Is anyone interested in discussing the use of THOWs as investment properties? I would love to talk to you.

Hey @Kandi Sterling, not a new frontier. This has been going on for a number of years.

Basically it has limited appeal for mass market. Unless the place in an amazing location that couldn't support a full size home, you are better off doing a regular place.

A tiny home isn't considered real property. It is more of an RV or the like. It adds little to no value to the land. What adds value is the sewer/septic, water and electric at the site.

If the tiny home is more like a medium home (600+ sqft) on a foundation, then you should be able to look at it as a "stick built" or normal home, just small.

If you do a search, you will find some info.
