Having been a California contractor for a number of years fighting against all of this ridiculous fees charges inspection to sewer fees just to be able to begin to build helps me understand the ridiculousness in the situation we are in today with so many homeless. Bureaucracies have swallowed absolutely swallowed us up.
TRUE. It is stupid economy, creating BS jobs, bureaucracy and charges to make money for the city..like cops giving tickets and arresting ppl for BS..City money.
like dirty unions that keep everything for them to do when comes too building and how we build which benefits some group or business.
We are too dirty in our business with each other.
Its a shame bc we could make the world beutiful if ppl would just get over their own BS.
Tiny is the future and will solve the homeless problem which is also about greed.
America richest country in world and has the most ppl in prison and living on the streets. something is wrong.
In 1976 my family of seven lived in a 12 x 24 cabin with outdoor shower. We slept on bed rolls on the floor and didn't have all this fancy stuff you see now-a-days. Tiny homes have been around for a long time.
What a great opportunity for young adults to learn while they’re in high school. I wish we had this when I was in high school. I might have had a totally different, more fulfilling, career.
Much needed in these critical times. A granny myself I don’t want to impose on anyone. I love my independence and living alone but not too far from family. So I commend the workers for their development in tiny homes. And those involved in making this work for communities and elderly as myself. Thank you 🙏
An extended family should be able to buy a lot and put half a dozen tiny houses on it so everyone could be together yet apart. Have a park or playground in the middle, maybe a large barbeque for all to use.
Then you'd have a little community of your own.
It be cheaper group home movement
I am in LOVE with tiny homes! ❤️😍❤️ As a person disabled by Multiple Chemical Sensitivities I can see this working for me. A 3D printer Hempcrete Tiny Home with no VOCs or toxic chemicals.
This is a fantastic education for these kids. I remember in 8th grade our math class built a sail cart which was pretty neat…it’s hard to concentrate on anything else when your building something so spectacular as a tiny home.
My parents have an empty lot behind their home...we wanted to put a tiny home on the lot...It would cost over ten thousand dollars just to get the permits...I feel very discouraged I wished my community would see the benefits s to the tiny house movement
If it’s on wheels would you need a permit?
Maybe if you could get a rent to own piece of land on even on wheels in an RV park. I don't know what country you are in but in USA it's possible to have tiny home living cheaply
Every high school should have a tiny house construction program ... even if kids have no desire to move into the trades they will gain invaluable practical skills that will empower them. I built a 2,600 square foot stick home from the ground up when I was 30 years old. Other than being a parent, it was hands down the most expansive and rewarding experience of my life.
Right EXACTLY!I Agree 1,000%👍👍👏👏🎯💯💯💯💪🙏💖✌👊😇
@Amazon Redhead Love it!

People need to remember our comfort today is not a guarantee. So we must do something for our relatives out there who need a place to call home too. Just like us.
I am preparing to move into my Van and snowbird...I moved out of my apartment because I could no longer afford $785/month rent on $930/mo from Social Security. I turned 70 last year, and prospects for even a part time job are nonexistent. My dream for the last three years has been to live in a tiny house. Now, with the work your group has made, perhaps getting a TH can become a reality in PA. I know there are builders of Tiny Houses here, but getting the townships on board to let people to move into them is nigh onto impossible. Your Part One was inspirational and shows us that Town councils and planning board ARE approachable . Thank you. You have no idea how much your videos 1 and 2 have inspired me!
Hi! What are th logistics of living in van, vs apartment , in PA?
Amazing!!! I am so proud to see all these people working together to bring tiny homes to communities. The student are incredible, not only are they learning skills but they are building beautiful quality tiny homes for people! Kuddos to everyone involved in the tiny home movement, you are doing a wonderful thing for this planet!
This absolutely warms my heart. This is so wonderful. THANK YOU to all the people who have spoken for themselves and thousands of others. Thank you for giving me hope that living in a tiny home legally is possible.
