This makes so much sense. Tiny homes are getting so expensive, and the luxury takes away from the adventure as far as I'm concerned. Being able to do it economically brings out all sorts of creativity! Thanks for the tour!
ITH are kinda unique, they started very small an niche but then blossomed into one of the biggest Tiny House builders there is, the reason for that is quality and price. They do actually give a shit about their customers, 1 vid i saw years ago, a Lady from Chicago bought a Tiny Home and had a small crash on the way home. They went out to her, bought everything back, fixed all the things that needed fixing and then Took her home safely, basically made sure everything was ok and escorted her home, all for Free. That sort of care is rare these days as we all know, they didn't have to do that, she had already paid and was on her way home with her new house but still they helped her. Damm good company ethic, make sure the customer is happy and taken care of.
Randy really is doing the Lord's work by helping people get a home they can afford and are proud to own! I really admire what Randy and his crew are doing!
Jenna, thanks for sharing this! I’ve been living in my 8 x 16 I-box for about 5 months now and love it! I’ve managed to add all of the modern conveniences like a washing machine and a dishwasher and used magnets and magnetic shelves everywhere on the metal walls. It’s a great, well thought out design and can be a great home for someone with a limited budget!
Ive been watching the direction Randy has been taking in building tiny homes and helping those in need of affordable housing and creating spots for tiny homes. This is verymuch needed. Love this video.
Having the lots is a big part of the tiny home living existences... So much red tape involved with codes etc, at least a part of that is resolved by owning the land outright, is it perhaps it can be considered "private property", so therefore the subject of code this code that isn't applicable????
He has gone from charging a lot more and giving a lot less. Now for people with a lot of money to throw around. Quite different from when he started out.
@@kimberluna2226 Codes are on land. Arizona is the best. They allow you to opt out of building code for a ten by twenty foot living building. Handy people buy empty sheds and finish. However we are not all handy and need a finish off grid product.
I was excited to see Randy Jones' Incredible Tiny Homes showcased today❣️ This one is his tiniest homes, but he makes a home for every lifestyle & price range. He has communities of tiny homes where folks can park their homes & have like minded neighbors. I'm a fan of Incredible Tiny Homes, I guess y'all can tell.
I AGREE‼️ I can see Randy branching out across the US. He’s one of the most honest people in the business. I can say that, because I hear it from many of his customers and I’ve actually been watching him grow for years now. He builds SO many other kinds of Tiny homes too. I don’t believe anybody can beat his prices, for the quality of homes he sells. (I’m not exaggerating. I watch Tiny home builds from a lot of companies. He’s the best by far!
Jenna!! Thank you thank you thank you for supporting our ITH again and again. It was awesome that your camera guy is experiencing this . As always..an information quality video. You have to see the Luanne next. In the Forest at ITH.
Corington, in some states even that will mean nothing. I just read something today about someone in Michigan who had built a tiny house for their daughter and the State threaten to find both of them $1,000.00 per day totaling $2,000.00 per day until she moved out of it. Now they are trying to sell it. It was in his back yard. Owning property guarantees nothing when you live in a state that doesn’t share in one’s hope for the future.
@@TheONLYCorington - There are hundreds of tiny home communities where one can rent a lot, with ADU laws you can live in your tiny in a back yard, and if the home is ANSI Certified (like these), you can often place one in a mobile home park. You do NOT have to OWN land to live tiny.
Really great to hear a homeowners opinion about the Incred-i-box! This a great video because it actually justifies "everything" Randy Jones has been saying about the homes from the start! I never doubted what Randy was saying, but great to hear the actual homeowner giving us all the scoop on living in the Incred-i-box! 😊 Thank you!
@@mullet86 What do you mean, 'add wheels'? The I-Box is on wheels already, and built of steel panels filled with closed cell foam insulation, so they are far better insulated than any RV. He shows you all that, so I'm guessing you are commenting before watching the video. They are also ANSI certified, and qualify to park wherever RV's can.
Randy Jones is providing something that needs to be available everywhere! Affordable homes! Thanks for featuring it here. The more these become visible, the more municipal governments will get with the program and realize that people need to have homes they can afford to live in, and places to put them!
One can hope this happens. I live in an RV, in an RV park, as it is the easiest way I could come up with to live tiny within the city close to work. It is working well for me and I'm adapting the interior into a cute little home. But it would be so nice to have (affordable) options for tiny home living within the city limits.
