This report from BC Housing explores the tiny home typology and explores ways to regulate and legalize this built form within the context of BC.
The report provides sample cost estimates for building tiny homes, highlights opportunities (including build time and environmental impacts) and challenges (including building code and standard compliance) and discusses potential home warranty solutions.
The bulk of the resource features BC and North American case studies that delve into project details such as construction timelines, project financing, and lessons learned.
This report was compiled and crafted by the research and writing team of Anastasia Koutalianos, Writer and Co-founder BC Tiny House Collective; Christina Radvak, Project Manager at Light House; Joanne Sawatzky, Director of Green Building Services at Light House; and Sarah Jones, Project Coordinator at Light House.
