My wife and i were featured on HGTV "Tiny house big living". We have several short term rentals in the atlanta area. We purchased/ designed and built the tiny house for 50k. We are using it as a short term rental property currently. We make between 1800-2500 a month on this 400sq ft cash cow. The link is below!!

@Darrel Maxam I just came to Atlanta on vacation from Japan. @Anna Watkins told me about your project and I was blown away by the photos. To be honest, after living in Japan, the space doesn't seem so tiny, but that just shows extremely well planned and executed use of space. I love it!

This is fantastic! I'm rehabbing a home with quarters for an Airb&b in East Atlanta. That neighborhood is a hot market! My house will be on the market in September.
@Cody L. I am in interested in this as well in Temecula on a lot of land. Is this a possibility? I have been bit by the real estate bug!
No idea. With the rules in cali who knows. I have lots of land around various apt buildings so doing an experiement with some containers was fun. Not as bunch BS hoops out in Houston.

@Darrel Maxam I saw picture of the tiny house looked like a nice set up. Can you list a set of instructions of one was trying to do this? I am trying to understand what you did exactly. From what I am understanding a vacant lot and you put Tiny houses on landscape made it seem like a retreat. If if you have a list of steps you took I think a lot of new investors can make use of it thank you!

@Cody L. Would you be willing to share some of the experiences you've had with the sf container homes? Perhaps starting a new thread and linking to it here?
I see that many of us are interested in what you have done. Don't mean to put you on the spot but I'm really fascinated by that.

@Darrel Maxam I just spoke with a tiny home builder today and it was a great conversation. He said he goes to home and garden shows and there is always like 500 people wanting to go inside and look! I just spoke with the county about the zoning and they say they allow a rv park. Takes 9 months and a nice roll of cash! Any tips or advice here thank you! I am in love with tiny homes now I have been looking a tiny several for sale.

I wish I could figure put how to message people from within the BP app - am I missing something? I also can't see any options to add someone as a colleague from within the app...?
Darrel Maxam this is an awesome story and I love your tiny house! I was wondering if you could tell me about zoning and how you handled that/gathered the necessary info? I like in Dekalb County and have thought about building a tiny house, but don't know what the zoning situation would be here...I see you are in East Point.

Hi Darrel Maxam my friend and I were just talking about something like this yesterday. My background is multifamily buy and hold properties but this sounds really exciting.
My plan would be to buy a property that has a main house and some acreage, put a few tiny homes on it, and list everything on airbnb.
Do your tiny homes have utilities? It looks like they do...how did you get electricity and water out to them, and did you need any permits to do that portion?
Thanks!
Robert.

@Darrel Maxam Hey Darrel, I see this post is about two years old.. I am trying to build a tiny home in my backyard on the Westside of Atlanta. I have a few questions to ask if you're available. Thank you!
