Pricing

A PREMIUM TINY HOUSE AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE

Tiny House Nation host Zach Giffin suggested the price of building a tiny home to be about $300 per square foot… and that was back in 2016.  Looking across the industry today, the average price per square foot is around $400. Today, the median price per square foot of a contractor built house in the U.S. is around $200. “The average cost per square foot is more because you’re consolidating everything into a small space,” says Giffin. “In construction so much of the costs are in the details.” And tiny homes require lots of little details to be fully functional. When you have 2,000 or more square feet at your disposal, wasted space isn’t as much of an issue.
 
With Modern Tiny Living, you can use our Quote-Builder tool to determine the exact price of your model, or pay $250 for us to work on a custom quote for you.  Below, we have tried to outline the factors that most impact price.

​What will affect my custom pricing?

3 MAIN FACTORS:

Size

Small (100-250 sq ft = 12’-20’ long)
Medium (250-300 sq ft = 22-26’ long)
Large (300-400 sq ft = 28-40 long)
 
Glitz & Glam

Bare Bones - Zero cosmetic upgrades or custom furniture, 
Base - See the description of our base models. The perfect balance between built-in furniture and affordable materials.
Luxury - From custom tile jobs, to concrete counters and loads of custom furniture.  See our upgraded models and custom builds for examples.

Guts

Bare Bones - Simple plumbing and wiring, and otherwise empty.
Base - See the base description of our models.
Loaded - Propane Package with in-floor heat, solar panels everywhere and hidden water tanks, etc
 
Due to the degree of customization with a tiny home, you can see how the prices vary so wildly.  Also, the square foot price is typically much higher because all of what makes a traditional home expensive is still included, just squeezed into a smaller footprint.

That being said, hopefully these very rough estimates help you get a realistic idea of what to expect your custom tiny home to cost:

$250/sq ft Seldom
$300/sq ft Below Average
$350/sq fl Average
$400/sq ft Above Average
$500/sq ft Seldom

For example, most 28’ units have one loft and come in around 300 sq. ft.  In that case, we would say the range is:
 
$350/sq ft x 300 sq ft = $105k (minimal)
$450/sq ft x 300 sq ft = $135k (beautiful, functional, amenitized)
$550/sq ft x 300 sq ft = $165k (absolutely, positively loaded!)
