Last year I found out the wife and I had to move in with her mother. So, I spent a total 12k and built a 10×20 bungalow in her back yard. Took 3 months. One 25 amp inlet powers everything. Fridge, stove, water heater, incinerator toilet...best money and best work I've ever invested, as living in the in laws house would have been a nightmare.

@@wesscotchdog9078 Just kidding, @wesscotchdog. I know what it's called: it's called love.(🤫) It's what my family did for their elders. It's what you joyfully do for your children, and it feels like a priveledge because from the second that they're born, you love them overwhelmingly fiercely and protectively. We don't think twice about it, just do it, as your wife and you did. Wise to put your own space on their property. An incinerating toilet should replace every septic tank in the US. ( I'm a woman, not a Dude.)
It makes sense for everyone to have your own space. Obviously, your wife needs to be near her mother, but it doesn't mean it would work well to have no privacy for you or your MIL.

Great job Cash 😊 When I moved to Indianapolis 6 years ago I wasn't sure where I wanted to live. I bought a mobile home for 8K. 3 bedroom/1 bath and I fixed her up. I redid the kitchen and bathroom.

Your tiny home reminded me the ones used by the 2011 tsunami survivors, there were even small temporary villages of these tiny homes. Very few of them remained after the affected areas were rebuilt.
Yep, in the intro when Cash says he would explain why these homes were being built, I immediately assumed it was going to be for natural disaster survivors, just like the hundreds of tiny homes that were built after the tsunami.

In rural Japan you can buy old homes for less than 10,000 usd My friend did it it’s beautiful. There’s so many abandon homes in the countryside in Japan you can literally get a steel on a house, and a lot of them come fully furnished.

Miss Violet, superstar. Loved the tiny houses, great idea for short to medium term living especially if you are trying to save for a regular house. Thanks to Kanami for her translations and local knowledge. Can't wait for your next adventure Cash.
Hey, I'm Japanese and have been watching this channel for some months now (mainly the ones about how New York has declined), but had no idea Cash was married to a Japanese lady, and was already in Japan :)
After watching the NY videos, It is hard to adjust to this Japan video, but actually pretty funny. He just doesn't seem to fit in. Really surprised that he has a Japanese wife and kid, but also think that's awesome. I was just in Japan visiting my wife's family, and love it there.
the tiny home is practical but here in the US it’s met by resistance and regulations. government wants taxes and if the tiny home can’t be taxed then the tiny home is not permitted. i live in california and i believe there are only two official sites that are truly tiny home communities. one in San Diego up in the mountain area and one in northern california along the delta. i do love the tiny home concept because i’m a senior citizen and i don’t need a lot of space. still searching for something like what you’ve shown on your video. thanks !! show more please😊
Yes. I live in hurricane alley, so the building codes here are pretty strict. A tiny home without a foundation, as awesome of an idea that it is, wouldn’t be feasible in my neck of the woods, unfortunately.
I had just typed the same thing. The road to hell is paved with good intensions. Some places out east are now allowing people to build "tiny homes" in the backyard. Go figure. More $$ in revenue maybe?
@@staciwhite1256 I mean, earthquake prone Japan without a foundation is also quite questionable to me, but maybe there are other factors that make it feasible
Exactly. So yeah, it’s not new to the US and you can find a few in PA, New Mexico, TX, etc. but the government is all about making money for them, which means no saving money for us.
Maui victims really need these tiny house asap so they can put these tiny house on their land so they can get back on their feet, keep working and save enough money to rebuild their houses. This is probably the quickest way for temporary solution so they keep those disgusting investors from to grab the native’s land for dirt cheap! It’s just my thought.
There is a guy in TN that is building beautiful, AFFORDABLE tiny homes. The problem is that so many states have regulations around them as to where they can be located, it becomes a pain to maintain. The guy, Randy, used to build regular homes in Nashville. He has also built a place to put them that is affordable lot rents. You should hook up with him and visit his store.
Incredible Tiny Homes is the channel. Their least expensive is like 26k. But their most expensive is like 75-80k. Beautiful wood interiors. I always hate those tiny home sites that list 600 sq ft for 200k. Why?!
