to consider before making the commitment and taking the leap. It is no different from buying your first house. It is an important life decision transitioning to a tiny house and live life based on the terms and limitations it will set.

Find the time to think about the long term impact of living in a tiny house. The time you need to invest in building the house should be considered. Not to mention, the resources you need to build and maintain it. So bring out the trusty paper and pen and find the time to list down the pros and cons of living in your very own tiny house.

The average two story house in the US has a land area of 500 to 1000 square feet and can set new owners back up to $500,000 and upwards depending on design, amenities, location, etc. The average tiny house, on the other hand, one that can accommodate one to two people, has a floor area of 100 to 250 square feet, and it will only cost $25,000 to $50,000 to build.

The difference in building costs is one of the reasons why tiny houses are so appealing to people. There is a world of difference in savings between the standard house purchase and the tiny house build. Unless you are starting a family and planning on making a big one, then there really is no point in investing in a 1000 square feet home if its just going to be you in there or with your partner.

Another upside to tiny house living is that you have three options for building. You can either, build a stand-alone tiny house, invest in a trailer, or purchase a tiny house in a tiny house cluster or village. It is all a matter of checking with your local real estate broker or developer about what options are available for you in your state.

Whatever kind of tiny house you choose, guaranteed, you will be able to find materials and builders support. There are tiny house contractors in every state that you can consult with and take on their services to build your very own tiny house.

If you have always wanted to get off the consumerist, materialist bandwagon and start a minimalist, use-only-what-you-need, sustainable lifestyle, then living in a tiny house will allow you to do exactly that. It will be difficult to cram unnecessary things into a 100 to 200 square feet space. You will be forced to be very particular and conscientious about what to purchase and add into your house because you have such a limited space to place them in.

If you are the sort of a person who has more of an outdoorsy lifestyle and prefer mountain climbing, kayaking, hiking, rock climbing for most parts of the day instead of cooped up inside the house aw ting, a tiny house is exactly what you need. It is super functional as a place to sleep, rest, and eat in between your outdoor adventures.

Although almost all 50 states allow building tiny house by law, finding the perfect location can still be a bit of a challenge. For most people, location is the key when making the investment on a tiny house or any house for that matter.

If you are going to be a stickler for location and considers it a very important factor in making that final decision to live in a tiny house, then it is best to check with your local housing board first and see what options are available for you in terms of location. It is best to decide on the project after making sure that you have your desired location confirmed and given the seal of approval by the state.
