Tiny houses \u2013 some might even call them teeny-tiny \u2013 are growing in popularity among buyers in the second home market. Some are even making them their primary residence.<\/p>\n<p>Leaf House, a tiny home builder based out of Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada, has downsized from its 215-square-foot house that can sleep a family of four, to it\u2019s most recent 97-square-foot model. The smaller version is constructed with vacuum insulation panels and is designed to withstand the extreme cold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing so well insulated, the tiny house doesn&#8217;t need a lot of heating; In fact, all it has are two radiant electric panels totaling only 800 watts. We&#8217;re talking a hair dryer here, turned to low,\u201d writes Lloyd Alter, managing editor of TreeHugger, in his recent review. Leaf House also builds custom tiny homes and can deliver the house or build it onsite.<\/p>\n<p>But not all tiny homes are about extreme living \u2013 some are also designed to give the home owner a little luxury.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Portland, Ore.-based home builder Tiny Heirloom specializes in luxury homes on wheels with 100 percent customizable floor plans, design, and insulation. Their base model packages start at $65,000, and comes with granite countertops, real-wood or bamboo flooring, stainless steel appliances, a washer\/dryer combo unit, a wind or solar package, and more. They also throw in one flight from anywhere in the lower 48 states, to meet the team and see the home under construction.<\/p>\n<p>The small home movement isn\u2019t just for those who want to live off the grid, either.<em> Country Living<\/em> magazine has an entire section of their website dedicated to little homes, and recently published, \u201c44 of the Most Impressive Tiny Houses You\u2019ve Ever Seen,\u201d highlighting small homes from all over the country.<\/p>\n<p>Real estate pros should check their local ordinances on the minimum square footage requirement for a building permit \u2013 some tiny homes may not even need a building permit. Tiny homes are also an option for buyers seeking land for recreational purposes, such as hunting, fishing, or weekend getaways.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: \u201cLeaf 3 is a tiny house designed for seriously cold climates,\u201d Treehugger (Jan. 14, 2015) and \u201cTiny houses are welcoming retreats,\u201d The Courier-Journal (Jan. 14, 2015)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Hot Trend to Watch: Tiny Homes Could you imagine living in 97 square feet?