It’s breakfast time watching your video again. It’s so interesting to watch tiny houses in Japan. Please show more of these videos while you’re here. It’s so refreshing! ❤
Dude, I'm fairly new here, having only discovered your channel over the weekend. Been enjoying going back over your content and I have to say, I'm not just impressed by the quality of your videos, the editing and presentation etc, but also your work ethic; for the quality of what you're uploading and the speed of your uploads, you are really on the grind, man! A lot of UA-camrs could take some inspiration from you. Nice work, bud.
This is the second tiny space that is so much better than the garbage in NY. They come with a kitchen and bathroom. Other cities could learn a lot from Japan.
I had to like the video three times. Firstly because it takes place in Japan, once because you can't help but value properties even when you're on vacation, and once because your family supports you as a real estate agent.
A good solution for areas were a disaster happened and temporary housing is in need. For cramped cities the micro apartment movement might be a better solution. We had an investor building a bigger housing complex (360 units) with multiple micro apartments - 17, 20 or 23 square meter in size (comes with kitchenette, build in closet, bathroom, table, chairs, bed, seats) free community area, gym, shared work space and they were rented out in no time. A bit pricey but not as expensive as the usual apartments.
Two generations living in the same house can be very taxing because as we age people tend to get more bossy and controlling due to losing control over their lives when they start needing help. The loss of privacy is hard for everyone. One guy I worked with who is a carpenter modified his home so that his parents had a beautiful ground level apartment. It was gorgeous and each generation had their own space.
Those are pretty nice and I can see the potential uses for Japan. Since you build from the ground up, this could be used as a temp situation while your house is being built. And after, you can use it as guest qauters or as an inlaw suite. And in the US, you can use it as income generaters.
Hopefully, these homes will become popular here in the US, where housing costs are out of control. This could be instrumental in solving the housing crisis so many are facing. As a senior on a gixed income, I would definitely consider this affordable option.
You will own nothing and be happy. You’ll receive your universal basic income check to your cbdc account if you keep your social credit score high. By not criticizing the election, love abortions, and getting the 8th sterilization and myocarditis boostie. Extra esg points if you turn trans like bud light. Progressive af!
Or we could enforce price controls and regulate the hell out of greedy companies that are making a fortune on real estate. Both the property side and builder side.
@Jose_hernandez970 that would require the politicians to form a committee that will then spend the next 3 years and a million dollars having meetings to discuss the problem. Then, as usual, they will do nothing.
One of the common features I've always loved about Japanese bathrooms is how the toilet and bath are in separate rooms, so no stinking the room up when someone is relaxing in the bath. And the fact they kept that feature in one of these particularly tiny, tiny houses. Love it.
Yes, RainmakeR_Workshop, that just jakes sense. The British also traditionally separated bathing from excreting. A "bathroom" in Britain means a room with a bathtub, a "toilet" means a room with a toilet. The Japanese take it two steps further, by allowing one to wash outside the already filled tub, then soak that freshly washed body in clean hot water. Step two, the tubs are deep enough to soak, sitting upright, up to the shoulders at least. Some of the modern Japanese prefab "unit baths" do not have the sepatate drain for washing, and may also contain the toilet and bath in the same room, yuck. We can get Japanese style ofuro baths in the US, but here they are super expensive and require a lot of room.
@@Xubuntu47 I am British mate. And we do often have a separate second toilet. But having your one and only toilet in a separate room from the bath isn't common at all.
@@RainMakeR_Workshop I see, so they are only separate if you have an extra one. That's what we call a "half-bath", even though there is no bath. I was doing research on wet rooms-a bathroom where the whole room is waterproof, with a drain on the floor; basically the whole room is a shower. That's how a lot of Japanese bathrooms are set up. Makes it easier to wash, then soak. Also safer for the elderly or disabled because there's nothing to climb over to shower. Most of the hits were in the UK, almost nothing Stateside. I guess wet rooms are a thing there.
@@Xubuntu47 Well, I'm sure ones with a single toilet that is separate from the bath exist over here. They're just not common. And yeah, wet rooms are fairly popular here, as you said, especially with older people. But also disabled people too. Though some have them just for the convenience.
These are like shipping containers and should be easy to transport on cargo ships. Lahaina survivors need some of these tiny houses right now. Maybe some Japanese billionaires could donate some of these houses. Wouldn't that be lovely?
