Depending on how taxes and my office space turns out in the next couple months, I may have nearly $5,000 saved for the house!
It’s about time that I start consider whether I am actually going to build it myself (no place to build or building experience, so potentially not..), in which case I may soon have enough to get the trailer and start on it, or if I’m going to continue to simply save and buy one/have one built for me.
So I spent a lot of time last night when I should have been sleeping looking over tiny houses. It’s been a few months since I did a search, and more and more options are becoming available.
I particularly liked this one, if I go for working off of another person’s design: http://padtinyhouses.com/books-plans/sweet-pea-tiny-house-plans/#!prettyPhoto
And for pre-built, I really like the Boulder, which is actually somewhat affordable, unlike a lot of the houses that are cropping up in searches lately. http://rockymountaintinyhouses.com/for-sale-the-boulder-27350/
I’m still trying to find one that’s a little bigger, more like 10′ by 24′, and if I have it built I will still likely design a lot of it myself. But more and more, I just want a tranquil little space of my own, and I’ve taken to looking at tiny house listings periodically to see if perhaps I can simply buy one outright sooner rather than later.
The road to home is long, but continues.
