- Today we're gonna be looking at five tiny manufactured homes on Amazon. And as a bonus we're
gonna be taking a look at this one right here. So get your Internet ready 'cause it's time to do
a little Prime shopping. Let's get started. (soft electronic music) Before we jump online, did you know that tiny houses
started in the mid '80s, but they really didn't grow in popularity until the millennium, and of course, then it
became quite a craze. But most of the reason
that most people like tiny homes is because of the price. Just like this one on Amazon. Okay, so this is going
to be one of our tiniest tiny homes that we look at. It's called the Allwood Escape Cabin and it's $5,350 of course
with the free shipping. And it's only 113 square feet. Remember, these do not have installation. And the weight of this
cabin is 2,300 pounds. Let's take a look on the inside which is adorable 'cause I love this natural wood look. They have some really nice
pictures of the inside that are provided by other people that have gotten them off of Airbnb. But it is a very, very tiny cabin. I can't imagine spending
a long period of time living in one of these. I know lots of people do it, but not as many as people
probably really think. Here's a full floor
plan that they give you of this particular tiny home. So, the next tiny home we're looking at is probably the most modern
looking of all of them that we're gonna be looking at today. This one they're calling
a Studio Garden House. So let's take a look at it. It's $9,990 and of course
it has the free shipping. The description of this
particular home says, it's an ideal home office, it's a contemporary urban styling. Large windows allow
abundance of natural light, suitable for environments where the classic cabin
style does not fit. It has two ratings, so let's go ahead and click on those. It said it was a great value. "I would definitely change
things up a bit for bath and "small kitchen for guests
and possibly stretch ceiling "to eight feet." Oops, this one's a bad review. "I sold my 300K house just
to try out something new "and this wasn't worth it. "Now I need to buy my own house." Why would you sell a $300,000
house to live in a tiny house that doesn't have installation? That wasn't proper prior planning. And it's literally 200 square feet. Who helped them to make the decision? Okay, anyways, let's move one. (laughs) Alright, here's an interesting question that somebody asked, "Are they hurricane proof?" Meaning, are the kits hurricane proof. I don't even know of a house
that is hurricane proof, but here's how they answered it. "While these structures are
resistant to wind speeds, "technically they do not meet
the latest coastal Florida "wind and hurricane codes." So, that's something to know if you live on the Florida coastline, that it does not meet the hurricane codes. The roof pitch is two degrees and it supposedly is easy to assemble. And if you're anything like me and if you've ever been in IKEA, nothing is easy to assemble. (laughs) Another main reason why
people decide on tiny homes is they want to downsize their stuff. - That's all your house is, your house is just a place for your stuff. If you didn't have so much goddamn stuff, you wouldn't need a house. (audience laughing) you could just walk around all the time. That's all your house is is a pile of stuff with a cover on it. It seems that we all have a
a little bit too much stuff. So maybe this tiny home on
Amazon might work for you and less stuff. Okay, the next one we're
gonna be looking at is one that is under
40,000 but it doesn't have the free shipping. But it's still on Amazon. It's called the Jackson Tiny Home. This house is a four bedroom tiny home. So it's 275 square feet
with a 119 square feet for the front porch. The weight of it is 6,693 pounds, and that makes the shipping
cost for this $3,350 which is pretty high. But of course that keeps
it under the $40,000, but if you're expecting a free shipping, not on this one. But I wanted to show it, because it was super cute. Let me show you the
floor plan really quick. But it does have four full rooms and I did like the fact
that it had a little porch. That would be really cute for someone that's looking for that
tiny home life style. This is the loft, this is where people sleep. Did you know that there's
estimated 10,000 tiny homes throughout the United States. I thought that the number
was going to be higher. But year after year there's
about 700 tiny homes that are built by commercial builders. And there's another 700 that
are built by private residents that are trying to build them themselves. I thought it was an interesting fact. If you're thinking about
building one yourself you might be interested
in this one on Amazon. This is how much room it gives me. Next tiny manufactured home
we're gonna be looking at on Amazon is a a little bit
pricier than the couple of the other ones that we've looked at. It's called the Allwood Avalon Cabin Kit and it's 540 square feet. It does have four ratings, which gives it a four and a half stars. It doesn't have a floor plan here, it does seems that you
could live in this space a lot easier than you can
in some of these smaller tiny homes that we looked at. Here's a full blueprint of the house, it does look really nice and big. Each of the bedrooms looks like it has about 120 square feet. The living square footage
in the living room area is about 215 square feet. The kitchen is about 45 square feet. The bathroom's 40 square feet. And then the front porch