Could be an option at some point but this can't happen immediately ... EXTREMELY expensive to ship these to the Island and it will take many days/weeks. All my LOVE to my Ohana and the Aina 🤙🏽❣
@@sexiredjeep USAF C4 cargo airplanes could airlift these from an airport in Japan to Hickam AFB on Oahu in less than a day -- if the governments of Japan and the US wanted to do a humanitarian mission for the people on Maui. Ship transport from Oahu to Maui would take longer but could be speed up if the Hawaii government, Matson, etc. wanted to make it happen.
These are so versatile and cosy. A single person with a "simple life" in mind could thrive in a small home like this. Here in Sweden we are now allowed to build "Attefallshus" (Attefall House) with I THINK little or no planning but they are bound by 30 square meters in size. You can cram a lot into that! Many people build them in their backyard or side driveway and rent them out to people or run them as a AirBnB.
Cash- That was absolutely fantastic! Please thank your wife and adorable daughter and the builder. What a great vision of housing for single or small families in Japan and soon ( If we know you 😃) in the USA! I am encouraged by your never ending imagination. BYW- Violet is hilarious. She is brimming over with intelligence and personality. What great parents you both are. Keep going!☮️👏👏👏👏
Wonderful places. I grew up in a rather large house, additions made over the years by preceding generations of my family, and now that I'm in the no-longer-young category and have arthritis and some heart trouble that family house would be far too much for me. One of these Japanese tiny homes would be great for me. I think I and many others would be able to live alone for longer times and with less need for assistance. One change I would need is a bed that's at a "regular" Western height because of the difficulty gettting to a standing position from at or near floor level. I'm going to be looking at my studio apartment in a different way.
I think people are slowly learning that massive square footage is unnecessary. This kind of place is useful for house challenged folks, and for minimalists, it also helps a body spend more time outside. 😁
Japan is all about efficiency and great use of space. When I went to Tokyo, I even saw a homeless man who created a well designed hut from plywood. It was organized, clean, and even had a small shoe rack area outside his front entrance!
So you always pop up on my suggested videos and I watch from time to time, but this video, with your wife and daughter, made me hit the sub button. I dig your content.. but this international/tiny home video is perfect! I hope your wife knows how amazing she comes across in your video! Sending lots of love from my family to yours from New Jersey!
Every bit of space is utilized in these small houses. And, unlike NYC apts. when you open the appliance doors, they don't bang into something on the opposite side of the room...lol. Nice looking out into nature instead of a building airshaft. Cash, your videos are the greatest !! And, of course Violet looks as adorable as always, she is growing up to be quite the little lady, so sweet.
Cash, i'm loving the turn your channel is taking...i dig the apartment tours but nice to see you stretch your legs, involve the family and check out different housing styles. thanks
I'm really enjoying seeing the Japanese houses in your videos! They're so refreshing... It shows that you don't really need much to be able to live comfortably in a space.
@@WANDERER0070 yes, but I was not speaking about the specific house shown I was making a consideration on Jordan's opinion. This kind of building will not solve the issue of housing pricing. Then, yes, you are probably right: that land probably is not expensive
@@mschief-central4940 yeah, I lived there. But still the issues they have for unaffordable houses (and they have) is due to land value and not housing. But anyway Jordan was speaking about having these houses as a solution for the issue in the USA and also there the issue is the land value
In a tiny space it's necessary to have adequate storage for clothes. These places have a good amount for a single person. Bins could go on the shelves for a dresser. It's better than being homeless.
I'm really enjoying your videos, Cash! My mother was Japanese, and my dad was a Scots-Irish American. The external curtain rod is for drying clothes I think.
My son lives in Japan and has married a beautiful and smart Japanese young woman. At some point, in 20 years, I am selling everything and moving there to be with my not-yet born grandchildren. This tiny home would be perfect for me! Btw, I love Kyoto. It's suburbs are rural but super nice and quiet. Perfect for me as well.
Cash Jordan, I love your family! Those children are beautiful. Great Dad and mom. Very interesting life. Always love your content! Thanks for taking me along!😊
The house is small but it’s bigger than 48 square foot. Looks about 120 square foot. Still small. My wife and I recently sold our Florida home (2500 sqft) and turned a 450 square foot detached garage into a 1 bedroom apt on our daughters property (approximately 2acres). The conversion cost about 30k but now we are debt free and rent free and live about 75 ft away from our grandkids. Sold all of our accumulated junk and paid off everything. Life is perfect.
