A man built a tiny home for his mom and then set up a company to help others build one too
In 2009, Dan Louche's mom told him her health was deteriorating due to mold growing in her home following damage caused by a storm.
Through his experience he started to pick up skills, and he eventually decided he wanted to help others build their own tiny houses, so in 2010 he founded"I thought maybe there's someone else who might have the same experience or a need to build their own," Dan Louche said.When Louche and his wife went to visit his mom at her tiny home, she was surprised by how livable it was and how it met all her needs.
"That gives you an introduction to the process," Louche said."It doesn't give you the floor plan of a house, but it gives you some of the knowledge that you would need to go off and do it."There's also a comprehensive material list with approximate prices for materials.
The longest it's ever taken Louche to build a tiny home is a year, which was when he first started and while he was also juggling full-time job, he said.The main customer base is people who don't have kids, or people just starting a family, Louche said. There aren't many families living in tiny houses due their size, he added. The cost is a big plus, but the challenge for people building tiny homes has been finding places to park them.
