Are tiny homes right for you?
The draw
Compact living, Instagrammable, “little house” freedom.
The friction
Expensive per square foot, long build times, strict permits like houses, not truly flexible.
What you want
Simplicity, style, affordability, and flexibility to scale without months of construction
That’s why many who look at tiny homes end up choosing yurts — same cozy footprint, but faster, lighter, and better value.
The same minimal lifestyle, without the house rules
Tiny homes give you less space — but not less hassle. They’re still houses, with construction timelines and regulations. Yurts deliver the same minimal footprint, but with light, flow, and nature built in. Guests love the round calm; operators love the speed and ROI.

Case slice: from tiny house idea to yurt reality
