WHY TINY HOME versus  SECOND SINGLE RESIDENCE HOME

​

Tiny home definition is a home with square footage is between 100 and 399 square feet. Why would someone choose to live in a small space? It turns out there are many merits to purchasing a tiny home as a second home. People may purchase for any number of reasons:

1. financial reasons specifically affordability;

2. simplification;

3. environmental concerns; and

4. increased leisure time.

 

1. Financial Reason

A tiny home provides an alternative for an affordable second home and the associated costs. Having a tiny home as a second residence is becoming popular because the average cost of a tiny home is much lower than that of an average traditional house. 

 

The cost of buying an average-sized house over 30 years can be much higher than you think. The initial cost of a $290,000 home includes the purchase price, of course, but also includes the interest, taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, and improvements. All of this can add up to a total cost of over a million dollars during the lifetime of your home.  This is the “true cost” of a home.

Research indicates tiny house market trends show cost between $40,000 and $156,000.  Additionally, depending on where you park your tiny home, you may need to pay for land or land rental and insurance, but in the long run, the savings on a tiny house is huge when compared to traditional home ownership.

 

2. Simplification

Having a tiny home as a second residence allows you to adopt a lifestyle that’s scaled down both physically and financially.  It is about finding a tiny home to fit your lifestyle and decluttering your obligations, your social life, and your stress.

 

3. Environmental Concerns

Having a tiny home as a second residence offers a path to a smaller environmental carbon footprint.

 

4. Increased Leisure Time

Having a tiny home as a second residence allows for you to have more time and freedom to enjoy the natural beauty, great outdoors recreational and leisure activities.
