Tiny Home Shopping & Tour | Found The One..

[@kaileyjohnson6583]

If this is your forever home, please hire a landscape architect! It will help so much with not only resale value, but your own peace of mind. This is a big project! They can give you many different landscape designs and make it your dream! Also agree about the fence around the pool, it should be more see through & it would open up your yard immensely!

[@zzaaz100]

Designer here, I definitely think the court should be behind the pool instead of right in front of the house. I think some grass & plants with a patio and chairs would look a lot nicer. Also when the pool fence is see through you will still be able to see the court but it won’t be sooo in your face. Just my opinion. If you have the backyard layout i would totally be willing to to draw you a few designs ◡̈.

[@giseleb2059]

I'm not a designer but as soon as she mentioned that I said: "please don't :( ". i hope she sees your message!

[@ClaudiaThomas-s5y]

Does your town have certain restrictions for your property?

[@suemacalpine7006]

I really think it would be worth your while to hire a landscape architect to plot out your backyard. I know it would be expensive up front but could save regrets in the long run. Also, don’t forget that both the shop and tiny homes require some form of driveway access. That should definitely figure into your planning.

[@pennyferguson9839]

I kept saying that to myself with all their ideas! They need to have someone draw it out and then take it to the city to see if it is all allowed before starting a anything

[@nancyconca9892]

I agree with the 2 comments above 👆 👏🏻

[@Dovejep]

@@pennyferguson9839 Then there's the plumbing in the ground, the electricity and sewer..... lots of stuff to get permits for!

[@AsdamealDeals20off]

Why wouldn’t it be allowed if it’s private land I don’t understand America

[@tricyb7600]

​@AsdamealDeals20off nothing is private in America

[@annelyceimgrund6884]

We hired a landscape architect earlier in our marriage when we were scratching our heads over a difficult yard layout, and wow, am I glad we did!!! He had creative ideas we would *never* have thought of on our own. Lesson learned. Since then, we’ve hired a landscape architect every time we’ve moved in order to plan out each new yard; not just for immediate improvements, but also for projects we could consider gradually adding down the line. Please trust me on this. You want a professional’s eye, input, and architectural drawngs.

[@anonaymous3950]

Since Aaron knows he wants a big shop/garage, why not just build up and make an apartment or two above it.(possible 2 or 3 stories up) This way you are making use of the foundation already in existence from his shop. Or build more onto the side of it. You can noise proof so it would not bother those living above. Don't go to small or you may regret that. Jamie for one has a lot of things of her own already. It would definitely need a small kitchen and bathroom to be a viable 'single' person living space. Another plus doing this is you all could share a water heater and possibly furnace/ac unit. As well as the sewer and water resources. Good luck in your decisions. There is a tiny home show on tv if you can find it that would give you lots of good ideas. My opinion is not do the RV classified ones as they just don't last and really are cramped. Jaime would never leave. She is not capable probably of living without your help and guidance. Just a few of my thoughts.

[@pennyferguson9839]

Please hire a landscape architect and have them draw everything for you. Then you can slowly do your dreams and know what you are doing and they will know the laws in your area. Plus you won’t have regrets in the future says I wish we had put this here or there. They do it all the time and can give you more ideas that will look good and not just thrown together. You want a good flow to everything.

[@elainewilt3883]

RV’s don’t last forever (we’ve had many in our 40 years of RV ownership)and lots of repairs . Reselling a used RV is not profitable. Tiny homes are homes and last longer. They would give your lot an attractive looking little village vibe. Mixing tiny homes with RVs would look like a campground. The idea for the more permanent place for Jamie even attached to the house sounds great for her. The idea of a two story place with tiny apartments would definitely leave you more space would give you room for everything else you want on the land. I’m sure you’ll make the right decision for your family. I’m anxious to see it finished.

[@bonniem1865]

Hope they see this!

[@kathat2028]

Another thought is if you plan to eventually use these RVs for pregnant teens, they would probably struggle with not being able to stand in the bedroom area. The ceilings are too low and they'd need to crawl to the bed.

[@nikki878]

Hire a landscape architect!! Do it once and do it right. There is a ton of thought and planning that goes into everything you have on your wishlist.

[@PaisleyBlankenship]

Do it once a day do it right is a great statement

[@K.B.2771]

I think the ones to rent out to kids until they move out make sense to get the one max showed with the little porch. For Jamie I think something permanent like building a pool house where the pool gazebo is and build a small apartment above it. The 1st floor could have a bathroom for a pool restroom things like that and then Jamie has the entire upstairs. This would allow her more space for all her hobbies dvds puzzles etc.

