Tiny Estates is a large thriving tiny house village in Elizabethtown, PA--residents of all ages shared all the benefits they've enjoyed while living there.❤ Now the creator, Abby is working to create 40 more communities across the USA--5 expected to be announced in 2023! Her vision is to create affordable, beautiful villages with spacious lots. See link above to learn more. 🏡 *Check out Bonnie & Ty's THOW at Tiny Estates:* ruclips.net/video/bq-w2Rh3_Z4/видео.html
Thank you for showcasing this community! It's what every city/town could use. I admire Abby for being able to work with that many people and personalities! I couldn't imagine planning out that many home sites, but I'm sure glad there is someone who is thriving in that role! What a blessing to the community! 😊
@@DawnOldham most welcome! Abby created & her team are good people who are doing what they can to create as many quality tiny communities as they can ❤️
I like all the work they’re doing to create more tiny home communities and wish them all the best.
I absolutely love this community and their ideas. Seems like a great place to live. This is what we need, to get everyone out talking, helping each other. Kinda takes you back k in time when people helped people, shared with neighbors, bartered things or time. Love it! Great job!❤
I'd love to start this where I live. How would I start a Tiny House Village? I love your layout.
The green bee stay at home mom hit my heart. Keep your chin up and know that your 20 years of raising a family was incredibly important.
💕
Absolutely and she would have a massive list of skills and experience over that 20 years. People underestimate the amount of skills required to raise children and keep a house.
The Green Bean was once half house half workshop!
I can so relate, I was a stay at home Mum for 13 years, and the last 3 of those I was actively trying to get back into the workforce. I was treated like a second-class citizen, and it got me down, but on reflection, I will never let anybody make me feel less-than for making the right choice for my family at that time.
Oh heck ya. That's where working with a professional to have a resume' crafted is so important. The 'stay-at-home' moms are CEOs.
Man I wish with ALL OF MY HEART we would adopt this idea worldwide. It's devastating how little we care for each other. There should be no homeless when there is so much money. These are sustainable and smart and human. Logical. Duh 🙄 to all who just don't get it. Imagine how many would benefit from these in every city??❤
There are several Tiny Home Advocates working on just that idea! Keep watching this channel to see more from around the world!
You can thank the nameless bureaucrats that subscribe to NIMBY. One option is using the American with Disabilities Act, where a town or city cannot discriminate against an elderly or disabled individual that wanted to place a tiny home or a park model on someones property, hooking up utilities, water, sewer to existing. The owner could pay the land owner a monthly amount to help them with their property taxes. A Win-Win situation.
Imagine having the broke back tranq addicts crooked walking down your lovely paths…you don’t really want the drugs here…also it’s hard for seniors to climb up the tiny ladders and crawling out of bed…there’s a shelf life for a tiny low ceiling loft…
@annc3908 there are several one level homes just right for that. What makes them any less worthy? Let's hope you or anyone you love never suffers from a terrible disease. I'm sure it really sucks for them and anyone who may love them.
Living in a tent now and car. Me and my guy are working on our tiny home. We are excited to start this.
Best warm wishes with your tiny home plans ❤️
Wishing you all the best❤
❤
Awesome, congratulations
What a wonderful place! We definitely need these types of affordable tiny communities all across the nation! ❤
Absolutely!!
I totally agree
Absolutely fabulous! I hope they spread EVERYWHERE. We need more communities like these. 🥰
Me to I hope they spread to
We hope so too!
We need more communities like this. It's the America used to be.
I just love the variety your channel offers. This was so interesting. I really felt for the lady who said she didn't exist because she had been a stay at home mom. That says so much about our society. I love the interaction of the residents. People helping other people!
People can really be wonderful, especially in supportive settings like this. ❤️ We really appreciate your feedback!
The birds chirping in the distance throughout really speaks to the vibe of this place
🐦💞
Big applause to Abby, she totally gets it! What a wonderful community that actually brings back what community means
💯❣️
The money side works well to for the land owner. Getting to 100 lots will make it even more viable.