@Suzanne Cranford Are you in Canada as well? It's funny how a certain segment of the population gets to lay down the rules for everybody else. I had a 522 sq ft house in the city that was absolutely adorable. When I moved to the country I had people wanting to buy it, but they had trouble getting a mortgage. Banks think only people with no money would choose to live in a small house (even though it was larger and much nicer than many condos)! And here they were saying on the radio yesterday that we are short MILLIONS of homes because we haven't been building enough since the 70s. The irony is that my 522 sq ft house was the house that city's big-ass mayor's parents had lived in when they got married! My how things change.
Been in my tiny house for 22 years off the grid in Hawaii. The large deck with a kitchen adds so much more. It was once a tiny office. I also raised it up one story.
I really see Randy's incred a boxes as a solution to homelessness. You are providing a safe warm place in the winter, cool in summer where they can sleep, wash, cook, and live a safe life with a key that really helps them feel safe. You can't rent a hotel room for a month for what would give them a lifetime of having something to call their own.
But what homeless person could afford $25,000 as someone in comments said the priced jumped up. Another person said they are up to $30,000 as of recently?
I am a hopeful future owner of one of Randy Jones’ tiny homes; as well as a long time subscriber… it was really awesome to see one of his “greenest” builds out in the wild!! ❤️❤️❤️
❤️ your explanation technique. Awesome tiny house. Looking at getting one for my backyard if I can get the permits. Nice for grandchildren in college and rental income later. Thanks for sharing your experience and for your great work all the time. Very useful info.
That is a homy tiny, all the essential are there. The big room is a living room/bedroom , you can still have a guest, there is enough seating in the chairs and bed and stool. There is a place to eat and a desk. I love how there is a storage loft over the bed, it is easy to access climbing on the bed. I would add some pot lights under the loft to provide some light to read in bed. The air fryer provides a small oven, you can cook a giant cookie and some brownies. And of course roast veggies and meat. An easy way to have a roof over your head.
I love the idea of these custom built homes. I hope one day to see tiny homes custom built and in communities for disabled, elderly, and homeless people. People who are disabled and/.or elderly are often poor, especially if they are unable to work. It's hard to find an affordable place to rent that are also accessible. Most apartments have stairs even in the lowest level, and no home or apartment is built with disabled people in mind. I'm disabled, so always looking for new, interesting, and affordable ideas that might work disabled people. We could create communities with single level tiny homes, who could share caregivers. There could be a community building if people want to eat together, socialize, movie nights, or whatever people might want, while still living in individual units (apartments, or small houses). We all saw the horrific conditions in care homes during COVID, and so many people hoped that would lead to change. We need to treat people who are disabled, elderly, and/or homeless as human beings instead of nuisances to be ignored. I think tiny home communities could be a solution for many problems where people lack housing or housing with care that doesn't cost the earth.
@Dain75 - Couldn’t agree more. I see these Tiny builds that are, almost always, homes that have loft sleeping quarters and know that would not work for me. I’m a ‘dis-abled’ ‘senior’ (I really dislike both those words) living in an apt. LOL…it’s a reduced rent building and the income cap is $59,000+/year. I have a Single for which I am grateful. The problem is the building is HUGE with the laundry on the opposite far corner, the mail boxes all the way around. The hallways have thick carpet, tons of fire doors…& the flooring that isn’t level (eq damage I’m guessing). Trying to just go get my mail or drop off my rent check takes forever and wears me out. I can’t do my own laundry because just getting me there is a deal, but I can’t bring clothes too. There are two elevators, the back one is closest to me so I got a key for my friend because there is no way for me to buzz her in at the back door. (God bless her.) And don’t get me started about the bathroom. Except for the wheelchair lift at the front door this building isn’t really accessible, but I have been able to pay the rent…By the Grace of God. Having a whole Community of affordable accessible housing with amenities + services would a dream. Actually having whole Tiny Communities with stores, community centers, etc. for most people w/b groovy. As long as there are thing’s available that w/b in normal communities.
Thierry are some communities like that already out there, and from the sizes shapes, they accomodate families, homeless, disabiled. They have a community center for pot luck dinners. A laundry rm. for singles. They have community vegetable and flower gardens. They are overseen by people from the individuals who live there. If rules are not being followed, then they can be asked to leave. No one owns the home they are in. They are rented and usually paid from social security. For the homeless, having an address now allows them to get benefits. Most are on the west coast.
