I remember watching a documentary show on “Tiny Living,” people buying tiny homes and figuring out how to live smaller and keep housing budget down.
Was fascinating, and my wife and I were considering it as a housing option prior to the pandemic. Turned out in every case, their parents either financed the project (and assisted in the build) or owned the land it was parked on, and they were hooking into parents’ utilities (which was my main question, how were they getting power and water?).
I was disenfranchised, to say the least. In most cases even with parental help it cost barely less than actual home ownership. Most of them were planning to live there temporarily and then AirBnB it. 🙄
