Finally! A tiny house that doesn't cost $200K or your first unborn child.

If you have the skills, tools and (most importantly) the time to build it yourself, then a THoW doesn't have to have a six-figure price.

AND they did it themselves in 10 months. I would love to have heard more about the process they used to build. Did they save money to be able to take off ten months or did they work on the house around their business hours? Did they use recycled items or buy new? (Other than the 2-3 items they did mention were free, etc)

About tiny house no one covers for us information on how to get to to buy one or to park it and what is the cost to park. is it very expensive monthly rent etc. that is the number one most important for people to know

@JuliePavlacka 7 місяців тому

It's hard to answer those questions because it depends on your city/state. They can be difficult to park. We lived in Utah and moved to California because we couldn't find a place close enough to our jobs to justify staying in Utah. Tiny house legislation is getting better, but there's definitely still some red tape on where you can park it. We pay around $900 a month to park our tiny here - which might seem a little steep for some areas, but it's very affordable for this area, about the same price as an RV park but with a better view. And it's less than half of what our rent would have been if we stayed in Utah! Eventually, we'd like to buy some land to put our tiny house on, but right now the laws in the area are just not in our favor to do that. With that said, I've seen people with Tiny's that have a much cheaper rent - we're definitely paying for location here!

@kathypendergrass6701 7 місяців тому

I totally agree. I am a big tiny house fan, however they are so expensive if you don’t build it yourself. Unfortunately, not all of us are talented enough to build a house of any kind. This is a very nice tiny home and I am very happy for this young couple.

@DawnOldham 7 місяців тому

I would encourage you to watch how many tiny home owners say over and over they knew nothing at all about building and learned on the job. They always mention learning through You Tube, and that buying the trailer is the first step of commitment. I'd take the leap if it's something you really want. You only live once and every step you take leads you to the next path in your life!

Your dog is GORGEOUS. I actually stopped the video just to look at her sweet face! Your home feeeels like a "home". It's very well laid out and decorated. The outside style is a great throwback to homes of the past and it's a nice break from the black boxes that are trending right now. (Those look great, too!) You really thought things through very well in the two months you took before buying a trailer and beginning your build. You're all set for being off grid and all set for winter and summer! Overall, this is such an encouraging video because it shows that a beautiful tiny home can still be had for a tiny fraction of the cost of a traditional home! I enjoyed the tour and hearing the why behind many of your decisions! Best wishes on your journey! 😊

@crucialtaunt5717 7 місяців тому

This one is in Mt Laguna. Is that an adequate location for you? I found it by googling Mt Laguna Tiny House Block.

@JuliePavlacka 7 місяців тому

Building a house on a foundation can get very expensive + you need building permits from the city versus a tiny house on wheels (THOW) you can build it however you'd like and then move it where it needs to go. I imagine in San Diego it would be difficult (or maybe impossible) to find land that is permitted/zoned for the use that you mentioned. For example - in Utah, we were unable to look at building a tiny home on a foundation/property because all new build construction had to be over a certain size (I think it was 1,500 sqft) they allowed AUDs on foundations as long as there was a "full size" house on the property first - THOWs were not allowed in most areas. Building a THOW the perfect option for us! There's definitely still a lot of red tape on where you can put them, but Tiny House Block has been a great place for us and it's absolutely beautiful up here.

We are probably going to switch to a flushing toilet, during the build we didn’t know if we were going to need to be off grid or hooked up to septic. We do have the water feed and can tie into the septic later if we decide to change it. :) but I also am not the biggest fan of our compost toilet. But it’s DIY and doesn’t waste water.

@knowledgeandmultiskilled 7 місяців тому

"$50,000 dollars, and 10 months to build" I guess if more time was dedicated to build a tiny house then perhaps the tiny home could be built faster than 10 months. Maybe it would be cheaper if the couple actually built their own home from scratch. I think buying materials, or asking, for help can create more expenditures.

@JuliePavlacka 7 місяців тому

Correct, we were both working full time jobs for this build and therefore only worked on it in the evenings and on weekends. We were also funding the project as we built (we didn't have a loan), so some big purchases had to wait and delayed the build process. Probably could have build it in 3 months if work and money were not a factor. We built the entire house ourselves, the only thing we contracted out was the electrical. And we didget NOAH certified, to ensure our tiny house was safe and build properly which added $2,500 to our build. Building it ourselves probably saved us around $40,000-$50,000 grand. Yes, we could have built it for cheaper if didn't splurge on soft-close cabinets or if we built the cabinets ourselves, but we didn't have the time (or the expertise) to do that. For all DIY tiny houses, there's going to be things that the builder gives up to stay on schedule, and things they splurge on to make it feel like home. I've seen DIY tinies that were $25K - but was it something I'd feel comfortable in every day - no, not at all. That's one of the reasons why DIY tiny houses are so cool - the builder gets to draw their own line of what they need/want to live comfortably.

@knowledgeandmultiskilled 7 місяців тому

@@JuliePavlacka If the electrical was not contracted out then that should have saved money. For sure there is learning curve to learn about electricity. Not being able to do something doesn't mean someone can't learn how to do it if willing, and realistically able to learn. Staying on schedule seems to be a concern, for you. I would think before someone builds a home then it would be planed out first. Because I think without making plans then this is where a builder can spend more time building. Giving something up could be optional to stay on schedule, but maybe not all builders would want to have to give something up. "we didn't have the time (or the expertise)" Expertise takes time to acquire, and time is something that many people would have to invest to try to become good at doing something such as building cabinets.

Love it but why in the hell put down astroturf? Perennial plants require almost no maintenance and can provide homes and food to other creatures. You could easily install micro clover if you're after no maintenance.

@_Red_Ryan_ 7 місяців тому

It’s not a long term parking place, we got the turf for a great deal. And we wanted our dog to have a place she could roll a round and do dog things without getting dirty. Also, we have a ton of gophers and moles up here that create holes everywhere so the turf helps keep those tripping hazards to a minimum. But I agree, the micro clover is a great alternative to real grass and is something we will do once we have a more long term space to park the tiny house. We also get snow and the turf is easy to shovel off so we still get some outdoor living/entertaining space.
