    Great video! I'm so sick of the standard negative comments about nowhere to park it, there are plenty of ways if you have the will. My main piece of advice about buying raw land...ignore what the listing ad says about the zoning. 90% chance the listing is wrong! The lot I bought, the Realtor hadn't even seen it, she just took a random photo of trees off of the main road! Call the county assessor's office and give them the tax map id#, they will be happy to tell you the zoning and in layman's terms exactly what you can do with the property and steps to build etc. It can vary even with the same zoning code depending on exactly where it is located.
    It takes a few minutes and in my land search probably called 4 different county assessor's offices and they were all very nice and helpful!

    I LOVED this video. It makes my dream of buying land and building a tiny house for my daughter more real. I’m blessed to fall into the category of looking for my own land (or a tiny home community would work.) I just love tiny houses and believe they are such a wise investment for young people. Owning your own place instead of paying rent is a no brainer to me.

    We have a beautiful 10 acres we bought in the Ozark mountains up on a high ridge and we just started gardens and since we are retired we are looking for a tiny home dweller who might be looking for long term parking at a monthly rate’we have electric and water and beautiful trees. There is no zoning problems but there are high winds and several below freezing months so you must tie the tinyhome down here. We are not sure how to advertise for this site

I am wanting to leave my living situation and build a tiny home, but the biggest issue living in Illinois is where to park it. I have considered moving to Michigan which does have some areas that allow tiny homes. But this would put my about five hours away from my kids and grandbabies. I so much appreciate the information you shared here!!! It has given me some ideas for how this may work for my situation.

    Great info! All the details are so helpful. It seems your next step is to o$fer your service and amazing in depth knowledge on getting going with a tiny, from the very beginning to hanging curtains on the finished home. It seems someone in the tiny community did something like this but it was for the build, not all the "how tos" of each step. To have "handrails " for the duration of each huge step would be such a comfort. Learning of options available at every turn would be great, from such experienced people as you both are in this arena of life.

    I'm surprised u didn't mention "Tiny House Listings". Lists everything 4 Sale from Buses, Tiny Houses, RVs, u name it! It also now lists Land 4 Sale and Tiny House Parking for rent. He also makes occasional content for videos that are instructional in nature or showcase a particular Home 4 Sale. He may be competition for your channel, but it's also a helpful resource u can provide people. I sub to both your channels and don't think they're that similar in nature personally. Besides, I think there's room for everyone in this limited access/info arena! 😊
