Have you thought about where you might be in 20 years? Perhaps you’ll be advancing in your career or spending quality time with your pet. But what about residing in a tiny house that costs less than $28,000?

While that sum is still significant, consider getting two stories, two deck spaces, and ample natural light. That, indeed, is what one might call a deal.

Given the sharp rise in house prices over the past few decades, many people are now reimagining their ‘perfect home’ to align with a more feasible financial plan.

Jay Shafer, the pioneer of the tiny home movement, shared with The US Sun: “Even 25 years ago it was not hard to see how the housing crisis was already happening for a lot of us.

“It became clearer in 2008, and I think that it’s just, the housing crisis has been perpetuated by a lot of bad laws that prohibit efficiency and affordable housing and until we fix those the crisis will continue.”

In response to the escalating costs, tiny houses have gained popularity, with influencers providing glimpses into their compact living experiences within these small-scale homes.

This $27,990 dwelling, available on Amazon, offers potential buyers slightly more space than most tiny homes. Its design, featuring a second floor and offset layout, creates two outdoor areas ideal for seating, grilling, or enjoying time with pets.

The structure reaches a height of 20 feet and measures 20 feet by 8 feet, offering space inside for kitchen essentials, a sleeping area, a bathroom, and a living space.

Prospective tiny home owners will need a plot of land to place it on, but its compact size means it occupies far less space than a conventional new build.

Designed to endure adverse weather, this prefabricated home can withstand earthquakes, wind, and rain, and is described as ‘easy to install’, allowing new occupants to move in almost ‘immediately’.

The seller, Emonia, notes: “Our Prefab house can be used for 20 years, with free maintenance within six months.”

This two-story model is among several offered by the manufacturer, who also deals in furniture sales.
