Read on for My Modern Met’s exclusive interview.
In the beginning, I toyed with the idea of converting a van and simply traveling the country.
You are clearly very financially savvy.
Is that something that has always been instilled in you?
Where did you get your financial prowess?
It was later explained to me that I was added as an authorized user on the credit card.
What was the most difficult part of the process in terms of getting the home up and running?
Ugh, the backyard tiny house build experience came with tons of peaks and valleysespecially during COVID.
But there is so much that needs to happen prior to any shovel hitting the ground.
What has been the best and worst thing about living in a tiny home?
The best thing about living in a tiny home has got to be never truly misplacing anything.
When you’re limited on space in terms of living arrangements, everything has a place.
So it’s nice knowing exactly where all of my things are at any given moment.
It’s all about balance.
What’s the best and worst thing about being a landlord?
Any landlord will tell you that landlord life is certainly not for the weak.
In this market, there are so many people struggling to keep a roof over their heads.
So positioning myself as a part of the solution and providing adequate housing keeps me in this game.
The worst part of being a landlord might have to be the responsibility of it all.
Everything falls on you as the home- or business owner.
How has this move changed your life, both financially and from a personal perspective?
It’s also provided a hefty amount of security for myself and even my family.
How long do you envision staying in the tiny home?
My biggest advice for young, prospective homebuyers is to start where you are.
Don’t focus on trying to acquire 10 doors in the beginning.
From there, you have the mental clarityand financial meansto take a bigger next step.
I’d also add that it’s important to understand your first home is likely not your forever home.
So weigh your risks, but don’t overthink it.
With real estate, you never lose.
You either win, or you learn.
What do you hope that others can learn from your story?