[@lethiapage4767]

Yep Casita for Jamie for sure. She needs room to spread out her stuff...and she needs stability.

[@jacquelinewhite3762]

Break down the fence and put a see through one up!

[@LovinElvis247]

Just give me a dose of Tristian everyday, better that going to the doctor. Pure instant happiness! I love seeing Hallie so happy ❤️

[@denaporter2106]

I like the idea of tiny homes over a mixture of trailers and tiny homes. Keep in mine what the back yard will look like with a mixture of living arrangements. You want it to look uniform and neat not cluttered with all kinds of places to live. You have to look out on the little settlement daily. Several tiny homes landscaped woul look better than sticking a trailer in there.

[@gladys6643]

Yes!

[@sadielynnnn]

I think the fence around the pool should be something you can look through. Just so you can check it every so often and see people in it from a distance

[@Ya_boi_jasper]

I agree. Not even just like to see kids. Like to just have peace of mind that nothing is in there

[@giuseppinamarley4653]

They have said in the past, they want a see through fence

[@LeahNicoleMusicToday]

This, and they need to map out lines, eletric, etc in the yard before they dig to make sute they don't hit anything

[@Mamabear469-f7c]

It needs to be solid at that bottom so dirt doesn’t get in the pool..

[@aliciabellante6643]

They will get one of those

[@katie.britcher]

Also, landscaping around the tiny homes will help a TON to make them look not out of place. If you treat each tiny home like a big home and give it some greenery and do some pebble rock walkways, it could really make it look beautiful and finished.

[@alishab1853]

Don’t underestimate the value of a PROFESSIONAL landscaper.

[@Marielahdz92]

I think the basketball court should be in the back so it won’t be close to the house and/or windows. Remove the brick wall and attach a guest house ( for Jamie). The workshop can have two apartments on the second floor. That way your back yard will look put together in case you are looking to sell in the future.

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

The windows were my first thought when Crystal was talking about the basketball court. I'd put it at the back too.

[@ohshesayydee]

i would consider building a quadplex. Two on top, two on bottom to maximize space. The upstairs two could have small patios and the bottom two their own little backyard if wanted & possible. And this could still leave possible space for a Max's RV hook. To be honest getting renderings done of the backyard just to get of picture of your wants/options is probably a good idea along with landscape architect.

[@Kate-bc7nm]

For Max or anyone looking into campers: Please just remember that a lot of campers can be made cheaply. I sold my first home to buy a destination until I moved into my forever home. Trim falls off, mice love living in them, propane is costly and moves quick, water heaters aren’t large, you’ll need to pump out every day or two. Used just means those problems come faster if they aren’t there already. Look for moisture or leaks in slide outs. I’ll answer anything you need about camper life

[@Kate-bc7nm]

Edit: just heard Crystal ask if anyone has experience. lol. I do. I’m more than willing to help with what I know 🙋‍♀️ I weighed through all of the same things 2-4 years ago. Just remember, none of these are permanent nor will they last forever. You can def gut them and start over though! I agree with someone’s comment about the pool house for Jaime. Hers should be more permanent. They call it a mother in laws suite or a butlers house. I built one on my parents land. They’re both barndominiums. 800-900 sq ft and later I finished upstairs without permits for bedrooms. (Not recommending because you COULD get into trouble). Kids change their minds often, I know you know that well lol

[@jus.me.tanzks5834]

In my opinion the new campers are more cheaply built so it could be better to go with a used one There is still 20 year old campers around so you would think a ten year old camper could still have 5+ years in it. I’m not convinced that the new campers would last 20 years lol I got a used one and basically redid the entire inside which is good because if anything breaks I can fix it lol. but this summer I’ll need to put a new membrane on the roof and that is going to be expensive. I’d like to do it myself but idk if that’ll be an option lol I’ve seen new membrane and glue on marketplace for $500 twice so I would try to get that and not new from a website for 1k+ I paid to much for the camper up front but i think it’d be possible to find at least a 30 foot bunkhouse camper for 15k and spend 5k on repairs or remodeling, the bunkrooms can have so much potential for office or wash and dryer space lol. if that’s lived in for 3 years per month that comes out to $555. Plus i budget $150 a month for repairs and that’s still less then rent in my area or probably their area. And I hope that mine lasts longer than 3 years so it would just get cheaper per month.

