MARKET WATCH: Tiny Homes gain traction from retirees

Hey tiny house family, we just wanted to share this fun, informative Market Watch article on the impact of the tiny house movement on retirees.

From Market Watch:

"The burgeoning tiny house and micro-apartment movements, which generally describe accommodations smaller than about 400 sq. ft., are sometimes seen as young person’s trends, with budget- and environmentally conscious millennials and Gen Xers seeking to slash living costs while lessening their environmental footprints. Some familiar with the industry, however, say they are increasingly of interest to older people at or nearing retirement age."

At Modern Tiny Living, we have already built dozens of tiny homes for retirees and millennials alike, and it really just goes to show that the tiny house movement serves a different purpose for everyone involved. As it relates to our older or retired customers, they are finding great solace in the financial and material downsizing that takes place when going tiny, so it is no wonder that over the past few years that a tiny house ​has truly entered the conversation for long term retirement living.