This means so much to us. Greatly appreciate your support!
aa!!a!!a!!!! But

It’s ridiculous that some towns or cities don’t allow tiny homes but they will allow 10,000 sq ft homes that use up water, land, and poison ground water for their lawns
Those living in Tiny Homes are smart, no money demands & this has got Authorities up in arms because they are not receiving any TAX etc. They have forgotten it is the PEOPLE Who put them there not the other way around So people maintain your rights & stick together To all those who have had their say on this video Congratulations - 'You have made COMMON SENSE SOUND SOOOO GOOD' their is hope for this planet YET?
That's such a good point!
There are lots of questions about waste management and taxes that concern municipalities. Not that I agree with all those concerns.
As someone who is currently building my own dream tiny house, I thank you for sharing this excellent and inspiring documentary. Thank you!
That truly means so much to us. Thank you Ryon! :)
That was amazing,ive been a residential home builder for 35 years & my carear basically started much earlier with a facination of building forts much like a tiny home wich got me noticed by my nextdoor neighbor when he re-built his home back in 1985 he asked me if i wanted to help him during that summer to build his house because he liked my treehouse which was on the fenceline between his backyard & mine & the next summer i built wirh the neighbor across the street on there new giant shop/garage & then when i graduated in the summer of 87 went to work full time on a framing crew & it wasnt till the beggining of this year thar i started building genuine tiny homes on custom fabricated trailers.just completed the 3rd one this year & was really cool to see the movement gaining support like this, thank you all for your efforts.
I am fully impressed! It's just a complete ruclips.net/user/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 plan with the best resources and step by step instructions . These shed plans are so satisfying as if the sheds build themselves on their own. Worthy work Ryan!
Thank you everyone who makes it happen this. I really do appreciate your dedication. Good job 👍
Oh my God thank you for all of your efforts. There are so many lives that your actions will change out of desperation without hope into possibilities that save. Your courage, intelligence, preserving compassion, and its applications is awe inspiring. What a beautiful fight for exceptional Quality living. Love you all.
I know we at times when we have everything we need we fail to look at what is the needs of those less fortunate than us.
people who are involved this project was really really nice and lovely , I think. The world needs these kind of people more. Thanks for the video.
☺️✨
EXACTLY!!I agree 1,000%👍👍💯💯💯👏👏🎯💪🙏💖✌👊😇
I think it is absolutely wonderful what the CCA TX students have accomplished and their "hard work" should be credited with the what they have done and should be applauded everyday!!!!
I am most impressed by the students and the REAL educators presented in this video! They are actually teaching life skills and preparing these talented young persons with REAL, tangible assets that will ACTUALLY benefit them! The homes are BEYOND BEAUTIFUL!!! 💗💗💗It’s also teaching them the reality of dealing with this crumbling patriarchal system.🤮 Eye see drastic change on the horizon…. an age where greed cannot and will not exist.👁
About 20 years ago I was living in a converted school bus on Indian reservation land. I had that bus looking like a 5 star hotel.Would gladly have never moved.
That's, how I want to live the rest of my life. I love tiny homes.
OMG! That was great! I actually cried when the motions were voted on and then passed. Just thinking of all the work that was done to make this happen, so many involved in one way or another. And the fact that Alexis & Christian were there to document this....holy cow! How privileged you were to have been on your tiny house journey/documentary at this time in tiny house history! And what a very fine gift you put out there for us all to see, to understand, and to take part in history. Wow! I simply can't say it enough, wow 😢😍🏚.
This so valuable on many levels but one that comes to mind is for the younger people, like the high school students in the film, who did amazing work in TX and built those 4 homes. Their work and others like it will go that much easier because of the work that was shown in this beautiful doc.
Totally so happy right now! Love all the group effort! Off to send letters/emails of thanks!
Wow, your comment really made our day. Thank you very much for the encouraging feedback! We are incredibly grateful to have been able to document such historic tiny house happenings, and hope amplify the efforts of the many dedicated advocates that we document. We also hope to inspire positive change & empower others into action. :)
Me too!!