[@jus.me.tanzks5834]

Mine has an instant hot water heater which only works properly on a garden hose or running water. It works great tho that way lol. The 12v pump acts weird with it and they added a larger fridge which is awesome and i added a cheap washer dryer combo which I’ll probably upgrade at some point but I didn’t want to spend 1k on one right away and like for max he wouldn’t have to add extra water lines for a washer and stuff right away. I also added an outdoor shower because I have a dog lol. We just had freezing temperatures and a 30 pound propane bottle lasted like 10 days but I had it set at 60 during the day because I work and 63 at night and sometimes I used a heated blanket. Around here propane is about $1 a pound But I also didn’t have time to build skirting for around it and some say that cuts your propane usage almost in half. But even if it’s $125 a month for a few months out of the years it’s still cheaper then renting lol

[@jus.me.tanzks5834]

And destination trailers are a more recent thing aren’t they? Like within the last 3 years. They’ve been interesting to look at but they are way overpriced in my opinion A camper can basically be the same thing for a third of the price or less and every trailer will have maintenance

[@beckyklepper315]

I have lived in an RV before, and the repairs/longevity financially don't always make sense. Tiny homes can be resold if you choose to, or.made to look like permanent, stick built structures. You can have the outside made to match your home, too.

[@angm6091]

I can't wait to see what you do with your backyard! If possible, please hire a landscaper to do a plan for you, that'd be so worth it !! The pathways, the lighting it's a lot to plan and then make it happen! There are so cute tiny houses out there and don't forget a little decks for them too !!

[@barbaraunderwood1762]

I think the tiny homes is the best. As each person gets married they r going to want to move somewhere within their spouses & start families. The tiny houses can be handed down to the siblings, if one moves out .

[@rethacharette7830]

I just purchased 2 tiny homes from Incredibe Tiny Homes. They have many choices to pick from. They are modular certified. They don't need a foundation so they can be moved when you need to. They also have tiny homes that can be pulled behind a vehicle. You can have them delivered to Arizona.

[@oiwrjejf]

They have such cute ones too, are they connected to sewage, water and electrical of a main house or do they have their own?

[@rethacharette7830]

@@oiwrjejf It would depend on your town requirements. We will have our own.

[@alegnadraw7504]

I think Max and Tristan had better ideas about what type of tiny homes would be best. The initial wood ones in the first part of this video were more like sheds where you keep gardening equipment, animals but not overly comfortable for humans. There are some great videos on KZbin showcasing people and their tiny homes.

[@jus.me.tanzks5834]

They can be used for humans but it takes a lot of money. The initial shed can be 20k for a 40 by 13 foot and then you’d spend another 20k probably more to make it a home Plumbing and electric and water hook ups would have cost 5k for me and then insulation if it’s spray foam is probably the same amount. Max said that 50k trailer was more expensive then the sheds but I doubt it actually would be once they start pricing stuff more But that particular brand of destination trailer doesn’t look like it’d hold up well long term The windows and porch are super cool but a used trailer seems sturdier and less then half the cost even if stuff needs repaired remodeled

[@beckyjones6956]

Max, you need to see about zoning laws, some mobile units are not allowed to lived on while built ones are on property.

[@Kista-Kool-Mom]

Having lived in 5th wheel for several years, I can tell you that it can be a lot more to think about then some can handle. For example, the septic. Do your own research but I've been told you don't leave the septic open or it clogs up the whole system. So you have to pay attention to when the tank gets full and empty it. Even with regular emptying, you have to do major cleaning to it from time to time. ALSO, can't use the regular toilet paper, which bothers some folks. You have to think of the septic as like a porta potty. For those wanting to travel, understand that you are always trying to find safe places to hook up and take care of your trailer. Again, you have to empty the septic tank and fill the water tank. Water tanks aren't big enough to just use water the way you do in a house. ALSO... hot water heaters are typically small, and you don't have a lot of hot water before having to allow the water to heat up again. Don't mean to scare anyone off the idea but these are things I wish I knew beforehand. So just be aware of the lifestyle you are getting into.

[@tammywaterhouse5800]

If you live in an RV you are very cold if it’s cold and very hot in when it’s hot outside . You don’t have room for anything , you have to move 5 things to get to something you need. The upkeep is expensive. That would be so hard on Jamie.

[@teresaingeneri9732]

You’re going to need building permits for the tiny homes. Before you can decide what to do with the recreational list you need to get info to see if you need a certain amount of yardage for each tiny home V plus C plumbing that may be needed. If you put in a court before the tiny homes you may have to dig up court. Our go around

[@cherareina8963]

Keep the area directly at the back of your house for an outdoor living area. A place to eat/ cookout and just sit and relax. Possibly add a fire pit. This would be a great place for the family to gather together as well as being an extended living space for the young adults in the tiny homes.