So much agree with you.... We just need functional design..so much of what's built currently is non functional for elderly, disabled , seniors, we want to still be a part of the community and we have lots to still offer..... Keep praying that there will be tiny home communities opening up for us, we are being priced out so badly here in Phoenix .. look everyday...we need to band together speak as 1, to get zoning & codes changed to accommodate our needs, don't kick your mother, father ,auntie, uncle, G ma or G pa to the curb .......
@kimberluna2226 Don't give up the fight. I am trying to get pictures and copies of the structure of different types of communities together so that Mass. will consider how much more cost-effective these would be than what they are doing, and you leave people with their self-esteem and dignity.
@@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer I can so relate to buildings that say the are accessible, but do the absolute minimum to get the designation. We need people who are actually disabled making the regulations for disabled housing. I went to a store that said it was accessible and there was a huge concrete step up into the store. When my friend asked they said, "oh we just help manual wheelchairs up." Are you kidding me?? For one, I'm in a power chair, not every disabled person is the one we always see on tv, the person who is paralyzed from the waist down, but has a super strong upper body, and uses a lightweight chair to get around, because they can easily push themselves. There are people in motorized scooters and wheelchairs, there are people who can walk, but can't do stairs, and the list goes on, everyone is different. There are rules and laws for a reason (not that they go nearly far enough). Plus all the older buildings that can't afford to make themselves accessible (the city should be helping with that). All new housing; houses, condos, apartments, and all houses, and commercial buildings should be accessible. I can't visit any friends or family because I can't get into their house. It would be so easy to design disabled accommodations that looked nice, and were functional, but no, that might cost money. You'd have to hire an architect instead of using the same home designs to build the same houses in the same neighbourhoods over and over and over. Can't we use a bit of imagination when building houses? That's one reason I like when people actually build their own home. It is unique, no cookie cutter housing. Unfortunately, that is only available to the rich; beauty, freedom, the ability to adapt change, and to afford being disabled among a myriad of other things you can't get with money and power. People shouldn't have to be rich to have a home, food, clothing, and a little bit of beauty. Disabled people should not live on the street ever, there never should be or needs to be a lack of affordable, accessible housing. Our society has failed so many people, and it is failing more of them everyday. We have the money to do it, but we'd rather cut taxes for the rich, let them get away with breaking every law because they can afford the fines.
Thank you so much for the tour Matthew. My ideal tiny home for travel is 26 feet. With my creature comforts, I know I can keep it under 3.5 tonnes (7,700 lb). Especially considering I now have a box truck to tow it, and will be used as an excess storage unit. I'm going to our Tiny Home Expo on June 9th in Australia, and am super excited to explore, get the visual and immersive experience, and make contact with builders, etc, to get the ball rolling on my first tiny home. JENNA, I'd like to thank you personally, as well as a few other channels, for your wicked cool channel. Through you and others, I have got a design that hopefully a builder can make into a reality. The rules here in Australia are a bit different, but just as many legal hoops to jump through. I can finally leave Cairns with confidence and get the career I have wanted for 13 yrs, cos I can take my home with me. Love you loads chicky, Veronica 🌻💜🌻
The profile of this tiny house is similar to ours (98 sq ft on a single-axle frame that was formerly a Bantam Flyer). We slanted our roof for water collection though aerodynamics would have been helped by it were we taking it on the road. It was originally built to be a camper but we have ended up living in it full-time while we build our forever home (408 sq ft cottage) on land we purchased last September. We completed our tiny house (named "The Antares" because it is red and my husband is an amateur astronomer with a telescope filter business) in 2020 and it ended up costing us US$15K (we did everything ourselves). It is totally off-grid.
Jenna-Great so far-I lost the visual at about 5:00 and did not regain it. Audio only. I don’t know what happened, but it was disappointing to miss over half the fun tour. Hope you are well; I’m looking forward to your next adventure!
This would make an excellent portable vacation cottage for mild weather use. Park it on a vacation property that has an outdoor water faucet/water well/solar well pump, a stand-alone hut with shower and flush toilet connected to septic system and solar water heater and a separate screened structure that has a propane outdoor kitchen and space for a picnic table. Or you could spend about $100 K for a rural house lot, driveway, septic and a conventional, used mobile home connected to the power grid and municipal water for all-season living.