Bravo guys!!! I so appreciate all the hard work you do for this movement Now I can show "Part 2" to all my Canadian friends. :) There's more movement happening in Quebec and BC, but practically crickets here in Ontario. I'm hoping your documentaries will inspire more positive progress. Thank you et merci beaucoup! xo
Thank you very much, Gen! Love you goal.
Ontario has a tiny home town outside Goderich on lake huron. Unfortunately BC isnt being as progressive as Ontario and Quebec it seems.
This is absolutely brilliant- not only building tiny home communities but also establishing hands on building by high school students as part of their curriculum! What a win win solution for everyone - young & old, affordable, curriculum, trades, viable homes, careers, community etc. Blessings on all your creativity & the future.
This is outstanding!! I wish my High School had a program like this when I was growing up. These young adults are getting the opportunity to try many different skill trades to see what fits them best. Plumbing, electrical, solar, architecture, decorating, and so on. They are learning how to deal with City Codes and Inspectors. When it’s all done they sale them. If priced proeperly I imagine it raises money for the school as well. Everyone involved with this program should be very proud of what they have built.
Absolutely incredible program. Hope to see more like this!
Can't wait to build this summer!!!!!!!!!! Credit score on the up!!!!!!
I am so thankful for the people who have pushed this issue forward'' for approval' all the hard work that went into making this movement a success ' you all rock'' the world needs more people to make a stand where alternative living is in such demand' some one hasto make a difference ' or we will just end up with more homeless people and there familys and more sickness and deaths from exposure' thank you I love your ideas and love the tiny homes concept' bless you'
Thanks to all those involved in these proposals, those who voted either way (that’s true democracy) and to those involved in the production of the videos. This was beautiful to see, so many people with open minds who also brought a wealth of experience and knowledge it needed a lot of different people with different
The tiny / small house movement is a reality who's time has come. This country is experiencing a housing crisis which must be addressed.. and addressed with fairness and reason.
Thank you for these great documentaries! We are preparing to go before our City Planner and we have garnered great ideas and perspectives with which to approach him.
We greatly appreciate your kind words. So happy to hear it; best of luck! :)
I finally got to see something from my home town. Love watching all the tiny home episodes. X
The Business model of taking the bulk of you life to pay off a highly over inflated overpriced home/property is not a good choice for frugal people anymore.
Finally made time to watch both part 1 & 2 of Living Tiny Legally. Great job guys (as always) on the story and production. It was great to see behind the scenes of the IRC meeting. I had read (and heard - Tinyhouse podcast) about the build-up to the IRC meeting and it results. Being able to hear it form the people involved and see the challenges they went through to gave a new perspective to the momentous occasion. I liked how this documentary allowed us to put a face(s) to the names of some of the major players in the Tiny House Movement/industry. Since the code passed last year, I wonder how many other cities have worked to implement the rule changes?
Thanks again Alexis & Christian for all the time and effort you are putting in to document and share more stories about Tiny Housers. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for giving us an eye on the inside to the legal proceedings of people trying to legalize tiny the right way, seeing these people carves out a path for the rest of us who want to try and make tiny legal where we live ❤ I love this movement. Everyone in it is just so inspiring and I love talking to people who share that passion!
☺️🙏✊️
When I watched this I was so excited that there was real movement on this. Then I noticed the video was 4 years old. Really hoping I find more current videos showing a progression to approve tiny homes.
im so glaad you showed óne of these. big big price diff for a bigger home and work with your budget. this is exactly what ive been looking for and this seems to be the best company ive been searching for as well as quality of a home. thank you thank you thank you for this. i have been looking and comparing everything livable for myself for over 3 years and this is the first company that offers what ive been looking for. i knew there had to be someone out there that would do and could do exactly this for a person. all ive been hearing from every company is no company does what you just showed me in these last 2 homes of shed to homes. thank you so so much bc you have made me so ding dang happy proving there is companies out there that are willing to help others. 😊❤
So helpful to see how the process unfolds with identifying changes in codes needed and the community involvement needed to get those changes in place. Wonderful!