[@barbconn4373]

I would definitely take down the one cement wall. (Or all of it) Maybe put some sort of decorative see-through fencing. I’d also put the basketball court closer to the road and the tiny homes further away from the noise.

[@Anita1963.]

I wouldn’t put the basketball pitch next to the tiny homes, be so much noise while your trying to live your life, cannot believe how grown the kids are all independent and loving life ❤ x x

[@rachelm1812]

We lived in a portable building after Hurricane Rita. We chose window placement and electric outlets. It was rectangle with lofts on each end. Those lofts were kids bedrooms. Under one loft was the kitchen and bathroom. Under the other loft was two bedrooms. The middle was open and served as the living room and dining. It served us well! Once we were able to get a home we moved the portable building to our land and it’s now our camp. We salvaged what we could from the house to outfit the portable building-cabinets, countertops, toilet, sinks, tub, doors. Best memories. We had ladders mounted on the walls to get to the lofts.

[@TheAngelsMommie]

I think something more permanent is going to be better for Jamie. Does somebody who lived in an RV for a year and a half. And also I find it the RV with harder to keep cool

[@maysmith4906]

Yes I have friends and family and they are warm and find them cheaply build yet so expensive.

[@oiwrjejf]

This.

[@ednanelson1897]

I would love to see Halie demo the fence. I think a see through fence would be more advantageous. You would always be able to see when the kids are in the pool. I loved the home on wheels with the porch. It was so cute.😊

[@pernambuko27]

For Jamie I would buy the biggest tiny home on wheels you can get which is 399sqare feet. She will likely have this tiny home her whole life. The other kids will stay in it for a year or two. Think about the difference. I like the tiny homes from Recreational Resort Cottages but they are in Texas. They have a big youtube channel. You could get ideas there and the manufactorers could sell in other states as well.

[@girlfromsouth214]

Be sure to block the pool off ASAP after you demolish the fence. If a neighborhood child wonders onto your property, not having the pool properly fenced off could become a huge liability. Also, check the fine print on your homeowner's policy. It probably requires that the pool always be fenced in.

[@itsreallyreen]

a sports court right outside the door is odd. having your bbq/seating area would make more sense. look forward to the complete makeover 😊

[@SajR5520]

❤ I love all that you guys are planning on doing with the yard and house! You could also do a room for a hair salon! Since Savannah is going to school for that she could use the room with an external door or something as her studio. You guys all love getting your hair and nails done so itd be so much easier if you already had a hair salon chair and sink. No more laying on the counter or shower floor!!😂❤😊 lol

[@giseleb2059]

usually residential lands do not allow for commercial buildings (some lands do but they cost more) ofc there are some exceptions.

[@xiomseg]

So, maybe lower the height of the pool fence, so Crystal will be able to see and is a little closed! ;)

[@beckytomlinson4565]

Yes to Halie and whoever else wants to help demo the pool fence. I really like the RV with the porch too. So cute! I think Jamie would love it. Can't wait to see what you all decide.

[@VallyGirl60]

Regarding the tiny homes, I think something more permanent will be better insulated and wear better, especially for Jamie. Love the idea of a second floor apartment above the garage for Jamie, as long as local ordinances allow you to build two stories. I also second all the comments about camper living - the septic and other issues are a hassle! Great fun for part time/travel, but not as a permanent solution. As for the wall around the pool, whatever you do, wait until you have everything else done before dealing with the wall! As dry as it is here in Arizona, and with the wind, all you'll be doing is cleaning the dirt out of the pool while everything else is being done to the yard. I'm with Crysal, I hate dirt. I especially hate how many houses out here have just dirt for front or back yards. At the very least put down some rock or gravel if you're not going to have artificial turf or heaven forbid actual grass (waste of water). A landscaper or designer is the way to go to avoid costly mistakes. Can't wait to see your dreams come to life! Love your videos!

[@susanmcgregor6902]

@VallyGirl60 is their property one that does flood irrigation? I wonder how that would effect tiny house / rv campers ? Does the water get deep in those area when they do that ?

[@kellystanley5892]

That fence is blocking the dirt from getting in the pool.The wind will push it into the pool.Good luck❤

[@christinevr7698]

Good point… maybe take the existing wall down to 2-3 ft and then see-through pool fencing above- that should help.

