Part #2 !!!!!! 600 Square Foot Tiny Home For $18,000 Yes It’s True….. Foundation Info!!!!

I built this 600 square feet ft.² tiny home for $18,000 pre-Covid in this video I’m going to take you step-by-step procedures on how you can build your tiny home and how I built the foundation for this home/cottage to be extremely structurally safe and will last 100 years or more. I’m also going to tell you how I lead the plumbing, electrical waterline and gas line along with cable in this tiny home. By building this home in the manner in which I did, it is extremely energy efficient with little cost during the summer months in winter months the exterior of this tiny home is made out of pole barn metal with a 40 year paint warranty. This is going to be the first video of a three series video of this entire build, the other two videos that I will be posting soon will include structural information, insulation, electrical, building materials, etc. in the third video is going to include room measurements and even some mistakes that I made. If you haven’t seen my first video, please go to my channel and view the backstory of why I built this tiny home. Thanks for watching god bless.

[@chrisgaskill7923]

I built the same thing 24x24 x 10' tall interior ceiling height . I am mortgage free . I then put a 12 x24 edition off back . 100 percent done by my hands !!!!!!

[@jeepmanking3577]

Awesome!!!! I think with this size of home, vaulted ceiling or higher like yours would be great. You should be proud of yourself and that has forever changed your future. Thanks for watching and your plan of your home!!!

[@naliale3346]

Hello, I love what you did. I am looking to build something like this for my mom. Can you tell us about the permitting and timeframe. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@jeepmanking3577]

The only permit that I had to get was the building permit through the county tax assessors office and it was free. The best thing that I could tell you to do is visit your tax assessors office usually at the courthouse and they should be able to give you all information regarding permits, etc.. I built this cottage myself within a 10 month period of working a full-time job and raising a family. I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to ask anymore. Thanks for watching!!

[@VinKohl]

To be fair, building codes and permits were implemented because of shady contractors who don't think twice about taking shortcuts just to save a couple of bucks and some time. Unfortunately the building industry attracts sleazy people. This build is fantastic, I have no doubt any city inspector would give you the approval once he saw the structural integrity you implemented. You clearly have building skills and knowledge beyond the average DIY'er...I look forward to the next chapter of this walkthrough, your work here is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing!

[@jeepmanking3577]

Thank you

[@rodm5830]

Buildings codes were implemented so a house could be safe enough and structurally sound enough for a mortgage company to make a loan on it and an insurance company could insure it. They have the most liability.

[@CustomWeldingandFab]

But yet permits and licenses still don’t protect the interested parties. Seems another easy way for them to separate us from our money.

[@retha1875]

​@rodm5830 it is a circular argument. Contractors have to Meet the codes or the other things do not happen. I work in catastrophic property claims, you wouldn't believe how many people get ripped off by the vulture roofing contractors that swarm the areas that are damaged.

[@rodm5830]

@@retha1875 there are sleazeballs in every industry including insurance. The building department and their codes were not in response to vulture contractors. They are to make the industry more uniform with better and safe building practices so building are more structurally sound for habitation.

Thanks for the videos! I like affordable housing and feel like people should have the freedom to have it. The percentage of people that live alone is growing all of the time and if you are able to cover your housing cheaper, you can have less income and have a better work/life balance. I really like your idea of having your utility area behind your washer/dryer, smart.

[@ralphwilloughby915]

I just bought a circa 1900 house on a 83×160 lot, village water and sewer for 9,900 dollars cash. To knock it down and rebuild, zoning says i have to build 1,000 square feet. The main part of my old dilapidated house is...surprise...20×30. I am going to tear off the junk additions, strip the main part of the house down to the studs, and "remodel" the "existing house" into basically what you have. Thats a workaround on the zoning for me. Then i have the 600 sqare feet house that i want. My arguement to the village is why to i have to build AND PAY TAXES ON more house than i want.

[@jeepmanking3577]

Good luck with your build and thanks for watching!!!! Let me know how it goes, it may help others here on my channel!!!

[@jerrym3261]

There are areas of town here that undergo gentrification. Developers buy houses in blighted areas, get money from the government, rehab the houses and sell them to people that want to live in a house they own that is not huge. There's lots of money to be made if you "know" the right people. Anyway, I was looking at buying a house they didn't want to rehab and partitioning off a tiny living space. They make that hard to do. I was putting in time and money just to get bad news from the listing agent when I seemed to be getting close. I finally came to the realization that I didn't want to live in an area with the high vandalism, theft and other crimes, lots of random shootings lately. Sounds like you have a much better situation going in your "village". Good luck, I hope you make it.

[@ronb6182]

I would put the 24 x 36 because if you use block for the foundation then 24 feet will come out even with 18 inch blocks 16 to be exact there will not be any partial blocks. If you choose 20 you would need 13 and one-third blocks. 21 would take 14 blocks. To figure in multiples of 18 inches you multiply the length times 12 then divide by 18. That will give you the block amount. 73

[@nextstep04]

Awesome! One thing I would add: small A frame roof over the front door. It will save the door from weather down the road and shade the porch from weather too.