Abby is a smart lady. Affordable housing is a huge need everywhere! People have different interests and tastes, so, cookie cutter housing is outdated and unwanted by most. This is such a great answer!
The lot rent is over priced, I found some $200-$300 monthly ith in Tennessee
It varies a lot by location; rural locations tend to be less. This is in a great smaller town (2 minutes to grocery, coffee & restaurants) with good amenities & nature access, super close to a small city with all lots of shopping & entertainment. What’s great about lot rent here is it included all utilities & internet, plus all the facilities in the clubhouse. Electric & internet typically aren’t included other places.
🙌 💯 She really is a smart resourceful lady with vision.
I love the concept of renting different types of units to try out tiny living. I would only want to see if the villages would build communal underground storm shelters since many of these homes are on wheels.
@@hellothere22766 I know people who bought land in TN. Beautiful! It is too much here.
Imagine if we had more communities like this! People would be so much happier! I love it.
I live in Knoxville Tn, and there is a growing tiny home movement here. My wife is a nurse, and a few of her younger coworkers (not that we are old (we are)) are going the tiny home route and it seems to be a great alternative to 20/30 year mortgages. It's still kind of early, but it seems like a great financial answer to a financial problem.
Finally a gorgeous setting for a tiny community with trees and water! Amazing.
This is a Little Mayberry. The sense of “good neighbors” is perfection.
The problem with mobile home/RV communities is that investors are buying them up and displacing the residents. This is a huge issue inn Austin, with equity mgt companies buying up mobile home parks and contributing the unaffordablity of Austin. I recommend you put a deed restriction on the property.
This is a very important point. Safeguards are needed
@@mschief-central4940Here's an idea: municipality-owned tiny home parks run as nonprofit agencies. Like how the city of Green Bay owns the Packers.
@@NJGuy1973 I like it!
I spoke to Abby back in January this year and she was nice and helpful, I wanted prices on renting and purchasing. I live in Phila PA and Elizabethtown PA is about 45mins to hr away. The prices for me was good considering the prices for a one bedroom in Philly (in a nice area) is $1545 to well over $2000. Unfortunately, I was laid off but I haven't given up and hopefully I will be given Abby a call next year.
Sorry to hear about your layoff! We hope things turn around for you soon and you are able to move to Tiny Estates.
Wishing you all the best! ❤
This is incredible storytelling. I love the whole tiny homes community aesthetic. I would suggest TinyPocket Homes if you're on a low budget and what the same level of design aesthetic. $6,000 will get you something decent
How do I contact them i have a budget of $9000
Melbourne? That's awesome I will definitely reach out to them
They also ship and build here in Melbourne best Australian modular home company I've worked with so far
I've been trying to reach out to them recently ever since my neighbor got one from them.
My family needs this right now pls your email
This is a beautiful Tiny Home community! I hope they can go national!😊⭐
That’s the plan-stay tuned! ☺️💕
Me to
lets support the tiny house movement even in chicago and new york all 50 states of america 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
❣❣ We NEED more communities like this. I'm looking forward to watching the Tiny Estates journey to creating 40+ more tiny home communities!
💯💕
Towns need to be more open to this.
That’s a Blessing that she got a tiny home I happy for her iam a widow worked with my husband I want one
Back to the Future of community. We need more!
For sure! Living in a community can be such a wonderful experience.
I'm in WA state. THIS IS EXACTLY what I wish for in my mind. I'm in a senior mobile home park -- I own my coach -- but gosh I wish I could go tiny!
As someone who has fervently wished to live in this way for 20-plus years: and knows how difficult it is per regulations, minimal availability, etc., I am in such admiration of the two (plus) of you! All that you offer/continue to add...amazing. And, it brought tears t
Oh my! I love 💕 the pot belly pig!!! Great community. ❤
Too cute! 🐷
I know!! And the cutest puppies, just to see them makes me feel happy!