[@carolmagdaleno7719]

If you have a lot of dirt around your house I would leave the fence around pool. Cause when the wind comes and the dust. That might be why they put that wall. I live in the high desert in California and the dust flies.

[@SandyEarl-h8c]

I like the first one Max and Jake looked at.With the stairs,its all done with everything they would need.The other tiny homes you first looked at,yes cost less.But by the time you get them all done inside might cost the same and alot of work.

[@amethystphoenix264]

I have looked a lot at the tiny homes. What is most suitable is a pull-behind camper. They offer so much versatility. Regarding Jamie, she might want to move out on her own, and if that were the case she could take her home with her. They are built and ready to be lived in. That would allow more time for other things in your yard and home. Making the fire pit and having the campers around would encourage more socializing. I like the campers as they offer more privacy with the bedroom and bathroom. Also, with Jamie liking to be organized with her clothing the larger closet space, laundry built-in, would be great for her.

[@sandyjay276]

Except it's not safe for her to be all on her own... as per the professionals who've worked with her. That's why she always has to be near them or have someone live with her.

[@aylarider2151]

I've lived in a camper for a while .... you have to have a place to hook your black and grey tank to and make sure you get a surge protector for whatever outlet you use to connect to the camper.... if it gets below freezing where you live, I recommend getting a heated hose to connect your water to the camper..

[@jalissamarie6627]

What you should do is fly your drone and get a full view shot of the backyard then you can do digital mock ups of different options for placement of your backyard builds. And see how it would look with everything together

[@jowhite4048]

I would like to suggest that you hire a professional landscaper that does hard and soft design work. They’ll work out where the pool, basketball court and tiny house and they’d know all the zoning etc. in the long run it’s a better idea. Then it won’t look like a trailer park 😊❤ but a beautiful home well thought out you won’t regret it and yes get rid of that fence and get a glass one

[@carolbabb4391]

I have been living in a 10'x27' RV trailer for 3 years. I love it!!! It can be moved easily, and RV parks have all hookups in which is very easy to do. RV parks have a lot of amenities, pools,pickle balls,and club houses for all types of gatherings.

[@bella.r3522]

As someone who lived in a caravan on my parents property for years as a teen i loved the fact i can take the caravan with me when i move out or just leave it at home and go back to it if i ever need to. My parents use it as a spare bedroom when people stay now and i have moved out and had kids. The independence was amazing i cooked meals for myself mostly occasionally eating in the house with the family, i had people stay they would just walk past the side of the house on the way in, i learnt to clean it maintain the tyres/ rego. It was the best decision i ever made! I also stayed at home a lot longer than because of this ❤

[@tiggerhaines4307]

I love the one with the porch. I know Jamie would love that one. It has the washer,dryer,microwave, ice maker fridge and stove right there. It would be awesome to show her. Hugs💕💕

[@joandepies7133]

I'm not agreeing with the camper style. They never increase in value and Jaime most likely won't own land, nor drive so having this style is not financially sound for her. Stick with the tiny homes and consistency so your yard doesn't look like a campground.

[@karapickens4437]

I live in an RV, and I love it. I will say the one with the porch looks like it has A LOT of windows for Arizona, so just keep that in mind, since the home is sooooo thin it does get pretty toasty. But also it's a smaller space to cool.

[@pel.2779]

Also for the Basketball court ,that position in front of the fence and close to the door is a No when you look at long term value and beautification of the whole house. don't just do anything without getting the professionals/ advice from them to save money. I think you'll need to get a proper landscape Architect to draw out and measure the whole yard including giving measurements for the tiny homes, the garden, the shop, the sports court, the fence and pool, the bbq pit, the sitting in the sun/conversation pit too for summer and so much more you want to do.

[@clairewoodcock-tripp5030]

Wait did I miss something, what happened to Jakes foot? Can’t wait to see your yard finished ❤

[@debtesi916]

I would wait to take down the wall by the pool until after you have finished most of your backyard construction and landscaping. This may help keep all the dust and dirt out of the pool.

[@katiyanawalls5528]

Smart idea

[@LennetteAlldredge]

Or put the new fence immediately

[@seashellsprosperity8729]

1) Think of your main inspiration. What is the color of your home? Barn style home says "Hailee" Will you paint her house the same color? Two homes the same color then the other two vice versa? Are you redesigning the pool? Remember how bad the slide looks? Where are you placing the outdoor apparatice? Could you add swings underneath the cover near pool too? Outdoor play area, pool table etc, make it an indoor porch? Where do you want the noise to be? Will you put down concrete for bike and skating trail? Fake grass, gates separating house area with play area? Will dogs have a doghouse? Dog park? I would close off bottom porch with a clear class surrounding, ceiling fan and swing and garden oasis, or pool table. Enjoy decorating. You still have indoor and outdoor living. Pergula, picnic tables, living room, grill, outdoor kitchen? You didn't list what you wanted to do. That is the first work. Hire a landscaper for sure.

