Description

In this episode of Real Estate with Soul, we’re setting the record straight on the so-called “Tesla Tiny Home.” That doesn’t mean your tiny home dreams have to stay rumors. We’ll walk through the real options available in 2025, from park model RV-certified homes like the Escape Traveler or Tumbleweed, to modular builds like the Boxable Casita, to site-built homes designed with Appendix Q in mind. Along the way, we’ll break down costs, zoning rules, permitting challenges, land considerations, and the all-important difference between homes on foundations versus homes on wheels. Plus, we’ll cover how to avoid scams and do your due diligence before handing over your hard-earned money. Whether you’re curious about a backyard ADU, dreaming of downsizing, or considering a tiny home as an investment, this episode gives you the roadmap to explore real, legal, and lasting tiny home options.