@@loisaustin6200 Thank you. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people who say the same thing and are envious of new living situation. Parting with your life time of accumulated junk is much more difficult than people want to admit. We had separation anxiety of getting rid of stuff that had been in the attic for 15 years. Unused, unloved, and unwanted but still didn’t want to throw away🙄
I agree the square foot math must have been converted incorrectly from meters or something. Congratulations on your wonderful, cost saving living arrangement!!
I'd get claustrophobia living in that tiny space. It would be okay for a holiday or short stay but I don't think I'd want to live there long term. It's a great option for elderly people and housing for the unhoused but I think most people would want to live in a bigger place.
Interesting to see the tiny houses in Japan. Cash, the tiny house movement has already been going in the US for some years now. Just do a search on YT and you'll see. But it's always interesting to see how other countries deal with building them. 👍😊
Thier supposed to. They've been issued before. And honestly...I thought the Model in the US was better. BUt if there sitting brand new in a field deteriorating...waiting for years for some reason to be issued... there useless to American citizens.
I would live here over ANY tiny Apartment in NYC 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🔥❤️ Everything is better when you leave NYC 😂…….$31,000 is a AMAZING price for Peace and Quietness!!! I love everything about this…
I'm not a "tiny house" fan since I'm a bigger guy....but stuff like this could change my mind. For now, I'll stick with my current place. Cool video Cash!
i’ve always wanted to visit Japan. i love the culture. my cousin is half Japanese and i use to always love going over his place and talking with his mom. working at A Bathing Ape back in 2006 was epic as well, working for the Japanese was amazing. they’re wholesome people. definitely wouldn’t mind living there. i am thankful that you go almost every year and i’m able to watch. makes me feel as if i’m there. definitely need to visit.
This is an incredible video and amazing individuals who are trying to make a difference in providing housing for people. Thank you to all who made this video possible! 🙏🏼🥰
As a semi nomad person I sometimes dream of having my house built in a 40ft container that can be shipped wherever I move without starting each time from scratch when I change country
Check out the 8'x40' container home on wheels that Incredible Tiny Homes builds. They are gorgeous, and you can rent a big truck to tow them, as they are DOT approved for road travel, or ship them.
Not even close, this dude didn't know that this was on the U.S. already... 🤣 Also buying houses in Japan sucks a lot... The taxes in Japan are worse than in the U.S. so you now know. Soy Latino no estadounidense por si las dudas.
I liked the small house. It would work well for one occupant. And being away from the city is ideal for me. These are well thought out, and affordable. Amazing! Your family is wonderful, Cash. Loved the video, thank you. 😊
in america you have to own land to put up one of these tiny homes with water and electrical hookups so these are no good in america, the same goes for trailer homes, best to buy land and buy a motor homes so you can drive it off your land for a short period so city cant hassel you..
Great video! Very enlightening and well done. A lot of information in a short amount of time. I appreciate that so thank you! My wife and I have considered all sorts of tiny house options as we are soon to be empty nesters. I really like the 2 story option. The 2 gentlemen were so friendly. It only seems that friendliness is not seen too much around my location here in the States. Again, great video!

@@staciwhite1256 I mean, earthquake prone Japan without a foundation is also quite questionable to me, but maybe there are other factors that make it feasible
Exactly. So yeah, it’s not new to the US and you can find a few in PA, New Mexico, TX, etc. but the government is all about making money for them, which means no saving money for us.
Maui victims really need these tiny house asap so they can put these tiny house on their land so they can get back on their feet, keep working and save enough money to rebuild their houses. This is probably the quickest way for temporary solution so they keep those disgusting investors from to grab the native’s land for dirt cheap! It’s just my thought.
Excellent idea 💡
There is a guy in TN that is building beautiful, AFFORDABLE tiny homes. The problem is that so many states have regulations around them as to where they can be located, it becomes a pain to maintain. The guy, Randy, used to build regular homes in Nashville. He has also built a place to put them that is affordable lot rents. You should hook up with him and visit his store.
Incredible Tiny Homes is the channel. Their least expensive is like 26k. But their most expensive is like 75-80k. Beautiful wood interiors. I always hate those tiny home sites that list 600 sq ft for 200k. Why?!
Enjoy watching. Great ideas from his site and his.
North Carolina has almost no restrictions for tiny homes. Yayyyyy me, because I hope to build one on my property and rent it.