Love on how the students are involved I wish we had this is Wisconsin I want a tiny house
Thank you for this documentary. This is exactly what I needed to watch and learned so much. It has answered many of my questions as I move forward with my decision to live in a tiny house. Thank you again!
This turned out stunningly well guys!!! SO glad it was all documented!!
Thank you so much and for all your help to make this film a reality!
Awesome! The consumer mindset of bigger is better is taking a readjustment.
Just finished watching parts 1 and 2. If these films can't convince people of the benefits of tiny houses, I don't know what would. Great job, guys.
So many great people in this video, but how sweet is the train lover! Elderly but still open-minded and making a positive impact. @26:15
Wow! Fabulous concept. This kind of hands on education is necessary in every state across the USA❤️
I’m really proud of those of you who have been involved in getting all of this documentation approved and heard but all of the committees and commissions and the process I know has had a good grueling, but most of us are even aware that you’re working in the background for us who want a tiny home. I went to college to be an architect and all I was interested in was building a house making a beautiful home for someone. Having to deal with this portion of architecture never even occur to me so I applaud all of you who have worked diligently and precisely in Making it possible for tiny homes to be legally built and exist in amongst what has been known as “Normal housing & Building structure”.!!I’m grad there are those of you willing to not only do the “due diligence” work, But see it through all the way to legality tops of City & Government offices!!!! I am in AWE of everything you have been able to accomplish ❣️
I'm so glad i found this channel.
This was great to watch again! Congrats. Never give up!!!
Seems the main issue underlying the resistance of municipalities is property taxes.
i guess Im randomly asking but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the password. I love any assistance you can offer me!

@Caspian Eliseo i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Caspian Eliseo It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Zahir Emiliano Glad I could help =)
These students are amazing! So are the instructors 🥰
Very cool that the school is building houses.
Wow, that’s an education for students!!!!

this is how civilization progresses & evolves.
thank you to all involved, kudos!
cheers from Portugal
Thank you for your endless passion about the tiny house legal life. I supported that ICC thru the Andrew and also both of you guys. I am glad to see all those effort and outcome.
We greatly appreciate your support. This is definitely a passion project. :)
This was an amazing documentary! I am so glad you made this! If ever I had a tiny house, it would be on wheels so I could go visit my kids when they grow up and not be intrusive to them, but rather, have my own space with me. I would love to follow the nice weather across the country with my tiny house... Avoid heavy cold and snow, avoid really hot weather, etc and take my house to various wilderness areas to enjoy nature. For me, it would be a travel adventure and a lifestyle. I already have a lifestyle of travel and wish I had a tiny house to take with me now! I have been traveling in Central and South America and boy wouldn't it have been amazing to have taken my house to all those places, save money on rent and show people in other countries what the USA is up to on the sustainability levels of living. :) Would have been nice to have had my own house and furniture.. it is a pain to rent apartments and buy furniture then sell it and start over all over again every time.
Thank you so much Alanna! This is definitely a labor of love. We love the flexibility our tiny home on wheels. So far we've visited 27 states and travelled 25,000 miles. Sounds like you've been on some great trips! Love the way you are thinking about the tiny, mobile lifestyle.
How would you pay to have a house on wheels transported via an 18 wheel truck ?
Easier to buy a motor home. Then you can travel freely where ever you want.
I'm 13 and live in heart of Texas and I really wanna go to that high school to learn pluming, installation, and carpentry. Nice video by the way.