So neat to learn more about the tiny community 15 minutes from me!
Happy to share! 😊
🥰🥰 I saw our 🏡Harbor🏡 a couple of times! 🎉🎉 Abby is amazing to work with. Livi and I stayed at Tiny Estates before buying our 2nd tiny. I can’t wait to see Tiny Estates expand in this way. 🥰🎉
Abby is a gem! So happy y’all had a great experience with Tiny Estates and hope we can swing your way on our next trip that way! 💕
You guys inspires a lot of people to appreciate tiny home lifestyle and community. ✨✨
Thank you kindly ❤️❤️ That is our goal!
This is a great Community!! I love that tiny home parking it becoming more widely available
It's such an exciting time of growth! And a real relief, as more legal THOW parking is the biggest need in the movement
I lived in a homeless yent camp, this was our dream! I now have a very nice apt., But i miss COMMUNITY so very much. Thank You for your gorgeous effort - WE are meant to be TOGETHER😍.💝💯♾️
Thanks for sharing!
Love the diversity of people at your location. 😊
Bam 💥!!! I found where I’m going to move when I’m on my own. I am my mother’s caregiver right now. I live in Pennsylvania and this looks amazing. I want a tiny house AND live the outdoors. I also love water, so the pond is awesome.
Best wishes with your future tiny home plans! 💕
I love this!!! This is a true diffention of
Community is "Togetherness!"
absolutely!
Wow this is BEAUTIFUL!!! Congratulations on a beautiful property and community!!! I wish there was a place like this near me! 😊
Head to the Tiny Estates website and put in a request! tiny-estates.com/communities
Abby and her team are incredible!! So much hard work. I am envious I can't live here!
There is a major need for this in Central/ Northern AZ.

Good Evening, This Tiny House Building and Community Living is Beautiful. Every House is build different and inside is Gorgeous. Houses are so expensive and this ideal is Awesome. Thanks for Sharing Enjoyed and Blessings 🙏❤️🥰😇 From Pennsylvania,USA
You are so welcome!
Needing Affordable Housing like this in Washington! Everyday, this is my dream, and my affirmation.. I love my Tiny Home..
Affordable…some of these are over $100k plus lot rent $750/month. It’s not cheap and typically pretty far from the work zones so they have to commute. Be careful choosing something you know nothing about…
Beautiful community..❤️ I live in Colorado and we have a few tiny home communities. I always wanted to have a fenced in yard for my dog..looks like the only option is the dog park.Hope you are able to go national with more tiny home communities 🙏❤️🙏
Thanks for sharing the love!
...thought I'd 'lost' this. Very heartwarming to hear community member's sharing(s) with regard to how much they appreciate this aspect (connection) per their homes.
You two have the best videos on Tiny Living than all other channels. You do a great job!
Thank you very much! 🥰
WE NEED ONE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA ❤
It's funny....here in southish Florida, you hear people talk and they are disgusted by people living in vans ets...but they all want the pool cleaned and Starbucks and waiters at restaurants and roofers and golf course workers but living costs/rent eats the majority of monthly income. After rent and utilities are paid, I have NO money to go out to eat, go to a movie, pay for a haircut, support a food truck, donate to a charity, give money to the church...on and on it goes. Very little of my money goes back into the community that I live in. If city leaders could understand how much $ is being lost...but most of them hold on to rich retired people to fund everything....not understanding that they are all dieing soon. Anyway, here in Naples, people drive an hour or more to work because they cannot afford to live in the community that they work....it's a joke.
am excited to see this development in PA - gives me hope that we could have similar ones across the border 🇨🇦 have basically only seen successful tiny home living in warm weather locals - as someone who loves living in 🇨🇦a four season country - your tiny home developments give me hope - I’ve lived small quiet (well mostly quiet) lives in studio apts for over 45 yrs - winter in a tiny home not a problem per say - it’s the community involvement that would make it possible (snow removal / community hub to meet in with laundry and full-size stove/oven ) so a single young senior with some health issues - living in a community like you’re describing would give me independence but also connections so I wasn’t isolated - congratulations on getting this far 🙏💕 for your continued endeavours 🙏💕
Thank you for your videos and especially this one. Seeing a developer actively working to expand into other places is great! Having something that allows creativity and individuality while being affordable is what is really needed in today's economic reality.