Love ur tiny home! I would love to have one someday!! I would like to have a small lot towards a wooded area to put it on. This is something I'm going to keeper focused on in the future. Ty for tiny home channel!! I love it!!
Hi Matt, nice seeing you again! It was nice seeing a small clip of our home as well! True that ITH has homes and DYI homes starting as low as 15k to over 100k like ours. A price point for all. Stella looks just like oue Dulce', i'll have to send you a pic of her. Say hi to Jenna from us, Bill and Carmen. (Our home aired on 1/6/23).
I would so put my own personal touches in these homes. One for sure is figure out how to add color not just with paint but some cool peel and stick wallpaper as well. The bathroom would need a form of privacy perhaps a sliding door nothing fancy like a farm door. Perhaps add some kind of crown molding look too. And I’m sorry but if you’re going tiny make sure you’ve got at least a small stove with an oven particularly to bake a small turkey, pot roast etc. And jazz it up with a cool color refrigerator freezer as well. The front room to me would be a nice pretty day bed nothing too foofoo and a small glider chair like from a nursery. And tie it all together with cool ass rugs and I’d be happy. On the outside again, add some wood elements and color. Perhaps a porch awning couple pieces of lawn furniture plants etc.
These are so fun. I’m just hoping these tiny homes have effective plumbing with running water for washing, bathing and toilet. A driveway would be nice too😄 I’m curious to see if communities can be made with these ideas and benefits in mind. Especially for singles like me.
Believe they have a full size shower in that tiny space you were right for being so small it really was pretty cozy. Don’t know if I could live in it full-time but I could probably spend a weekend getaway.
I'd love one of these. I'd have to take advantage of the free lot rent and see if I'd like to stay in Tennessee. It's a beautiful state, I have family there but I have a business where I live now, so it would be a big life change.
Love this! When I move, I'm going to look into this. I would like to know where he got that poncho from. 😍😍 I need it in my life. Exactly what I've been searching for. Thanks for sharing this and the fur-babies are precious.
You could get some small piece of raw land for a cheap price, buy an RV for a very cheap price as well, and convert it into a tiny house. Just an idea.
@Starlet Satori , that is a great idea, too. 👍 However, if an individual is looking to be debt free and save money, the best approach would be to buy everything cash. Buying things cash, saves a huge amount of money because there is no interest involved. As we all know, interest is what keeps everybody as a slave of the rat race, barely making it and in turn causing it to be almost impossible to be able to make any extra money or save and for many people to even ever being able own anything. The best part of buying things cash is that you actually own what you bought and don't have to worry about a bank coming to take things away from you, if for some unfortunate reason you ever were unable to continue making payments.
I watch Randy on his channel all the time. One of the homes he built was in a tornado in Iowa and it was not as damaged as the homes around the house. The second house that was another Randy Jones home that was in the tornado wound up in the river, and it floated and it was not severely damaged. that goes to say that his homes are very well built. These homes in the tornado were wood built.
Jenna I need a tiny home affordable that I can take care of my mom and follow my adult daughter with my fur babies! I promised her to always have “a safe place to land” so affordable tiny homes on wheels is harder to find now that tiny homes are popular.
Great little house for the money.. Can't beat pricce& quality. You have it fixed cute..I woul use loft to sleep though& have sitting area,small sofa,or sleeper sofa.😊 Love tbe outside as well!!❣🥰
I think what I'll do first is downside to 800 SQ ft or less. Right now I'm living in a 3-bedroom, 2 bath house. The last time I downsized I didn't do too good, but I want to. ✌️✌️
I wonder if having an elevator bed wouldn’t be a more efficient use of space? Have seen some THs which use this system. You can bring the bed down at night when you need it and put it back up during the day when not in use. It doesn’t have to be super high tech, have seen some folks se white a simple chain system which the use manually. Just a thought. ( Randy is a great guy btw).
This makes so much sense. Tiny homes are getting so expensive, and the luxury takes away from the adventure as far as I'm concerned. Being able to do it economically brings out all sorts of creativity! Thanks for the tour!

