SMART! He converted his backyard into a hotel (makes $6k/mo)
Переглядів 584,801
День томуAnsel has turned his backyard into a thriving business! How? He parked two Tiny Homes on his property, converted his garage into a luxury modern studio, and listed all three gorgeous spaces as short-term rentals. The business generates about $6k a month, which covers his mortgage, living expenses, and then some!

Once he gets some extra funds, he should have someone come out and design a landscaping plan for his property. It would seriously make this into a paradise

I really love the intentional vibes he created for each space!! I was hysterical when he was showing off the record player/cassette tape/CD player... the 1900s!!! 😂😂 I was saying that these newer generations will never know the struggle of the pencil or pen in the holes to wind up the tape of it came out... so many things from our generation...VHS tapes, too!! He did an amazing job with his tiny airbnb's!! I love almost the live plants as well, bringing the outdoors in, and it gives that cozy home vibe!!

@triciac.3792 4 місяці тому
Omg, I remember him! I live in the Bay Area, and if I remember correctly, I saw him on the news. He was talking about his tiny home, how he AirBnb’s it out and how this was his main income now. I’ve loved tiny homes for a while, and I remember telling my husband about “the guy on the news who AirBnB’s a tiny home out of his backyard, and pays his mortgage with the money he makes.” (That’s pretty freaking impressive, because we live in a very expensive area) l. I didn’t realize he has 2 tiny homes, and a converted garage! SO cool, and smart. Also, each one was so unique, and different. Awesome video!

@nebraskabugeaterfkadragonw7825 3 місяці тому
What we listened to in the 1900s--makes us sound so old, but made me laugh. I love how he decked out his tiny homes with intention & purpose--I'd say he's an artist.
@DawnOldham 4 місяці тому
You are such a hard worker with such a vision and so much initiative! I love the look of what you've done inside each space. My first thought is that I'd call you an entrepreneur who has interior design skills! You're very artistic within your homes! Since you mentioned that you loved the tiny home on wheels and could live in it, I wondered if you could maximize your profit by living in that tiny house. You could jazz up your 800+ square ft home, as you have the others, and then rent it out for an even higher price. Last, I agree that some landscaping would finish the aesthetic, when/if you have the extra cash flow. Great video! Awesome man with an awesome laugh!

The only concern I ever have is the lack of ventilation for cooking. You’re never pumping the oils, the grease, the food smells out of the house. And without a throat cleaning on even a weekly or monthly basis, the buildup gets so sticky. It’s extremely hard to remove.
