    With Ryan's ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE plan, I was like one taken by the hand and led step by step from start to finish. Thank you very much Ryan!

    The problem with tiny houses are that the more popular they get, the more expensive they get and more restrictive laws are passed by states, cities, counties in order to even have them.

    • @AndreAngelantoni
      @AndreAngelantoni 5 років тому +11

      They are definitely getting more expensive but no one forces a person to spend more money.
      Also, these tiny houses are generally outlawed everywhere and restrictions appear to be being lifted.

      Plus I need a yard for my dogs to be able to go out and play safely. But that would mean living all alone out in the middle of nowhere. No, thanks. I wish they had communities, like little neighborhoods with tiny homes already on lots.

    This is one of the best "helpful hints" tiny house videos I've ever seen! Understanding where to start is the hardest part. For newbies to the movement this is the perfect "spark" of information to get them excited, focused and better mentally organized. You would all make great tiny house teachers! Thank you so much and as my grand-baby says, " Go! Go! Go! "

    I genuinely NEVER comment on any videos, but I’ve been sucked into the tiny house videos big time. I’ve been contemplating the move toward it for the last few months and this is by far one of the best videos. I love the tours, don’t get me wrong, but tips and tricks, or practicality, is a win for me! Thanks so much for sharing!!

    What a great collection of tiny houses! I was aware of this place, but hadn't seen any details on the individual tiny houses, so it was great to see them up close and the insides. I love that they have so much interesting diversity in the designs/styles. My favorite is a toss up between the white victorian tiny house and the beachy shingle sided tiny house. They look so inviting and comfortable.

    I absolutely love your videos and have been binge watching them all! My daughter and I are so fascinated by Tiny Houses and are living this through you. 😊 Only thing I would love to suggest, if you dont mind...please bring back your original intro...the song playing showing the amazing people by all their unique houses really sets the tone and shows just how personal this lifestyle choice is. This is their LIVES, and we are being welcomed into their worlds and that song is just breathtaking.
    Anyways thanks for all you do and please keep making new videos!!

    Man. I absolutely love every one of their homes. How fun that they were able to do themed homes. Much more fun then when designing just one home and can’t decide which style u wanna go with. Lol. I love the Victorian one the best. Then I see the modern and think, oh! That’s cute too. All of them are magnificent.

  • @adamolesiak6528
    @adamolesiak6528 6 років тому +1

    The Victorian house is so beautiful. Also I think it's good to try to get a low trailor or to try to cover up the gap between the trailor and the floor with some wooden walls extension. Makes it look more sturdy

    Wow, It seems so very long ago when I 1st discovered this video with these great people that have proved to be such a great family team & so very kind to do this for us! I had been preparing to build one for some time when I found them however I had watched many videos and bought many books but still hadn't come to find my perfect style .. that is until meeting these great people via this video and just from what I was able to see and with my laptop and I-phone I'd pause & take a pic over and 0ver again till I had every view of the white house! I can't thank you enough for all the info. and all the great work in building all these different types.
    Today it is almost complete and I can't wait to move in it, I would have loved to have seen the whole house inside and wonder how different or similar they look. I did not have it built with a trailer though because I so wanted to have it on some family lake land not only for the location but due to me being a landscape designer, & my love of lush flowers, flowering shrubs, flowering vine climbers, and beautiful flowering trees as well as other trees and greenery. Also, I had a 10ft.by 10 ft. porch with dentil molding around the roof and beautiful millwork every place I could possibly add it!
    Now though I must say I do regret not having it on wheels as now I just became a grandmother to the most precious baby girl and she lives in Naples, Fl. and I'm not sure what to do as now I'd love to winter in Naples and summer here in Nc.! I don't know if one can even be added or not, But we shall see & either way I just love it and can't wait as I stated earlier to actually move in. Again I say thank you to this beautiful couple for all their great advice and works of art,, as they were truly a Godsend to me & I'm sure many of you!!!!