@@corablue5569Can't do that here in SC, at least in my county 😕
It’s breakfast time watching your video again. It’s so interesting to watch tiny houses in Japan. Please show more of these videos while you’re here. It’s so refreshing! ❤
Although I love seeing Cash on a daily basis, it is really neat to see the Mrs. and little one. Violet is a camera ham!
Great tiny homes!! Excellent prices too!!
Love your family. Your daughter is beautiful and very sweet.
Hi diane where are you from?
Dude, I'm fairly new here, having only discovered your channel over the weekend. Been enjoying going back over your content and I have to say, I'm not just impressed by the quality of your videos, the editing and presentation etc, but also your work ethic; for the quality of what you're uploading and the speed of your uploads, you are really on the grind, man! A lot of UA-camrs could take some inspiration from you.
Nice work, bud.
Awesome, thank you!
These tiny homes are really awesome for one person or a couple. In addition, I love the chair that converts to a bed. The price is also reasonable.
This is the second tiny space that is so much better than the garbage in NY. They come with a kitchen and bathroom. Other cities could learn a lot from Japan.
For sure
Facts
Definitely ❤️
But remember in the US. these would be a nightmare, unsanitary, and rents would still be $3000.00/mo
@@roscoemuttley 😂
I had to like the video three times. Firstly because it takes place in Japan, once because you can't help but value properties even when you're on vacation, and once because your family supports you as a real estate agent.
Love seeing how other countries live and navigate housing. Thank you!
3:04 kid is soo adorable.I was so invested in her throughout the video.
A good solution for areas were a disaster happened and temporary housing is in need. For cramped cities the micro apartment movement might be a better solution. We had an investor building a bigger housing complex (360 units) with multiple micro apartments - 17, 20 or 23 square meter in size (comes with kitchenette, build in closet, bathroom, table, chairs, bed, seats) free community area, gym, shared work space and they were rented out in no time. A bit pricey but not as expensive as the usual apartments.
Soooooo love this video lovely to see your family and such a cute little girl so sweet God bless
I picture this is what Green & co has in mind for the displaced Lahaina residents. Rex 85 ….
Two generations living in the same house can be very taxing because as we age people tend to get more bossy and controlling due to losing control over their lives when they start needing help. The loss of privacy is hard for everyone.
One guy I worked with who is a carpenter modified his home so that his parents had a beautiful ground level apartment. It was gorgeous and each generation had their own space.
"48 SQUARE FEEEEET!" Violet is just the cutest kid man.
Those are pretty nice and I can see the potential uses for Japan. Since you build from the ground up, this could be used as a temp situation while your house is being built. And after, you can use it as guest qauters or as an inlaw suite. And in the US, you can use it as income generaters.
Hopefully, these homes will become popular here in the US, where housing costs are out of control. This could be instrumental in solving the housing crisis so many are facing. As a senior on a gixed income, I would definitely consider this affordable option.
You will own nothing and be happy. You’ll receive your universal basic income check to your cbdc account if you keep your social credit score high. By not criticizing the election, love abortions, and getting the 8th sterilization and myocarditis boostie. Extra esg points if you turn trans like bud light. Progressive af!
Or we could enforce price controls and regulate the hell out of greedy companies that are making a fortune on real estate. Both the property side and builder side.
@Jose_hernandez970 that would require the politicians to form a committee that will then spend the next 3 years and a million dollars having meetings to discuss the problem. Then, as usual, they will do nothing.
love is so beautiful that house is a doll house for Violet
I always dig your Japan content. Keep up the great work, Cash!
One of the common features I've always loved about Japanese bathrooms is how the toilet and bath are in separate rooms, so no stinking the room up when someone is relaxing in the bath. And the fact they kept that feature in one of these particularly tiny, tiny houses. Love it.
Yes, RainmakeR_Workshop, that just jakes sense. The British also traditionally separated bathing from excreting. A "bathroom" in Britain means a room with a bathtub, a "toilet" means a room with a toilet. The Japanese take it two steps further, by allowing one to wash outside the already filled tub, then soak that freshly washed body in clean hot water. Step two, the tubs are deep enough to soak, sitting upright, up to the shoulders at least. Some of the modern Japanese prefab "unit baths" do not have the sepatate drain for washing, and may also contain the toilet and bath in the same room, yuck. We can get Japanese style ofuro baths in the US, but here they are super expensive and require a lot of room.