[@ruththompson7495]

Little houses are great, specially for a single person. When my sister Retired she brought a little house (to live on the family farm) and still loves it after five years. Make sure you check permits where you live to make sure what and how much can be on your property. It had to be on a wheel base because they were only allowed so many permanent structures. So this was not consider permanent. Good Luck!

[@smalltownMainer]

i just happen to watch a video the other day about those shed type places, they say due to the roof not being vented you want to use closed cell spray foam to prevent moisture problems, the rest of the place can have what ever you want.

[@eowynserenity3563]

With that amount of "dirt" in your yard, make sure the fence around the pool is solid... otherwise you will be struggling to keep the pool clean on windy days....

[@TexasbyStorm]

Basketball court right next to the fence though. Gonna be a lot of running to get the ball. Brodie is such a good looking kiddo. His smile is just beautiful.

[@JayStryker613]

What about tiny apartments attached to the garage going length wise across the back so it all one building. Garage to the left and apartments going to the right. That way you can either have bigger inside for apartment or more apartment's because your not wasting space in between. You could even have a little central laundry like actual apartment complex's if you wanted but everything with the tiny idea in mind.

[@JayStryker613]

Plus as kids move out later Crystal mentioned she wanted to help set up a place for expecting mothers it would be a better move then RV in that situation. RV don't last for ever as people are mentioning.

[@annlucier4037]

I think you should look at real, finished tiny homes. The idea is to use every space with a purpose still having essential of bathroom, kitchen, sleeping area & living area in a small space x Good luck

[@KirstyM100]

In Australia, we have to have a fence around anything dewper than a certain amount. So I'm very much in favor of gences around pools, but I also totally understand Crystal's desire for a see through fence.

[@HollyWolfStudios]

A quick search and citrus as well as pear trees grow well in arizona. Before you cover the entire space with some sort of artificial turf consider adding some living green to your outdoor space. A good landscaping plan can really enhance your life.

[@mznastee]

I think the one max showed with the porch would literally be so perfect!!

[@Chelsa525]

You should work with Yard Zen they’ll design your whole backyard for like $2000! You’ll tell them what you would like and they work up a rendering of what backyard could look like and even tell you what plants to use to make it look nice.

[@sabii_sabee]

i spent one summer in a tiny home on wheels and some months on one that was on a fondation lemme tell ya since arizona is warm place i doubt there will be any problems and it sounds pretty amazing for a starter up BUUT the tiny house on wheels in Northern European weather got moldy fast and storms were awful since it literally has very thin walls and also vent on the roof where in strong storm hail makes the rain come inside. Plumbing and electricity was also a struggle.. it is cute and for a moment cozy but in a long time there are more problems than comfy living ... in the tiny A type home with fondation tho its was very cute the inside was all wooden with cute fireplace but cold winters were a struggle cuz in the morning i hated to get up to heat up the place so badddd always missed school cuz it took so much time but at least it wasnt moldy and it had a good aura ... i think old school wooden interior is the best thing for special needs people cuz its the warmth feeling and smell the wood gives also perfect for creative people just like me cuz putting up paintings and attaching fairy lights and pictures didnt ruin the wall that much wood is flexible and just imagine green ivy streching down from the ceiling with fairy lights cute silk curtains and a cozy couch with warm blankets and fake fur carpet and drawings and pictures attached on the wall and having smol kitchen next to it with a bed on the loft just perfect!!! it really healed my mental state to be able to live in a place like that for 3 months... Just sharing my experience with tiny homes tho our environments are far from similar we are literally across the world me being in the north and yall in south. Hope ya get to find the perfect solution and also agree with halie u do need to break that pool wall down it is way too high and takes up so much space yall need either organic glass (since u have kids organic glass would be better and stronger than just regular glass) or wooden fence that is with a see through design for safety purposes wouldnt go for metal one since u gon have kids play basketball near there and they can easily get hurt by catching a ball and running into metal fence! ... if ya ever really need tips on landscaping lemme know ( i managed to get bachelors degree in environmental design and landscaping while watching you for yearsss so id be very glad to help ya )