Thank you for sharing. I want to build a small home on my property here in Oregon. It gets zoned as an ADU (a set of new zoning rules that's supposed to make it more affordable for people to put a second small unit on their property) However, permits to the city alone are over $30,000 Yes, over $30k before any construction costs. I also want to build it myself, however, they will not even issue a permit unless I have a contractor assigned to the project. So much for my opportunity to do this affordably :(

[@jerrym3261]

If I'm in the US, I want to live close to where I live now but, I want to live in a tiny house (14x20, stick built, on a basement) with a yard, garden and garage. There's no way a tiny house or building with a small living area inside passes code on a lot by itself. Although they said a couple of years ago planning and code enforcement was looking at ADUs, currently almost every piece of residential property is SFD (single family dwelling). I can't at any price build what I want and the small houses that are grandfathered in sell before you can find them. A few years ago, a couple of local movers and shakers started a project to show how affordable housing was possible (not a rental, no HOA fees). They bought a parcel of land and wanted to put 4 to 6 container houses on it. It was zoned residential with 6 units. Really quick they learned a single 8x40 container was too small to ever pass code so they went to stacking 2 containers. The county said they had to have a metallurgical engineer to plan and be on sight for the stacked containers. They got months in and lots of money when they figured the cost per unit to build was over $250,000 and rising. They hadn't even started any development on the lot. My opinion is, the system has people from real estate and construction backgrounds controlling what gets built and affordable housing takes money out of their pocket. I know people that are hiding their tiny space either in rural areas or inside a commercial building they own but, sometimes they get caught. I'm thinking expat may be the option for me. There are a lot of places you have the freedom to live the way you want.

That law is to keep people from building their own homes, and it was passed with lobbyists from big homebuilders. Most laws like that are passed to keep the big guys in business and keep others out.

First off ,kudos to you for helping Mom out with elderly living. First thing I noticed is,should place an awning over front door. Maybe a striking black an white ( striped sun proof ) would be attractive and save from rain out the door.

[@jeepmanking3577]

If you watch part 3 and 4 I do talk about the front porch and why I didn’t complete it. I am going to build a small covering over the porch either this fall or next spring!!! Thanks for watching…

[@ShaneMCampbell]

Love the content on this build! Excellent detail (foundation anchors, the specifics of running the drains underneath, etc.). Not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet, but I’m 95% sure you can flip the hinges and handles on that fridge very easily. Works on dryer doors as well. The basic appliance has symmetrical holes and anchors. Just remove the screws/bolt, flip everything, and make that $50 fridge a welcome addition for as many years as it will last you!

Thank you and yes you and others informed me of the door handle swap, I am going to do a video of the swap on my channel. Others have helped me so now I pass onto others!!!! Thanks for watching and God Bless!!!!

[@jeepmanking3577]

The wall studs sit right on the edge of the slab on all four sides. Thanks for watching!!!

Missed A/C … window ? maybe not on 100A main. Just fantastic product and advice worth serious money!! Thank you very much!

[@jeepmanking3577]

Ac is 120 volt 6000 btu no problem on 100 amp service, was going to go with mini split but wanted to keep cost down. This little ac unit cools this cottage great. Thanks

[@jerrym3261]

@@jeepmanking3577 I'm seeing a lot of people now that are saying mini splits aren't always all that great. If you're in a situation where you need the air supplied other than from an outside wall or you need to be concerned with the security risks of having a ac unit in a window, they solve problems. Other times what you have costs less to buy and to run.

It's beautiful. Just needs a portico on the front

@@jeepmanking3577 I see it . Sir . I build my own house very similar like your floor plan. And I was so busy and worried that I forgot the S trap in the shower , front and back porch. nothing fancy. But thanks God I finished it . 1500 sq F . greetings from north Texas. Jeep ain’t a brand is an ATTITUDE. Keep jeeping.

Thank you and I’m glad to help!!! Thanks for watching!!!

Enjoyed this, Thx. In my experience designing house plans, the entry door would work better plan-wise, in the middle (side) of the rectangle. I know it might seem like an odd place, but it zones the floor plan better so you don’t have to walk through the living room to get to the back room(s). Also would be great to put a little porch over the entry door. But anyway, overall this is very cool. Cheers.

[@jeepmanking3577]

Great info, this fall or next spring I am going to build a small covered porch over the deck and door.. thanks for your info and just may help others build their tiny home!!! Thanks for watching!!!!!

[@jerrym3261]

@@jeepmanking3577 I like where the door enters the living area, you wouldn't put it on the kitchen wall and you can see the door when seated in the living area. I'd argue that house design for 1 or 2 person households doesn't have to follow the same rules as houses where you might disturb other people by walking through.