@@Xubuntu47 I am British mate. And we do often have a separate second toilet. But having your one and only toilet in a separate room from the bath isn't common at all.
@@RainMakeR_Workshop I see, so they are only separate if you have an extra one. That's what we call a "half-bath", even though there is no bath. I was doing research on wet rooms-a bathroom where the whole room is waterproof, with a drain on the floor; basically the whole room is a shower. That's how a lot of Japanese bathrooms are set up. Makes it easier to wash, then soak. Also safer for the elderly or disabled because there's nothing to climb over to shower. Most of the hits were in the UK, almost nothing Stateside. I guess wet rooms are a thing there.
@@Xubuntu47 Well, I'm sure ones with a single toilet that is separate from the bath exist over here. They're just not common. And yeah, wet rooms are fairly popular here, as you said, especially with older people. But also disabled people too. Though some have them just for the convenience.
These are like shipping containers and should be easy to transport on cargo ships. Lahaina survivors need some of these tiny houses right now. Maybe some Japanese billionaires could donate some of these houses. Wouldn't that be lovely?
Great idea! Hope it happens.
Could be an option at some point but this can't happen immediately ... EXTREMELY expensive to ship these to the Island and it will take many days/weeks. All my LOVE to my Ohana and the Aina 🤙🏽❣
@@sexiredjeep USAF C4 cargo airplanes could airlift these from an airport in Japan to Hickam AFB on Oahu in less than a day -- if the governments of Japan and the US wanted to do a humanitarian mission for the people on Maui. Ship transport from Oahu to Maui would take longer but could be speed up if the Hawaii government, Matson, etc. wanted to make it happen.
Why should Japanese millionaires do that? Wouldn’t US millionaires be the more logical solution?
maybe because so many are Japanese Americans?@@claudiakarl2702
These are so versatile and cosy. A single person with a "simple life" in mind could thrive in a small home like this. Here in Sweden we are now allowed to build "Attefallshus" (Attefall House) with I THINK little or no planning but they are bound by 30 square meters in size. You can cram a lot into that! Many people build them in their backyard or side driveway and rent them out to people or run them as a AirBnB.
Love this video !😍 I always look forward to your Japanese adventures . I hope to see many more fascinating views of Japan and Japanese culture.🇯🇵
Tiny homes would be nice for places where it's impossible to buy a house nowadays. High demand.
Cash- That was absolutely fantastic! Please thank your wife and adorable daughter and the builder. What a great vision of housing for single or small families in Japan and soon ( If we know you 😃) in the USA!
I am encouraged by your never ending imagination. BYW- Violet is hilarious. She is brimming over with intelligence and personality. What great parents you both are.
Keep going!☮️👏👏👏👏
Aww, your little girl is so cute! So nice to see your family on the hunt with you. Maybe little miss will make her own tiny space some day.
Wonderful places. I grew up in a rather large house, additions made over the years by preceding generations of my family, and now that I'm in the no-longer-young category and have arthritis and some heart trouble that family house would be far too much for me. One of these Japanese tiny homes would be great for me. I think I and many others would be able to live alone for longer times and with less need for assistance. One change I would need is a bed that's at a "regular" Western height because of the difficulty gettting to a standing position from at or near floor level. I'm going to be looking at my studio apartment in a different way.
Hi. I have just found this video by chance. This is FABULOUS. THANK YOU to all involved. The future must surely be about small, moveable homes .
I think people are slowly learning that massive square footage is unnecessary. This kind of place is useful for house challenged folks, and for minimalists, it also helps a body spend more time outside. 😁
Such clever people. I love them! And they have many skilled craftsmen. They are kind and excel in everything they do ❤
Japan is all about efficiency and great use of space. When I went to Tokyo, I even saw a homeless man who created a well designed hut from plywood. It was organized, clean, and even had a small shoe rack area outside his front entrance!
Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but I couldn't find any homeless when I visited Japan!
So you always pop up on my suggested videos and I watch from time to time, but this video, with your wife and daughter, made me hit the sub button. I dig your content.. but this international/tiny home video is perfect! I hope your wife knows how amazing she comes across in your video! Sending lots of love from my family to yours from New Jersey!
