I once lived in a tiny house and loved it. One day I'll live in one again. Think about how much space you ACTUALLY use in your current house and then set your priorities for a tiny house. It CAN be done.

Why have a tiny house:
  • Forces you to scale down the 'stuff'!
  • Lower bills - sometimes no bills!
  • Less to clean
  • Forces you to be organized
  • You'll be an instant celebrity and they're fun
  • You can be mobile - so the scenery always changes
  • Lower or no taxes
  • Less dependence on the grid
  • You'll want to be outdoors more
  • They're cozy
  • Avoid hosting Thanksgiving (I hate to cook!)
  • Live within your means (great for retirees & college students)
  • More money for the things you really love


Love this house because they go into more about the solar power system and some of the building specifications it uses:

 

 

Tiny Rental Cottage Not sure if tiny living is for you? Maybe you'd like to give it a try. There's a cute little tiny home in Oregon that can be rented by the night to see if it's something you might want to do permanently.
