Single Mom builds $30k Tiny House on Foundation ($60k w/land) + Yurt

Meet Lupe, a single mom who lives in a beautifully imperfect & permitted tiny house on foundation with her 9-year-old son Apollo. She built it mostly by herself over 4 years with help from loved ones. Originally, Lupe wanted to live in a yurt, but due to city rules, she pivoted to a building code-compliant tiny home. It cost $30k due to her resourcefulness and was built on family land on a rent-to-own basis (another $30k)--soon to be paid off! Her beloved tiny yurt is next door. It's used as a flex room for hanging out, working out, making art & a guest room. When Apollo becomes a teenager, he has the option to use it as a bedroom. Becoming a first-time homeowner means a lot to Lupe after experiencing poverty as a kid. She's made her 1st-gen American immigrant mother very proud! 🏡 Check out more solo woman tiny house dwellers & DIYers here:    • All the Single Ladies! Solo Woman Tiny Hom...   👉Follow their yurt and tiny house life:   / tinyhouseyurtology   Please SUBSCRIBE for more tiny houses, DIY, design, community, simple living & alternative lifestyle, and documentaries. 🏡✨❤️ 👉CONNECT with us tiny nerds, Alexis & Christian, on our socials:   / tiny_house_expedition     / tinyhouseexpedition     / tiny_house_expedition   🤝 Brand Deals: [email protected] ✨Check out our website for tiny house resources: https://tinyhouseexpedition.com CREDITS: ❇️ produced, directed, shot & edited by Tiny House Expedition's Christian & Alexis ❇️ extra photos from the tiny homeowner,   / tinyhouseyurtology   Video Chapters: 0:00 - single mom & son tiny house 1:57 - tiny house on foundation exterior 2:50 - interior tour 9:11 - yurt dreams to permitting realities 10:03 - legal tiny house build 11:27 - tour cont'd 14:24 - upstairs bedrooms 16:15 - family project to solo build process 17:59 - 7 m / 24 ft yurt tour 19:29 - tiny house cost 20:15 - rent to own land cost 20:45 - first-time homeownership 21:53 - embrace quirky DIY homes 22:59 - hello from Tiny House Expedition #tinyhouse #tinyhousemovement #tinyhousebuild