Every bit of space is utilized in these small houses. And, unlike NYC apts. when you open the appliance doors, they don't bang into something on the opposite side of the room...lol. Nice looking out into nature instead of a building airshaft. Cash, your videos are the greatest !! And, of course Violet looks as adorable as always, she is growing up to be quite the little lady, so sweet.
This is one of my favorite video from you!!! I love seeing your family❤❤
It's much better than any NY tiny apartment. You don't have to share bathrooms, I love it. I could definitely live there.
Cash, i'm loving the turn your channel is taking...i dig the apartment tours but nice to see you stretch your legs, involve the family and check out different housing styles. thanks
This was really interesting! Kinda bare bones compared to the tiny homes we have over here in the US tho. Made me think of shipping containers.
It was great following you as you wandered aimlessly through the rental market in NYC seasoned with your snide remarks . Good luck in Japan.
I'm really enjoying seeing the Japanese houses in your videos! They're so refreshing... It shows that you don't really need much to be able to live comfortably in a space.
Loved the video and seeing your family. Your little daughter is adorable! ❤
The usual issue for housing is not the construction costs but the land value that unfortunately these houses don't solve
I think In country side land is cheap
@@WANDERER0070 yes, but I was not speaking about the specific house shown I was making a consideration on Jordan's opinion. This kind of building will not solve the issue of housing pricing. Then, yes, you are probably right: that land probably is not expensive
So. You have figured out the BILLIONAIRE SPECIES that OWN EVERYTHING don't like people of color, ANY COLOR, on their land?
@@00000a0009Japan doesn’t look at homes as investments the way the U.s does
@@mschief-central4940 yeah, I lived there. But still the issues they have for unaffordable houses (and they have) is due to land value and not housing. But anyway Jordan was speaking about having these houses as a solution for the issue in the USA and also there the issue is the land value
I love when you take us on family vacation!!! Thank you.
In a tiny space it's necessary to have adequate storage for clothes. These places have a good amount for a single person. Bins could go on the shelves for a dresser. It's better than being homeless.
I'm really enjoying your videos, Cash! My mother was Japanese, and my dad was a Scots-Irish American. The external curtain rod is for drying clothes I think.
My son lives in Japan and has married a beautiful and smart Japanese young woman. At some point, in 20 years, I am selling everything and moving there to be with my not-yet born grandchildren. This tiny home would be perfect for me! Btw, I love Kyoto. It's suburbs are rural but super nice and quiet. Perfect for me as well.
Don't wait too long Safe travels
Try it out first maybe u would like the country
His Japanese wife is not even pretty. lol
もしかして、日本語が喋れますか？
May I suggest you start learning Japanese so you can fit in faster?
Cash Jordan, I love your family! Those children are beautiful. Great Dad and mom. Very interesting life. Always love your content! Thanks for taking me along!😊
The house is small but it’s bigger than 48 square foot. Looks about 120 square foot. Still small. My wife and I recently sold our Florida home (2500 sqft) and turned a 450 square foot detached garage into a 1 bedroom apt on our daughters property (approximately 2acres). The conversion cost about 30k but now we are debt free and rent free and live about 75 ft away from our grandkids. Sold all of our accumulated junk and paid off everything. Life is perfect.
Very smart move.
@@loisaustin6200 Thank you. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people who say the same thing and are envious of new living situation. Parting with your life time of accumulated junk is much more difficult than people want to admit. We had separation anxiety of getting rid of stuff that had been in the attic for 15 years. Unused, unloved, and unwanted but still didn’t want to throw away🙄
Wow. So lucky.
I agree the square foot math must have been converted incorrectly from meters or something. Congratulations on your wonderful, cost saving living arrangement!!
Ahh loved seeing the family again- great video Cash!
Yo lets go. Good way to start off the morning
So sweet. Your daughter is definitely going to follow in her dad's foot steps. Awesome sauce!
They are just like a container house.
Cash you was really listening to the phone conversation like you knew what they were saying🤣🤣 I love when you post these family moments 👍🏽👍🏽
I'd get claustrophobia living in that tiny space. It would be okay for a holiday or short stay but I don't think I'd want to live there long term. It's a great option for elderly people and housing for the unhoused but I think most people would want to live in a bigger place.
Thank you for this video. I think it's important and it's very interesting. They're surprisingly roomy and look well made. 💗
Hi Suzanne where are you from?
