Do tiny houses have to have wheels?

• <div><p>No, tiny houses don’t have to have wheels. However, if you plan on traveling with your tiny house and want to use it as a transportation method, it’s a good idea to buy a tiny house with wheels or put wheels on one. If you plan to stay put and live full-time in your tiny house, wheels aren’t necessary.</p></div>

What style of house has a cupola?

• <div><p>As mentioned above, cupolas are popular for barns to keep hay dry and ventilate smelly air. However, they go back to the 8th century, and you’ll find them across different styles of architecture. For example, you might see them in the Greek Revival style. You can add a cupola to almost any style of house. </p></div>

Does building up or building out provide more ROI?

• <div><p>Since building up tends to provide useful bedrooms and other extra spaces without the need to do a lot of foundation work and cut into your yard, second stories tend to have better ROI—up to 65%—than other kinds of additions. But ROI will depend on the type of rooms you are planning and what your current house has. It’s not a very reliable way to judge the success or failure of a project, so consider other factors as well. </p></div>

What is the largest a tiny home can be and still be moved?

• <div><p>The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of <b>400 square feet.</b> However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.</p></div>
