The truth is, they didn’t have tiny house parking figured out before they started building because they just started building their tiny house on family land and figured it would all work out.
And lucky for them, it worked out quite nicely! Once the word got out as to what they were doing, it came up that Zeena’s father-in-law goes to church with someone who has 5 acres of agricultural land. And that’s how they landed a deal to park their tiny home on wheels for $400 per month in a location that they absolutely love. So that’s how they did it, but it’s not always this easy! And while they don’t recommend it doing it this way (blind faith), they did come up with 6 questions to ask yourself before finding land for your tiny house that might be really helpful for you (see below).

How They Figured Out Where To Park Their Tiny House in Hawaii
They built their home on family land, and feel blessed to be able to rent from a family friend on this amazing piece of property in Hawaii.
They use the sun for power, and the rain to collect water.
This is their rainwater storage system with solar panels behind it.
It looks like a fairytale, doesn’t it?
Our Tiny Compound
We built our home on family land and moved it to this semi permanent ?location. This is the land we rent from a family friend. .
We are fully off-grid working with the sun and rain to meet our daily needs of electricity and water. .
We are so thankful and blessed to have this opportunity to stay in Hawaii (where my husband and I grew up)and own a home without hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. .
We have sacrificed a lot to live this lifestyle but it’s returned such a gift of partnership with the land we didn’t realized we would love so much.

Simplicity is freedom✌?