Thank you, and hope you get to! 😊
Hey Tox, Oh to be 13 again and know what I know now lol but that's another story. I just wanted to say the younger you start putting your best assets,interests and skills into planning financial flexibility and independence the more you can make better choices about everything from associates, the things and people you'd like to live, love or work for/with as well as how to make our planet an even better place because your here and trying to do more than just survive. It's a lot I'm trying to say but there's a lot you'll need to prepare for, pacing yourself with goals, accomplishments and seemingly endless challenges, changes, but ultimately growth and sustainable longevity. May God bless, guide and protect you, be kind to others as well as yourself and with dedication, practice and patience you will know you are your best self. Peace
Pete Mavus Thank you and I have been taking interest in this stuff since I was 7 I loved learning And personally I think I'm prepared in a way
Tiny House Expedition aw tysm
If there is NO school YET.
Be the one to START IT.
I WANTED auto mechanics in high school for females. NOT just for male's. I fought 3 years for it. Always a NO❗ FINALLY. I went back to work at my old high school in SPECIAL EDUCATION.. My old teacher saw me and told me. He understood what I WANTED and NEEDED. The Auto CLASS was there for both. He fought for it. And apologized to me. MOST important. We have it
YOU BE THE ONE to FIGHT for IT❗
You will be GLAD and so will many more. LOVE HUGS PRAYERS from MICHIGAN. The YEARS were 1968/69-1971/72. Long before YOU were BORN. CHOW
The way education is supposed to be with experiential learning in context & with the ability to transform society through positive; practical applications! Fabulous!!
After watching different videos, from people building their own Tiny homes to the students at CCA Texas high school, I'm so completely taken with them! Having 4 children might hinder me from having one myself, but maybe later in life, it could be something I'd be able to do!! I live in Ohio and I would love to have my own Tiny house!! This is an awesome movement!!!
He reminds me of Mr. Rogers🥰. I agree that everywhere should accommodate tiny homes. So many of us cannot afford a standard home
Alexis & Christian - GREAT JOB WITH THIS MOVIE! Y'all RULE! This is great news for the tiny house community! I feel hope that I will be able to live in my home legally in the future! =)
Thank you very much guys! :)

Jesus that is amazing what they have provided for those kids. Wow. Crazy inspirational
Thank you so much for this documentary. Beautifully done! I am so grateful for all the hard work and sacrifice of the tiny house group to get this before a vote. You articulated the points so well. Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am a future tiny home dweller. You have made my life so much easier.
Excellent work young people so proud of you. They need to set aside some land and make Tiny Home Villages. I think it is great for young people just starting out and empty nesters.
This is an excellent program and the entire world should follow this method of teaching kids something that can actually help them succeed in life. I graduated from Aviation High School in NYC (AHSNYC) in 1987 and I am so grateful to God and the people at Aviation High. I was born in NYC in 1969 and was very poor. WI am first gen American and this mentality prevented us from collecting welfare but I had friends who did and they had a better life believe it or not. I was the first in my family to graduate college and I now hold a Master of Science degree and have taught at the College level. This would not have been possible without AHSNYC. As soon as I graduated I earned me FAA Airframe and Powerplant mechanic (A&P) that raised my income from the minimum wage of $3.35 hourly to over $15 an hour. This allowed me to go to college and without it I would have been a minimum wage baggage handler all of my life. Most people in the United States does not have the means to pay for a 4 year college even with student loans and most people do not get full scholarships. Now I regret not changing fields after High School bu that is another story and it certainly does not diminish my appreciation of AHSNYC. May God bless everyone at Aviation High School and may God continue to allow them to help people like myself get a head in life.
Hard fought, hard won, but your work here will open the doors to thousands of communities across the land where tiny homes can provide affordable, low impact solutions to a growing number of people and create THOUSANDS of local construction jobs. Breaking down the municipal barriers to tiny home construction will open up a new market to lenders, contractors and developers and help ease problems of overcrowding, homelessness and inequity that increasingly affect working and middle class residents. Great work.
This was very informative. My 19 year old who recently graduated is looking at starting a tiny home. He is going to Culinary school and really wants an affordable housing option. Exciting times.
