Frequently asked questions about Tiny Homes

The Tiny House movement started in the US before gaining popularity in Britain.

What is a tiny house?

Tiny houses are small, fully equipped living spaces designed to help you live a more sustainable, off-grid lifestyle. Although they vary in size and shape, small homes typically have a capacity between 150 and 500 square feet, are made of durable materials, and are easier (and cheaper) to maintain than traditional brick homes.

Are tiny houses legal in Britain?

As long as the small house does not exceed 19.8 x 6.7 meters, it is defined as a caravan in UK law. That is why tiny houses are classified as legal additional living space.

Can you get a mortgage for a tiny house?

The small size and relatively low cost of small homes means that they generally do not qualify for a mortgage. However, there are plenty of options for taking out a loan to finance your dreams of the perfect, portable home.

And the average down payment for a first-time buyer tripled from five per cent of the property price in 1989 to 15 per cent in 2019, research from the Resolution Foundation found.

This means buyers will have to save for much longer and use a greater percentage of their income to get onto the property ladder.

Recent research from property site Zoopla found that 42 per cent of adults under 40 who don’t yet own a home have given up due to the astronomical costs of buying a home.

This included 38 percent of people earning more than £60,000 (almost double the average salary for the UK).