We couldn’t agree more! You’re very welcome 😊
So nice! It's so beautiful! I could actually afford this!! I am in the same mind set of getting rid of all the stuff that I don't use and the kids don't want.
I've been watching so many tiny home Villages videos and none of them seem to be on the East Coast so this is great we need more on the East Coast for people like me who might be considering tiny homes. You need to get the spot first in many instances. I live in Maryland and I wish there was something like this. And you have trees!. I do wish the houses were a little farther apart I couldn't live that close to someone where you can hear everything just a tiny bit more land or a tree in between would be fabulous
Its not often we see a great tiny home community on the Northeast. Im from jersey an this place is 2 hours away. Hopefully in the future we can have alot more living options like this.
Cheers to that! 🍻
New Jersey residents don't want to see people being happy with less. I should know. I'm a lifelong resident.
@@NJGuy1973 I live in New Jersey and for me it's important that I can maintain the value of my property. I personally would not want to be the house next to a tiny house village.
@@SusanChristmas So who gets stuck with the house next to the tiny house village?
@@NJGuy1973 I personally do not want any tiny house villages. So I would hope no one would get stuck next to one.
Cool property!!!
I would love to live here. Im living in my car and want to purchase a tiny home. Its difficult saving,but I'm working at it. ❤❤ It's wonderful to see someone who gets it. The need is great.
Best wishes with your plans ❤️💕
Love the Moondance! The tree, the bookshelf! I get the possession thing.
I'd love to see communities like this in Western Washington!
I currently live in Reno and these humongous complexes have sprung up allover...I think the architects got their inspiration from 1950's Soviet housing complexes!!
This is definitely needed in south Florida! So many renters are being out priced and they have no where to go!
Fill out this form to let them know 😊 tiny-estates.com/bring-a-community-to-me
Great option for a home. Still like traditional homes as my first choice - nothing wrong with having space to move around.
What a beautiful, affordable community! I love the diversity and all the different styles and color. Awesome use of a nice piece of property!
The diversity makes for a delightful atmosphere 👌✨😊
Wow, this is amazing. Great people in great homes in a great community.
Really a wonderful place to call home
Thank you, Alexis and Christian! good edit
Appreciate the kind feedback! Thank you for being part of this and sharing your tiny home journey with us ❤️
Mailboxes should be more secure. In my apartment complex they are all together and postal carrier can unlock all at once then we each have individual keys that only opens our own box. Checks and other bills allow identity theft these days.
Excellent point.
We don't have mail delivery.
@@ellen3sons How do residents get their mail? And do they have a legal address to use for things like a credit card or vehicle registration? Thanks.
There is a tiny house on the property that is a dedicated mail center. All the mailboxes are in one place and packages are secure within the house. Take a look at it at 6:55
Happy Friday! I just sent Tiny Estates an email to come visit prior to this video❤Looks very nice!
Right on! ☺️ Abby & team are great folks
Illinois Needs it!!
Tiny Estates looks like a place i would love to live at. i moved to Florida in 1971 from Long Island New York and i am ready to get out of Florida. i love the Tiny homes i have seen and when i see them i think of the one bedroom one bath i live in and the Tiny homes have more space in them. when you have utilities included in the rent that is fantastic. i hope i might be able to visit Tiny Estates one day.
Hope you get to do that! 💕
I like that she is planning to develop communities in other states for those looking for affordable housing 😊
Really exciting & much needed!
