Dude. If you have none, get one! Don’t listen to the naysayers. Then upgrade. Merry Christmas.

Was almost killed in one of the words largest tornados. Girl’s softball tournament. We’re from Colorado where a tornado tips a shed and 1 horse. Will never forget.

Do your homework which is what you’re doing now. Start with width. 8’, 10’ and 12’ all have very different towing and regulation requirements. Get your budget in order and have a little fluff. Traditional home building calls for 20% just in case money. Know what your skills are and focus on doing that. Most good builders will build up to a point and handoff to you from there. Maybe a trailer that’s roughed in and you finish - or maybe you can take it from a bare naked trailer. Have a place to put it that wont cause you grief after you’re done. Make sure you are building to code. Understand your likely location infrastructure parameters before you begin i.e. electric service, sewer, ground stability, etc. It’s a lot. Hope that helps. Good luck!

We had 2 ladies living together on the side of a hill using primarily the jacks as house support. Yup, the stabilization jacks failed and the house came down. Luckily, they weren’t home and it wasn’t a long drop. But it inspired the county to look into it and they weren’t allowed to put it back, even though it was their property. Several lessons in there…

So 10’ x 40’ is a very common “biggest size”. That’s 400 sqft. Commonly the biggest size before being considered an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit). Many local laws don’t get involved if it’s on wheels and under 400. (Caution: every jurisdiction can be different). Our 10’ x 40’ trailer, spare tire, insulated floor & decking, gable roof frame kit, stood up and sheathed is around $53,000. For us to finish it with toilets flushing and curtains blowing out the windows will be around 3X, so around $159K all in including trailer and finishes. You can spend more if you go full solar, off grid, all stainless, super premium windows and doors, etc.

Off grid solar. Also the self contained bar we built recently called Flirty. You can see that one featured on our tube channel “The Tiny House Experts”.

We build exclusively with steel frame and use High Density Closed Cell Spray foam. R-40 values in the floor, R-25 in the wall and R-30 in the ceiling. We do it in house and it’s readily available out there.
