House hunting was all about “location” but now size matters. New condos are seen as tiny, but what if I told you the the next thing is housing was Tumbleweed Tiny Houses? There are mini houses that range from 65 to 140 square feet in size even smaller than Tiny Texas house profiled on here on Trendhunter earlier this summer.
Why would anyone but Frodo from Lord of the Rings want to live in a mini house? Well there are benefits to residing in such a tiny space. The advantages to going “mini” include, mobility, they can usually be built in 2 to 3 months, tiny water and heatings costs and less strain on the environment. Best of all no house guests crashing on your couch.
