I have a NOAH certified, fully furnished tiny home on wheels listed at $59,900 — previously used as an Airbnb, delivery available nationwide. Curious if anyone has explored THOWs as an alternative investment strategy or has tips on finding the right buyer. Any advice welcome!
Tiny homes don’t appeal to everyone. Most buyers fall into a few groups:
Airbnb or short term rental investors
People wanting a minimalist lifestyle
Land owners adding a second unit (ADU)
The biggest issue is usually zoning and financing. Some tiny homes are treated like real property, others like RVs. That can limit who can buy and how they can finance it.
If you’re trying to sell it, I’d focus on:
Marketing it as an income property if short term rentals are allowed
Targeting Airbnb and investor groups
Selling it with land if possible (this makes a big difference)
The clearer you are on where it can go, how it’s classified, and how it can make money, the easier it is to find a serious buyer.
Are you selling it with land or just the home? That changes everything.
