Tiny home kit homes, and what their makers will not tell you

We found 18 tiny home kit homes sold in the United States. 10 publish a price, 1 publishes a design wind speed, and 1 publishes a snow load.

Average completeness across every field a buyer needs is 33 percent. 18 of the 18 will take an order today.

None of that tells you which one works on your land, because wind, snow, seismic and flood performance are site specific engineering rather than properties of a kit.

Ordered by how much each maker publishes, which is the only ordering we can defend without knowing your address. Never by price, and never by what anyone pays us.

Questions people ask about tiny home kit homes

How much does a tiny home kit home cost?

Of the 18 tiny home kits in the Index, 10 publish a price at all. Among those that do, the published number is almost always the kit alone: no foundation, no site work, no mechanical, electrical or plumbing, and no interior finishes. Treat any single figure as the start of the cost, not the cost.

Can you actually buy a tiny home kit home today?

18 of the 18 take an order today. The rest are renderings, waitlists, or companies we could not get a straight answer from.

Are tiny home kit homes hurricane rated?

No kit home of any type is, because "hurricane rated" has no legal definition in the United States. Just 1 of these 18 makers publishes a design wind speed, which is the nearest honest thing. That number describes what they engineer to, not what your lot requires. Your required design wind speed comes from your address.

What snow load can a tiny home kit home take?

Just 1 of these 18 publishes one. Snow load is set by your elevation and terrain, so the question is always whether a specific kit clears the requirement at a specific site.

Which tiny home kit home is the best one?

There is no best in the abstract, and anyone who gives you one is ranking marketing claims. A kit that is excellent on a dry Colorado hillside can be unbuildable on a coastal Florida lot. Put in your address and the list narrows itself.