they're giving you about 176 square feet. This home does have a loft to it. They say you can put two beds in there, but I don't know about you, I hope you don't wanna be
around people that snore. 'Cause I certainly don't and I can't imagine sharing a room, a tiny room with another two people. Unless it's my kids, I can handle that. When they snore, they're cute. It's nice that they
provide some extra pictures that are not just cartoon pictures, drawing pictures. And it is adorable. I love the high ceilings on this. This is something I could live in for a long period of time. I don't know if I could
live my whole entire life in one of those things, but definitely this feels
much more like a home than a cramped space that you can only spend a few hours in. I think I'm just too claustrophobic. But that bathroom's adorable. Please note, 'cause I've
read some of these questions, the shower and the plumbing, and the electrical doesn't
come with this house. But it does come with free shipping. Still all these houses
come with the free shipping except for a couple. So, that the Allwood Avalon Cabin Kit, 540 square feet. You know, I'm thinking
this particular tiny home would make a perfect
YouTube studio for myself. I bet you're wondering how
much this particular one is. We're gonna find out in just a little bit, 'cause we have two more tiny
homes from Amazon to look at. Like this one. Alright, the next one
we're gonna be looking at is the Allwood Timberline. This house is 483 square feet and it's considered a cabin kit. It's $34,900 but it does
include the free shipping. I know I keep telling you that, but it is something to know. The inside floor area is 354 square feet, a loft is 129 square feet. It does have a snow load capacity which is something we
don't have to worry about here in Louisiana, but if you are worried about it, it says 40 pounds. The wind load capacity is
up to 120 miles per hour, and you can add factory
protection against termites, which is something that
we have a major problem here in Louisiana. They say there're two types
of homes in Louisiana, ones that have termites and ones that are gonna get them. That's what downstairs would look like and this is what the
upstairs with a loft in it looks like you can fit
two regular twin beds. Here's a full blueprint. This is the part I found
really interesting. "This model comes with
steel storm rods for "all four corners. "The rods hold planks of
each wall tightly together. "This can also be anchored to the ground." So, that's really good for
people that are thinking about definitely keeping these intact. All of these tiny homes
that we're looking at today are not ones that can
be rolled down the road. They are ones that
intended to stay in place. Ooh, one of the other
main reasons why people decide to live in a tiny home is because they're wanting to leave a smaller carbon footprint. And they're wanting to live off the grid. So let's go take a look
at this particular house on Amazon and see if we can put some solar panels on the roof. So I think this particular
tiny home will be perfect because of the slope of the roof and it'll be perfect for solar panels. This house is listed, not even listed... See, I'm talking like a real estate agent. This house is for sale, not even for sale. This is how much it costs, $19,990 and it's 259 square feet. It's called the Allwood Ranger Cabin Kit. And the main area is 259 square feet. It's milled from slow grown Nordic spruce. The roof area is 451
square feet and it says, oh look, it even says, ideal for solar panels. Just like I thought. And it says that they're
gonna need about 45 days. So I want you to look
at the amount of time that it takes them to ship it. So if we were to order this today, according to Amazon it would come in on January 13the through the 29th. So, you probably have like two months so if you decided to do this now it's gonna be a project for the future, don't expect it to show
up at your door next day, like most Amazon orders do. This one takes a little extra time. This part cracks me up. They have this little rendering here, and I wanna know where they found this weird looking family. Like the woman looks like
she's wearing a slip, the woman they drew on there. This is the weirdest
rendering I've ever seen. So this is inside floor
plan of the Allwood Ranger, it's 259 square feet on one side, the loft is 168 square feet. So that gives enough space to put in a, maybe even, a double bed, if it's pretty tight. This model does have
that tongue and groove with the steel rods that
gives it that extra security to hold into the ground. These are all the things that
it comes with in assembly, I hope it comes with really
awesome instructions. And again it has these
pictures that show you how you can go ahead and
have the hose plumbed. Okay, so that's the Allwood Ranger Cabin that's 255 square feet on Amazon. It's also perfect for solar panels and you can have it
delivered to your house in about a couple of months for you to put together by yourself. Remember, it doesn't come assembled. Okay, so that's all five
tiny manufactured homes that you can get from Amazon
for less than $50,000. But now that you've waited all this time you're probably wondering
how much this one is. If you remember a while back I did a video about the five myths
about manufactured homes and we met with Gary Millet. Well, he went ahead and let me show you this particular tiny home and it is $39,900, that's with setup and air conditioning. So sometimes Amazon doesn't
have the best deals. My name is Kristina Smallhorn, Your Real Estate Whisperer, and I tell you all this because you matter.