@@TinyHouseExpedition Bless 🙌🏽 you with your future endeavors
Sounds like an awesome community to live , love the affortable housing how nice , esspecially love that you can try one out and if interested you can buy or rent WOW that is awesome . wish they had something like this in Ontario, Canada . Great work Abby .
I want to live there when I retire!!!!
What a great mission!! Loved this video ❣
Thank you! We love how much Abby & her team truly care about all they do 💗
It looks so tranquil and beautiful there.
It is!
Will there be a list of states where these new tiny home communities will located.? Hope Arkansas will be one.
Yes! There’s a few coming soon communities posted. More to come as they get confirmed or new ones in the works. Here’s the site: tiny-estates.com/communities
Awesome & inspiring!! ❤
💗
Thank you
Would have loved to see inside some of those tiny homes. 🙂
We hear you! 😊 There’s a little of Emily & Dillon’s and here’s the full tour of Bonnie & Ty’s: ruclips.net/video/bq-w2Rh3_Z4/видео.html
@@TinyHouseExpedition thanks! 😊
What are winters like in your area? I love the thought of a community, being part of something. You have done a wonderful job creating something special!
Never saw one in pa finally yay!!!
I wish this option could be available worldwide for anyone who would like something more affordable.
❤❤❤ it's amazingly amazing
💕
I wish Canada would build more of these villages. Affordable for the majority of our families, young or older retirees. My granddaughters cannot afford to rent or buy at all. My husband and I live in a small modular home in a campground/adult community. Not huge or expensive. All amenities. We can now afford to travel and breathe. All governments here give a lot of blockages to make this happen. Keep this up!👍
So happy for you!!
What a wonderful community 🙏💖🙏
It sure is!
Excellent video. I have seen you all before... but really like that this video explains so much. Love you that you all are planning on doing these in other states than PA.
We need more community like this. Can we have a list ?
As new tiny home communities by Tiny Estates get approved, they’ll post here: tiny-estates.com/communities 😀 also check out SearchTinyHouseVillages.com
YES COME TO FLORIDA
Great video…this tiny community is really cool!
Thank you kindly!
Happy Friday THE😀n This is Gonna b so Good🔥🔥🔥👍….
Cheers❣️
The state of Tennessee legislation just passed a bill making it easier for Tiny Home Communities in Tennessee. PLEASE consider the Knoxville area. Thank you
Please, consider Michigan for one of your Tiny Estates! I'd love to go tiny, but we don't have tiny house communities in the state as yet. With both the lower and upper peninsulas surrounded by the Great Lakes, not to mention the thousands of inland lakes and lots of wooded property, Michigan would be a great place for one of your communities. Obviously, I'm very impressed with what you have in PA! ❤️
Omg I love this I'm looking into a tiny house and a tiny house community this looks so cool
I wish we had these communities Canada...
This is my dream come true! Sandpoint Idaho is in desperate need of affordable housing. I have five women including myself who all would like a place to put a tiny home! I’ll go to her website and get more interested parties. ❤
Wish there was one where it did now snow. Love it.
Amazing!
Please come to GA!!
Fantastic episode. Thank you!
You’re most welcome! ☺️
This is by far one of your best episode yet!
Ahh thank you! 🥰
Would love to hear more about infrastructure of agriculture land to permit for tiny house community!!
This lifestyle is pretty much co-housing, but more efficient with Tiny Homes. The community planning is quite admirable!!😊 please start a community in south Colorado.
Head to their website and add your location to the list! tiny-estates.com/communities
I love this and have been looking for potential properties 💛 I’d like to include solar or wind energy options as well
WOW, that is a Nice Place..
PLEASE do this in COS!
I love this!
Great video! Great find, great story.
Thank you kindly 🥰 we thrilled to return & see how far they’ve come after first visiting with our THOW not long after they opened in 2018!
