Jen downsized into a Tiny House after her "American Dream life" did not work out. She got a divorce, sold her large home, and was able to have a really nice Tiny Home designed and built to perfectly fit her taste and needs as a single mom.
In this video Jen takes us on a tour on her house, which she shares with her daughter. She talks about how she is redefining the concept of the American Dream. Even on a single income, she can afford to have a nice house, awhile feeling financially secure. And since it's on wheels, she can move wherever she'd like - even close to her kids when they move.

Hi dear. My mother can't work now because she had uterine cancer surgery 5 months ago. My father and mother are divorced and my father does not pay alimony us.I used to work but unfortunately I was bullied and fired. Thats why, I have to take care of my mother and sister .You may think I'm a bot, but I'm not a bot, you can believe it. I try to get my voice heard to people through comments. Can you help me as my follower on here ? I am grateful to you..

The tiny house is extremely beautiful and well done. But forget that for a second. The last few things she says in the video really speaks volumes. Her spirit, warmth, or whatever you want to call it, just know that SHE’S EXTREMELY HAPPY BECAUSE SHE’S AT PEACE! I found myself smiling throughout the whole video. A lot of us are searching for that peace and happiness and i hope we all can achieve both. 😊

This lovely woman's message really resonated and validated my vision. So many parallels even to the house design. These stories are so great in the way they highlight different people's journeys and how tiny living fits in.

Savings and a job. I miss him, we were together 37 years, but I thank god everyday that we had made that move. My apartment is beautifully decorated,spacious enough plus some, I can see and smell the sea. I have great outdoor space and the beach at the bottom of the road. I am content.

To be fair, you can get financing on a tiny house. They essentially purchased a new construction home that, in most major markets, would actually cost them $1 million (if their tiny house were built to scale). That said, in these same major markets, it costs $350K + to even buy a single family home. It's still a steal, at least from my standpoint. To each their own (shrug)

Beyond the presentation of an endless number of (great!) tiny homes, it would be cool to hear more about water/electricity set up, moving, staying permits, etc to complete the view on tiny house reality (especially for mobile homes). At least in Western Europe it seems it hard to even find any place where you are allowed to put something like this, let alone connect it up with sewage, electricy, water and you would still pay rent or have to buy the ground it's parked on making it more like an e.g. 170k investment into an apartment that you still need to pay rent on. Then if you wanted to move it, you would not move it often and would again be lucky to find a place to put it where you want it to be. How does all that work in the US? Very curious.

there are lots you can rent in the us for a small amount to have it placed there along with hooking it up to water also. and truck stops i’m pretty sure you can park there temporarily or pretty much any public parking lot like at a walmart or something. but most people with these types of homes are either at a trailer park for a monthly fee for the lot or constantly traveling

Sebastian, we have all of those same issues here in the USA. Very few states make it easy to have a tiny home. Lots of bureaucracy and laws preventing homes of a certain (small) size in certain (e.g. the most desirable) areas. Only a handful of states seem to have tiny home communities. We got one in my city very recently and it's only a few homes and all are occupied -- and the developers had to jump thru hoops to make it happen. I agree with you about the "170K investment in a rental". Any lot rental fees in/near a bustling American city are going to reflect that in cost. Not everyone can move out into the extremely rural areas to keep costs down.

There are places that allow ADU (additional dwelling units) to allow people to allow their parents or adult children to live on their property or to rent out. Also, out in the country (farm land) the laws on what you can do with your property is more relaxed so you can have people stay on your land, sometimes trading some work for permission to park the land. Check out Fy Nyth, she did it that way for years.

"You don't have to be in a relationship to afford it." Yes, indeed. Very nice house. Love the layout and the decor. Loved the kitchen counter shape, the sofa, and the bathroom. I usually don't like when the bathroom is right next to the kitchen, but it was not bad the way it was designed.

She gave the name of the builder "Mitchcraft" and some put it in their comments. You can google where tiny homes can stay. Seems you have a few choices. Friends, family or you can stay at RV parks that allow tiny homes. So it would be one of those for her considering she wants to be able to move to be near her children when they venture into the adult world.

Incredibly well designed tiny home. In Colorado 150 -170,000 for a home is a bargain however in the majority of the country that is a pretty big price tag for a tiny house. There needs to be places country wide that allow tiny house communities where you can actually purchase your lot. Until that time it is still challenging to find places to keep your home and very expensive to rent community spaces. i still believe tiny houses are the path to affordable housing a preventing homelessness.

Tiny homes used to be more affordable, even with "high ticket extras." However, when they began to trend as oh-so-darling little weekend getaways and Airbnb's, builders upped their prices. It's a shame, because tiny homes could have been a path for upward mobility. That's no longer the case, unless one can buy a shell and do all of the extra work alone--or with the help of family and friends.