And don’t get me started about the bathroom. Except for the wheelchair lift at the front door this building isn’t really accessible, but I have been able to pay the rent…By the Grace of God.
Having a whole Community of affordable accessible housing with amenities + services would a dream.
Actually having whole Tiny Communities with stores, community centers, etc. for most people w/b groovy. As long as there are thing’s available that w/b in normal communities.
Thierry are some communities like that already out there, and from the sizes shapes, they accomodate families, homeless, disabiled. They have a community center for pot luck dinners. A laundry rm. for singles. They have community vegetable and flower gardens. They are overseen by people from the individuals who live there. If rules are not being followed, then they can be asked to leave. No one owns the home they are in. They are rented and usually paid from social security. For the homeless, having an address now allows them to get benefits. Most are on the west coast.
So much agree with you.... We just need functional design..so much of what's built currently is non functional for elderly, disabled , seniors, we want to still be a part of the community and we have lots to still offer..... Keep praying that there will be tiny home communities opening up for us, we are being priced out so badly here in Phoenix .. look everyday...we need to band together speak as 1, to get zoning & codes changed to accommodate our needs, don't kick your mother, father ,auntie, uncle, G ma or G pa to the curb .......
@kimberluna2226 Don't give up the fight. I am trying to get pictures and copies of the structure of different types of communities together so that Mass. will consider how much more cost-effective these would be than what they are doing, and you leave people with their self-esteem and dignity.
@@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer I can so relate to buildings that say the are accessible, but do the absolute minimum to get the designation. We need people who are actually disabled making the regulations for disabled housing. I went to a store that said it was accessible and there was a huge concrete step up into the store. When my friend asked they said, "oh we just help manual wheelchairs up." Are you kidding me?? For one, I'm in a power chair, not every disabled person is the one we always see on tv, the person who is paralyzed from the waist down, but has a super strong upper body, and uses a lightweight chair to get around, because they can easily push themselves. There are people in motorized scooters and wheelchairs, there are people who can walk, but can't do stairs, and the list goes on, everyone is different.
There are rules and laws for a reason (not that they go nearly far enough). Plus all the older buildings that can't afford to make themselves accessible (the city should be helping with that).
All new housing; houses, condos, apartments, and all houses, and commercial buildings should be accessible. I can't visit any friends or family because I can't get into their house. It would be so easy to design disabled accommodations that looked nice, and were functional, but no, that might cost money. You'd have to hire an architect instead of using the same home designs to build the same houses in the same neighbourhoods over and over and over. Can't we use a bit of imagination when building houses? That's one reason I like when people actually build their own home. It is unique, no cookie cutter housing. Unfortunately, that is only available to the rich; beauty, freedom, the ability to adapt change, and to afford being disabled among a myriad of other things you can't get with money and power.
People shouldn't have to be rich to have a home, food, clothing, and a little bit of beauty. Disabled people should not live on the street ever, there never should be or needs to be a lack of affordable, accessible housing. Our society has failed so many people, and it is failing more of them everyday.
We have the money to do it, but we'd rather cut taxes for the rich, let them get away with breaking every law because they can afford the fines.
I love ITH and Randy! My dream is to have an 8x20 incred-I-box off grid for a home base and travel in my van!
I'm purchasing one of these this summer. Can't wait.
Thank you so much for the tour Matthew. My ideal tiny home for travel is 26 feet. With my creature comforts, I know I can keep it under 3.5 tonnes (7,700 lb). Especially considering I now have a box truck to tow it, and will be used as an excess storage unit. I'm going to our Tiny Home Expo on June 9th in Australia, and am super excited to explore, get the visual and immersive experience, and make contact with builders, etc, to get the ball rolling on my first tiny home.
JENNA, I'd like to thank you personally, as well as a few other channels, for your wicked cool channel. Through you and others, I have got a design that hopefully a builder can make into a reality. The rules here in Australia are a bit different, but just as many legal hoops to jump through. I can finally leave Cairns with confidence and get the career I have wanted for 13 yrs, cos I can take my home with me. Love you loads chicky, Veronica 🌻💜🌻
Great tour! One item though, I'm pretty sure Randy puts 36"x36" showers in the Incred-I-Boxes.
I think he switched to the 36 x 36 when he started building with the new panels for the I Box, didn't he? 11:54
@@kellieskenandore6199 no, he's been using the 36x36 for a long time.
