Solo Woman Designed Her Dream Tiny House & got Land BUT had to Pivot
Meet Shelly, who lives in a beautiful tiny house with her dog, Miley. It's 10-ft wide by 28-ft long. She designed it herself around her needs, and Korallus Tiny Homes brought it to life.
Her journey was full of ups & downs, like buying land only for the local land use laws to change unexpectedly, forcing her to switch gears. She ended up moving into the LuxTiny tiny home community and is so happy she did!

Couple Built $25k Tiny House then Nomadic for Yrs - now Homesteading!
Meet Alexis & Christian (Tiny House Expedition creators), a couple who lived in their DIY tiny house for 6.5 years. 🛠️ They built their 130 sqft home with the help of friends & family, using about 80% reclaimed wood & recycled materials.

He downsized into a Tiny House & has more free time than ever before!
Meet Don, who's living his best single life in his 3 m / 10-ft wide tiny house. He downsized from a large home after getting divorced & becoming an empty nester. 
His beautifully designed tiny house is full of creature comforts, lots of natural light, and a standing-height bedroom loft. It's been a liberating change of pace for him. 
Don loves how much more free time he has and how much money he's able to save for retirement.

Retired Woman helps to build her own Affordable Tiny House - so cute!
Meet Cheryl, a joyful retiree who's been living in her cute tiny house for 7 years in 2 tiny home communities. While only 13 sqm / 140 sqft, she adores living in her tiny home with a downstairs bed--fully maximized with clever storage solutions. 
The only way she could afford it was to do a DIY build, but that came with steep challenges. Fortunately, Incredible Tiny Homes had an amazing workshop offer. They would build an affordable tiny house shell, and then they'd provide mentoring for you & friends to come finish as much as possible in a week. Now, Cheryl is living her best retirement life with friends at The Bird's Nest Tiny Home & RV Community.
