Have questions about your new tiny home?
Here are the answers to the most common questions we get.

An ADU (Additional Dwelling Unit) is a permanent structure (typically bigger than 400 sq.ft) that is in addition to a current residence. The ADU must follow LOCAL building rules and regulations and is permanently attached to a foundation. Permits must be submitted to, and it must be inspected by, local government agencies. It is typically designed by an Architect, engineered by a structural engineer and built by a general contractor. This process takes on average 1 1/2 to 2 years with little guarantee that costs will remain on budget or that the contractor will deliver as promised. A Tiny Home On Wheels is a detached, self-contained unit, built on a trailer, that can be towed by a vehicle. It must be certified to the ANSI A119.5 standards. It is built to look like a house and includes basic functional areas that support normal daily routines such as cooking, sleeping, and toiletry, measures between 100 and 400 square feet, and is designed to provide comfortable living spaces with minimal environmental impact. Our Tiny Homes On Wheels undergo strict quality controls in an efficient factory environment. This allows us to guarantee that you are getting the highest quality craftmanship while also receiving your home in a fraction of the time it would take to build an ADU.