There is a lot of potential for this tiny house. Loved the rain catchment setup. I did find the current decor wasted space.
The profile of this tiny house is similar to ours (98 sq ft on a single-axle frame that was formerly a Bantam Flyer). We slanted our roof for water collection though aerodynamics would have been helped by it were we taking it on the road. It was originally built to be a camper but we have ended up living in it full-time while we build our forever home (408 sq ft cottage) on land we purchased last September. We completed our tiny house (named "The Antares" because it is red and my husband is an amateur astronomer with a telescope filter business) in 2020 and it ended up costing us US$15K (we did everything ourselves). It is totally off-grid.
Like your cover. You are wearing. I knew I recognized the Incredible Box… so cool an cost is great! DIY easy!
Jenna-Great so far-I lost the visual at about 5:00 and did not regain it. Audio only. I don’t know what happened, but it was disappointing to miss over half the fun tour.
Hope you are well; I’m looking forward to your next adventure!
Thanks for showing this incredible tiny home!
Really nice tiny house and great presentation!
This would make an excellent portable vacation cottage for mild weather use. Park it on a vacation property that has an outdoor water faucet/water well/solar well pump, a stand-alone hut with shower and flush toilet connected to septic system and solar water heater and a separate screened structure that has a propane outdoor kitchen and space for a picnic table.
Or you could spend about $100 K for a rural house lot, driveway, septic and a conventional, used mobile home connected to the power grid and municipal water for all-season living.
Love ur tiny home! I would love to have one someday!! I would like to have a small lot towards a wooded area to put it on. This is something I'm going to keeper focused on in the future. Ty for tiny home channel!! I love it!!
Wow I’m so amazed. I’m also building a very tiny 8x8 feet house now. Liked and subscribed too.
the off grid incred-i-box is great
Randy’s Incredible Tiny Homes are great!!
Awesome! Cozy yet so refined!
Great tiny house! Righteous Poncho!!
Enjoyed your presentation, you have such a pleasant, calming quality about you. Love the house it would be perfect for me.
Lovely and convenient build-out on one of Randy's Incred-i-box homes! ❤️
Great video! I did not know about the problem with getting cell phone signals. I think that the shower is bigger than 30 inches.
Yes, it's 36". I wonder if the wifi solution might be a repeater or range extender? Time to consult someone more knowledgeable than me.
Hi Matt, nice seeing you again! It was nice seeing a small clip of our home as well! True that ITH has homes and DYI homes starting as low as 15k to over 100k like ours. A price point for all.
Stella looks just like oue Dulce', i'll have to send you a pic of her. Say hi to Jenna from us, Bill and Carmen. (Our home aired on 1/6/23).
I would so put my own personal touches in these homes. One for sure is figure out how to add color not just with paint but some cool peel and stick wallpaper as well. The bathroom would need a form of privacy perhaps a sliding door nothing fancy like a farm door. Perhaps add some kind of crown molding look too. And I’m sorry but if you’re going tiny make sure you’ve got at least a small stove with an oven particularly to bake a small turkey, pot roast etc. And jazz it up with a cool color refrigerator freezer as well. The front room to me would be a nice pretty day bed nothing too foofoo and a small glider chair like from a nursery. And tie it all together with cool ass rugs and I’d be happy. On the outside again, add some wood elements and color. Perhaps a porch awning couple pieces of lawn furniture plants etc.
Incredible Tiny Homes is a great business to choose your tiny home from.
These are so fun. I’m just hoping these tiny homes have effective plumbing with running water for washing, bathing and toilet. A driveway would be nice too😄 I’m curious to see if communities can be made with these ideas and benefits in mind. Especially for singles like me.
Believe they have a full size shower in that tiny space you were right for being so small it really was pretty cozy. Don’t know if I could live in it full-time but I could probably spend a weekend getaway.
Love it. Tiny, cozy but beautiful
I'd love one of these. I'd have to take advantage of the free lot rent and see if I'd like to stay in Tennessee. It's a beautiful state, I have family there but I have a business where I live now, so it would be a big life change.
Stella is soooo adorable!
So beautiful 😍 less is more
Oh Tatiana. I Totally 💯 Agree with you ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Love this! When I move, I'm going to look into this.
I would like to know where he got that poncho from. 😍😍 I need it in my life. Exactly what I've been searching for.