Interesting to see the tiny houses in Japan. Cash, the tiny house movement has already been going in the US for some years now. Just do a search on YT and you'll see. But it's always interesting to see how other countries deal with building them. 👍😊
Mr. Yamazoe is doing a good work! Very practical.
The American government should have about 100,000 of these mothballed just for disaster relief
FEMA had trailers available for people after hurricane Katrina, as I recall. I wonder what happened to all of these?
Thier supposed to. They've been issued before. And honestly...I thought the Model in the US was better. BUt if there sitting brand new in a field deteriorating...waiting for years for some reason to be issued... there useless to American citizens.
@@suzannemarienau2760 they’re wood framing contained formaldehyde most of them had to be demolished
I've watch hundreds of your videos but this one is my favorite I love your daughter and wife❤❤❤❤
I would live here over ANY tiny Apartment in NYC 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🔥❤️
Everything is better when you leave NYC 😂…….$31,000 is a AMAZING price for Peace and Quietness!!!
I love everything about this…
I'm not a "tiny house" fan since I'm a bigger guy....but stuff like this could change my mind. For now, I'll stick with my current place. Cool video Cash!
i’ve always wanted to visit Japan. i love the culture. my cousin is half Japanese and i use to always love going over his place and talking with his mom. working at A Bathing Ape back in 2006 was epic as well, working for the Japanese was amazing. they’re wholesome people. definitely wouldn’t mind living there. i am thankful that you go almost every year and i’m able to watch. makes me feel as if i’m there. definitely need to visit.
I absolutely LOVE the bathrooms in these tiny houses! Bathtubs are great!
These could be accessory dwelling units in the US for in-fill housing.
ITH sells 8x16 for $15,000.00 US Dollars. They are factory built homes.
Such a sweet and beautiful little girl.
Surprised that you have not looked into the abandoned homes in Japan that they are almost giving away
Those need lots of reno
@@WANDERER0070 Yeah but for content sake it mine make a good video
Hey, Cash. We missed your vlogs, showing your daily routine etc. Good work. Your second daughter is more like you. Violet seems so grown up.
This is an incredible video and amazing individuals who are trying to make a difference in providing housing for people. Thank you to all who made this video possible! 🙏🏼🥰
Hi Karin how are you doing today ❤
Thanks for the solid content.
We have tiny homes, like this, in the US.
@Cash-Jordan__. Hmmm... I have the sneaky suspicion that this comment was not from the real Cash Jordan 😂
I really liked this video! To me it’s your best one since I’ve been watching your channel! Well done!
As a semi nomad person I sometimes dream of having my house built in a 40ft container that can be shipped wherever I move without starting each time from scratch when I change country
Check out the 8'x40' container home on wheels that Incredible Tiny Homes builds. They are gorgeous, and you can rent a big truck to tow them, as they are DOT approved for road travel, or ship them.
I've always loved tiny houses and really enjoyed this video. ❤
Not even close, this dude didn't know that this was on the U.S. already... 🤣 Also buying houses in Japan sucks a lot... The taxes in Japan are worse than in the U.S. so you now know. Soy Latino no estadounidense por si las dudas.
I liked the small house. It would work well for one occupant. And being away from the city is ideal for me. These are well thought out, and affordable. Amazing!
Your family is wonderful, Cash. Loved the video, thank you. 😊

@@suzannemarienau2760 That’s nice.. Yes I am in Syria… Can we talk somewhere else if you don’t mind ?
in america you have to own land to put up one of these tiny homes with water and electrical hookups so these are no good in america, the same goes for trailer homes, best to buy land and buy a motor homes so you can drive it off your land for a short period so city cant hassel you..
Great video! Very enlightening and well done. A lot of information in a short amount of time. I appreciate that so thank you! My wife and I have considered all sorts of tiny house options as we are soon to be empty nesters. I really like the 2 story option. The 2 gentlemen were so friendly. It only seems that friendliness is not seen too much around my location here in the States. Again, great video!
You will live in pods, you will eat bugs, and you will be happy... 🙁
Awwe your family is so cutee!
The Tiny Home concept is definitely not new in America
Not new, just rare, as the US government is kind of against this. This is much more common in New Zealand, Australia, etc.
Lennar is building tiny homes in Texas. Best part is, you own the land.
No sink sprayer! 😂
😂😂😄😄😄
these are great little homes! and a damn fine video mr.jordan . i am really enjoying this out of america experience/ thank you
Good morning!
