Frequently Asked Questions About Tiny Homes in Rhode Island
How much does a tiny house for sale in Rhode Island cost?
Tiny homes in Rhode Island cost between $155 and $500 per square foot. This is based on the cost of the tiny home model (purchased from an out-of-state builder like the ones listed above) plus light site work (clearing an area, preparing a flat gravel pad, and preparing utility connections).
What affordable housing options exist in Rhode Island aside from joining the tiny house movement?
If you're interested in the tiny house movement for its unique living spaces at a reasonable price, kit homes might be worth considering. One potential company for your project is Studio Shed. Studio Shed designs and sells small square footage home and ADU kits that range in size up to 1,000 square feet. Buyers are able to modify elements of the design and can even preview and customize models on their website and receive cost estimates on the spot.
If you want a tiny house to combat Rhode Island's high housing costs, a manufactured home might be another option to consider. Despite the fact that manufactured homes are slightly different from other types of houses in that they frequently do not qualify for the same types of financing and their value does not increase in the same manner over time, they are still an affordable alternative to tiny homes. Buyers in Rhode Island might want to consider Skyline Homes, Champion Home Builders, and Clayton Homes. All of which provide services to residents in Rhode Island.
If you are a tiny home builder that serves buyers in Rhode Island or, if you have worked with a company that is not included on our list, we'd love to hear from you.