Leave fence until you have the new fence set up with a pool being there you still have a couple still in elementary and a granddaughter to keep safe

[@PieCutie23]

Break down the fence. You can put up a see through one to protect the pool

Demo, great ideas , jungle cruise has officially started 🎉

Build the house of your dreams ( fireproof it) . Put a the guest house in the back for a tiny house, a real one with plumbing in the ground, and then the other ones can be self-contained trailers that can be movable. If you build a big garage or something like that, make it versatile so you can have like a multipurpose place something to that effect and get yourself your container put all your stuff in there . While you're doing your makeovers. My cousin has done this many times while she would buy a property, redo the whole property from the ground up and live in a trailer. Also little golf putting area. She has done quite well for herself always buying with CASH for her properties.

[@tammydialgray2835]

I'm just starting this video so I don't know if you already discussed it but what about a track for bike or other types of transport or walking weaved in the entire perimeter of the backyard? It would allow for a lot of freedom for the kids and your future grandkids.

[@tammydialgray2835]

The things to think about are which ones will have better insulation for keeping the A/C in. Which ones are going to hold up being used year round. How much sound insulation they will have. Etc. People in campgrounds have to be extra careful to keep their sounds down because there isn't much sound isolation in campers.

[@damienlee8079]

Omg the way Halie reacted to Aaron words like it was so funny lol 😂😂

[@susanreed9173]

I would not recommend any RV for living. They are not built for that. There is a ton of maintenance and repairs are very expensive, if you can even find someone to work on them. Definitely go with something that is made to be lived in. Cooling a RV would also be a huge struggle where you live! We lived in a 5th wheel for more than 15 years, while hubby worked on the road. Lovely for moving. Not lovely for living in full time.

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

My favourite was the RV that you wouldn't move much. I can totally see Jamie enjoying that.

[@DeniseSterling-g4w]

The Destination RV's and/or a bumper pull travel trailer would be perfect! Water-50amp Electric- Sewage hook up's would be easier to manage. Now I would encourage you to do your homework on this. There are some difference in how the home runs compared to a regular home. I live 13 weeks at a time in my RV and I do not leave the sewage valve open. I only open it to dump the tank. When flushing the toilet always make sure to flush with adequate water so a poop pyramid does not form. One last thing to consider is installing residential faucets, they are typically made better. I could go on with lots of advice on this subject. 🤣I can't wait to see the transformation of the yard!

[@margaretlees]

Get a landscape designer to help plan the backyard. I understand it might be expensive, but you will get the overall plan with Aaron shop, tiny homes, play are, new pool fence, etc. The tiny home that Max found (the one on wheeks) would be great as they can be moved if needed, and I think that hook up will be cheaper. It looked like there was plenty of room

[@danasalberg2279]

I lived in a fairly big and spacious 5th wheel in Texas when I first came here, but over time, you can run out of room for odds and ends. I didn't even have kids, and that happened. I ended up buying a house after a while .

[@gailadisney396]

Max, that first one was awesome. That's what I would think of when you say tiny homes. If you take down fence, maybe think of adding playground next to it and putting basketball/pickleball on other side of yard and big working garage beside it on that side. Then you could have a great sitting area off of your back door.

[@cindyschuman4814]

I’m excited to see the outside of your house painted and decorated!! Love watching your videos

[@UnBoxLifeWithLori]

Crazy Pieces Compound! Love this idea - can't wait to see all the Tiny Houses!

[@judyharder2344]

I don’t know how many tiny homes you are planning on. However, if it’s the trailer mobile type, they require you to put in some type of a septic system for water and waste.. They’re longer than a tiny home and you’d have to allow yourself exit from the backyard to pull them out if somebody wants to move away.. I’ve camped for over 40 years only in the summer because I’m from Wisconsin and many of the campers that people had they replaced him within a couple years. Everyone was always upgrading a few wanted smaller because their kids weren’t around anymore. You would have to keep the wheels covered during your heat or they dry out because of not being moved. Before you decide, go look at the tiny homes. Good luck to please everybody 🥰❤️

[@laineyluh9534]

My uncle lived in a ‘trailer’ (we call it a static caravan) home measuring 14 feet x 40feet. It was very well set out and bigger than they needed. Nice home. Also they put a little picket fence around it and a small flower garden to make it home.