Great work, so very informative. It's about time that the world recognizes the winds of change that tiny houses are bringing.
Thank you very much, Wes! :)
Fantastic! Thanks for this wonderful video/documentary! 😊🙏🏻
Wow....these kids are getting an excellent education....wish I could return back in time...and go to that school!
No sé
Thanks for your film! So glad to see progress toward more legal pathways to home ownership!! And barring legal, JUST DO IT ANYWAY!! I built my first tiny house in 1996, not legal, but was MY home.
This is a great documentary. I love that young people are learning all of these aspects of building.
Thank you very much Lynne!

Great job and thank you for doing this. I want to build my own tiny home village one day.
Congratulations to the people got involved in this process, tiny homes will change many people life. That is the future we want.

Thanks so much for making this! It's good to know what's going on legislation-wise. Tiny house, I'm coming for you.
You got this! ✊️✌️
Great stuff folks! Loved the coverage of the IRC and thanks to all involved.... I know this will go a long way towards furthering this necessary movement.
Thanks you so much!
So very helpful - I've forwarded to our town planners here in Canada and they are putting some kind of proposal together. ;-)
I understand the need for rules and laws and specifications submitted. I've always said, "A few have ruined things for the many." Trying to put the same requirements on these tiny houses comparable to big houses is not a common-sense approach.
Thank you all for doing this for us!
Excellent work on getting this passed and GREAT documentary! :)
Thank you very much!
This is great! Finally a high school that actually teaches life skills!
I think it is a great idea for anyone who wants to live in a small home. Cheaper to own. Good idea for veterans & homeless.
Right EXACTLY!! I agree 1,000!👍👍🎯💯💯💯👏👏💪🙏💖✌👊😇

Thank you for making this video!!
It would be nice if you were able to get funding for the land purchase and home build for disabled seniors. We have no financial resources to do these things. Our only options are homelessness or suicide. Suicide is becoming quite prevalent. But there seems to be no one who truly cares about this. Our deaths are simply another statistic.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR RESPONSE , HELP, SUPPORT AND ASSISTANCE.
Any brilliant insight is appreciate d!! This is very early stage of planning!
In preparation for my discussions with city officials in two northern Colorado cities about using Tiny Houses as ADU's, I went back and watched the portion of this video on Walsenburg (starts at 25:50). I couldn't tell from the pictures of what I thought were tiny houses in Walsenburg whether they were THOW's or built on site.
So I called Rick Dunn, Building Inspector for Walsenburg. He was most gracious in sharing information, the most surprising of which was that as of today there are NO tiny houses in Walsenburg. Furthermore, even though the Stadium View 33-house community is still shown on Sprout's website, Rick said Sprout found out the 4.6 acres is in the flood plain and have cancelled the project.
The city is disappointed of course, because they put a lot of effort into creating the new ordinances. They have inexpensive city lots available with all utilities. Walsenburg can still be a role model for other cities on how to make themselves tiny house friendly. But I just wanted to let anyone planning to do this, like myself, what the current situation is. I do think Rick Dunn would be a good reference for other city building officials.
Retirees looking for an inexpensive place to park your tiny home - think about Walsenburg. Located right off I25 in southern Colorado and close to the Rockies. Good luck!
Thank you for your documentation!
Great tiny homes, great channel. Thanks so much🤝☮️
So... should we be expecting a part 3? This just made me wish I could start today, but I'm not there yet, I'm looking forward to beginning my build soon more than ever! Thank you for all you do for the Tiny House Community!
We greatly appreciate that.
Tiny House Expedition thanks! all I can do is wait on my friend that is working on the computer files, and less rain! hopefully in that order! 🤣 I shared this two part video with my current roommate, who's not ready for me to move out yet, but he's at least thinking I'm not batty, well batty-ier about wanting to live tiny... haha
I have been planning for years. I cannot wait to live tiny. I live in Payson AZ. Homes are stupid expensive. What I look forward to is cleaning my home in an hour or less lol
