In a housing crisis, where the cost of living is high and affordable accommodation is scarce, alternative housing options such as tiny homes, manufactured homes, and granny flats are gaining significant interest. These smaller housing products offer viable solutions for both landlords and renters, yet they are often surrounded by misunderstandings.
Tiny homes appeal to those looking for minimalistic living and lower expenses. Manufactured homes, constructed off site and then transported to site, offer an affordable alternative to traditional housing. Granny flats, known in planning terms as secondary dwellings, are built on the same lot as a primary dwelling, providing an excellent option for rental income.
Despite their benefits, these housing options are sometimes misunderstood. Concerns about zoning, building codes, and the quality of construction often deter people from exploring these alternatives. However, with proper knowledge and planning, these smaller housing products can meet the needs of many seeking affordable living.
