This is the story of how one man and his girlfriend are building a cheap, DIY 200 sq. ft. tiny home on wheels. So far, they’ve spent only $7,000 on it (but it’s not 100% finished yet).
Throughout all of my years learning about and re-sharing tiny house stories, I’ve found that the most affordable way to buy a tiny house is by building it yourself because otherwise you have to pay for labor and materials. Makes sense, right?
So this is Mark Alford and Eliana Chinea’s tiny house project. Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!
