How Much Does it Cost to Build a Tiny Home?
One of the most frequent questions I am asked regarding tiny homes is how much does it cost to build one. Jay Shafer has stated that both of his personal Tumbleweed ran around $15,000 in materials. I have seen similar figures quoted by a couple of the do-it-yourselfers.
Will Pedersen, who is just finishing up construction on a Tumbleweed Tarleton, has kept fairly close notes of his costs and provided a detailed break-down to Tumbleweed Tiny House Company. Will used materials that are readily available at local lumber and hardware stores. However, his windows, door, and countertops are custom made. To-date, he’s spent roughly $13,400 U.S. ($18,200 Canadian).
A larger view of his costs can be viewed here. (Courtesy of the Tumbleweed Tiny House website.)
Pictures of Will’s Tarleton being built are available on TinyHouseBlog.com.

I’m perfectly okay with free speech. What I’m not okay with is people interested in tearing others down without being willing to participate in a better solution. Or people who simply want to espouse their own inflammatory positions rather than participating in an actual conversation. If you want to have a pulpit, I would suggest establishing your own blog.