[@heatherfishman226]

Some ppl use old semi truck containers for tiny homes. Sheds..also there are tiny homes used for sale already done up. ✔️ pole barns you can divide into four separate apartments

[@sireeshak1979]

Can't wait to see the finished tour of the tiny houses 😊❤

[@terriehumphries6028]

I wish I had some input, but I have no experience with tiny homes. I lived in a single wide trailer for a bit. One thing you need to ask about the camper type homes is the flooring. Partial board is used in trailers and campers and when that stuff gets soaked through it bubbles and then caves in.

[@gofishtx]

I lived in an RV for a couple of years and loved it. They are self contained and since on wheels they won't drive up your property tax. Check out some regular Travel Trailers or 5th Wheel trailers with slideouts and you can find lots of options and amenities.

[@nikkih639]

I love that blue original tiny home!! I also love the trailer with the porch!! I'm so excited for this adventure!!

[@AshleyA93]

The fence needs to be see through I agree with Crystal, I get the previous owners wanting privacy maybe when they built it but for kids I'd much rather be able to see them swimming.

[@hizgrase]

I’m pretty sure I’m pretty sure that it’s a law that you have to have a fence around your pool. I don’t think that you can tear that down and not put one back up immediately.

[@NorthQuincy712]

15:09 uh oh!! Chile, not Jake walking around in a walking boot. So, you’re telling me that all this time he got hurt building camping trailers and tiny homes haha just kidding 😂 But on a serious note, I’m glad that progress is finally coming along with the space. I can’t wait to see how everything looks, tiny homes and all. P.S. Has the WWE Smackdown match between Aaron and the bath tub happened yet??

[@erinmurnane6]

What happen to Jake’s foot?

[@Draqoni333]

[@dawnmuringer9286]

Home Depot,Amazon and many other places have tiny homes and you can finish most of the inside yourself after..power,and plumbing installation..can get this way or just the structure/ kit .

[@katie.britcher]

Definitely knock down the solid wall around the pool -- a plexiglass (not actual glass since your bball court will be so close to it) would be beautiful and give you safety while also peace of mind when you're back there, but not IN the pool area. Also, be thinking about the issues that might come from having the sport court so close to the house... balls flying at higher speeds, etc. Seems like doing it behind the pool would be best. You could expand the patio/outdoor living space next to the pool and do a beautiful outdoor kitchen instead. Would be great for those Beyond Crazy videos!

[@lalisy818]

Yeah agreed the one with the front porch all the same ones so the backyard looks good they can decorate them inside to their taste but outside should be same so it looks that is part of the house 🏠 order them asap and easy to install plumbing, electric, septic waste.

[@sienabakes]

Here I would do- if I was you, I would put the basketball court at the back so it's not too close the main house and it's looks better. I would also do foundation for the tiny homes, so it would add value to the property and easy to sell. I would build a garage attached to the main house on left, take down that fence with the driveway as well, then build 2 Apartments on top of it. Then purchase 4 tiny homes with 1 Bedrooms or studio apartment design, place them at the back next to the tennis court on the left side. Then move the inground trampoline closer to the main house and do a fire pitch area closer to the main house (facing your windows in the main house). Then replace the pool fence with glass pool fence and new slide for the pool. Paint your house light grey on the outside. Have the tiny houses delivered at least!

[@shannonamerson3682]

My daughter and her family live in an RV and love it. They purchased a used 2 room RV and have personalized it little by little. Very spacious and they can move it if they want too

[@3xxclusivee]

‼️ To utilize and maximize your space build an apartment above the shop and just build a smaller home in the backyard. Let’s be real most of the kids will move out and have their own home with their future families. Your home has so much space and with the apartment above the shop and the second tiny home in the backyard is more than enough ‼️

[@starr6976]

You have to remember that their are some going to college or staying home and there are some with disability and stuff

[@AShootingStar434]

I think they were thinking about doing 3- One for Jamie and then eventually will have the other 2 be for Evie and Aurora if they decide that’s what is best for them as they get older and are ready to “move out”

[@kimberlymartin4366]

"I want to be cool like Mr. Beast" 😂😂😂

[@Voyantberry345]

I'm getting a tiny home build soon, I'm excited we found it good to find a builder who builds them and designs for you as it meets the requirements here in Australia

[@Eleanamayberry]

0:49 Crystal says such funny things😂- “they’re putting in a basketball hoop” and “mortacycle”

[@cathyhellen5519]

I don't know if you saw this or not but they attributed the saving of some of the homes in California from the fire to the open metal fencing. Also in our state fencing is the law around a pool.

[@ItsAMbutyoutubechangedmyname]

When I heard tiny house I guess I never thought about prefab homes Tristan is to funny 😂
