Tiny Houses
The advantages of having a tiny house are going greener and the cost of living is less. The disadvantages of living in these houses include lack of space and finding a lot or space that will allow the house. The cost of a tiny house ranges from $6,884 to $59,884. The company that sells the specific houses in the article is Tiny living by 84 Lumber. I think I could live in a tiny house for like a month and then I'd get tired of the small space. I don't think I'd last because I really need my space. I definitely could not live in a tiny house with anyone except for myself. For long term housing I'd like to stick with a normal sized living space. Although, I do think that tiny houses are great for people who don't want to spend as much money and they are great for the environment because they use less.