Thanks for sharing this and the fur-babies are precious.
OK, so I'm not the only one thinking about that 🤔 poncho. 😃
Amazon
$24.99
Very interesting place and a super idea!
Thanks for a great video and a great review of a tiny home maybe a little too tiny for me but thanks for sharing it with us
Excellent review!
This is such a sweet home! 💛🌞😊
So fun and so cool. Love it!
😊😊❤❤❤ love everything that ITH (Randy and team)
Wow, that's cool. It could be mobile like a 5th wheel RV or put it down on some land with a foundation even. Sweet!
Beautiful and your fur babies are adorable 😻😻😻
Oh wow that's fantastic I've always wanted to live in one room house. And the promise is not bad just 25,000. Wow incredible all right
I really wish I could afford one of these with my kitty Kat Miss Olivia.
You could get some small piece of raw land for a cheap price, buy an RV for a very cheap price as well, and convert it into a tiny house. Just an idea.
Incredible Tiny Homes has financing.
@@starletsatori8933 I live on a fixed income
@Starlet Satori , that is a great idea, too. 👍 However, if an individual is looking to be debt free and save money, the best approach would be to buy everything cash. Buying things cash, saves a huge amount of money because there is no interest involved. As we all know, interest is what keeps everybody as a slave of the rat race, barely making it and in turn causing it to be almost impossible to be able to make any extra money or save and for many people to even ever being able own anything. The best part of buying things cash is that you actually own what you bought and don't have to worry about a bank coming to take things away from you, if for some unfortunate reason you ever were unable to continue making payments.
Perfect size... would love one or two on some land.
I watch Randy on his channel all the time. One of the homes he built was in a tornado in Iowa and it was not as damaged as the homes around the house. The second house that was another Randy Jones home that was in the tornado wound up in the river, and it floated and it was not severely damaged. that goes to say that his homes are very well built. These homes in the tornado were wood built.
Hi Jenna, could you add metric conversions on screen if the speaker is using imperial for future videos, please?
It's so small but I kind of want one. I wish I was able to buy one
Jenna I need a tiny home affordable that I can take care of my mom and follow my adult daughter with my fur babies! I promised her to always have “a safe place to land” so affordable tiny homes on wheels is harder to find now that tiny homes are popular.
Great options for the price!
Very cute space! And chihuahuas!
I think it’s really cute and comfortable for the price. God bless ❤
Great little house for the money.. Can't beat pricce& quality. You have it fixed cute..I woul use loft to sleep though& have sitting area,small sofa,or sleeper sofa.😊 Love tbe outside as well!!❣🥰
Aaaahhhh!!! Another video about Randy's incredibox!!! My dreaaam th.
I think what I'll do first is downside to 800 SQ ft or less. Right now I'm living in a 3-bedroom, 2 bath house. The last time I downsized I didn't do too good, but I want to. ✌️✌️
Great design!
Heyyy l Love Randy Jones, hes so fun to watch!🎉
The new panels are much better.
Yes, but that will also mean an increase in price for the Incredibox line. Once ITH starts to use the new panels, the price will no longer be $25k
@@associatedchiropractic4908 It’s $25k.
Shower is 36”, not 30”.
Thanks Jenna.
I wonder if having an elevator bed wouldn’t be a more efficient use of space? Have seen some THs which use this system. You can bring the bed down at night when you need it and put it back up during the day when not in use. It doesn’t have to be super high tech, have seen some folks se white a simple chain system which the use manually. Just a thought. ( Randy is a great guy btw).
But that’s why it’s affordable because you still have to put everything in it that you need.
Love ITH!!!😊🎉❤
Well worth the 20K - nice starter home
nice! do you have to pay in full in the beginning?
Man I adore this channel :-)
This was cool to see, and I love his poncho! Where did he get it and how can I get one? Cheers and thanks! :)
This tiny house 🏠 is perfect for me
What's with the staving dog at 3:48 time?
Yes. To just leave the rent market. ❤
Nice tiny home, but a bit too small for me. Best of luck to all of you.🙂
I love this! However, I live in North Texas - what about the tornadoes 🌪️?
Skip allll the way to 5:46 to see the inside of the house.
Really disappointed that the video was a straight out commercial for ITH.
I still don't know and would like to know how much for the fully off grid 8 × 20
