22. Money making or money saving?

If you don’t already have land to put your tiny home on, you’re either going to have to buy it or rent it. Some people build tiny homes to keep in their backyards and rent out on Airbnb. While that is good for some quick cash, that’s not exactly living the tiny house lifestyle. 

A growing trend is building tiny homes as a hobby and taking them to tiny home fairs hosted around the country. This is similar to the car shows auto enthusiasts frequent, where you peruse what others have brought and network with like-minded hobbyists. The idea behind building tiny dwellings movement, however, is to minimize your lifestyle and carbon footprint, not show off what you have.
