Is Tiny Here to Stay in The Custom Home Building World?

Is Tiny Here to Stay in The Custom Home Building World?
You’ve heard of tiny houses, the insanely small homes perched upon trailers which allow the owners to live a life on the road. These have gained immense popularity over the last few years as people, young and old, opt for a smaller and less complicated life. For most people, choosing to live in a home smaller than 400 sq/ft is unreasonable, so tiny houses are out of the question.
However, the tiny house movement has opened doors to a movement of people who simply want to live small. So what are the benefits of small living? And is small the wave of the future in the custom home building world?

Less Maintenance
To put it simply, giant homes have more rooms to clean, more roof to repair, and more pipes to leak. For many families with young children, pets, and businesses having more space and more hassle is just fine. It’s easier to hire someone to come out and clean the rooms and repair the broken parts than it is to live in small confined spaces. But not everyone is happy to make that investment. One particular generation who are committed to living smaller is the millennials. This generation who graduated college in the midst of a financial recession is committed to minimalism in a way their parents weren't.

More Freedom To Travel
The expense alone of maintaining a large home can be restrictive for some families who want to live a more adventurous lifestyle. Traveling the world at the drop of a hat comes at a price, as does living in a very large home. As you consider starting a custom home building project, think first about the type of lifestyle you’d like to maintain. Is your travel money going to air condition several bedrooms you don’t use? Should you swap out the infinity pool for a garage large enough to house your prized RV? Maybe downsizing is the key to living the nomadic life that you’re craving. Either way, partnering with a custom home builder will leave you with exactly the size home that you want.

Fewer Expenses
If nothing else, the sheer expense of providing power, air conditioning, and furnishings for a large house is much greater than that of a small house. There may come a time where that expense is worth it for you, perhaps that time is even now. But if you regret spending extra money for extra space, building a small house may be just the solution. These savings will make living a free and luxurious lifestyle easier than ever.

The beauty of custom home building is that you can partner with our team to build the exact home that you and your family will love no matter the size. If living large seems to be getting in the way of the lifestyle you want, consider custom building a smaller home. And it’s important to note that living smaller doesn’t mean you have to give up the quality or the luxury that you desire. Call us today to learn more about how Empire can build you a luxurious custom home at the size of your choice.
