Yvonne discovered this Tiny House on Wheels for sale in Kemah, Texas on craigslist and says: “You don’t see many tiny houses for sale in the Houston area. I saw this on Craigslist and thought your readers might be interested.” http://houston.craigslist.org/rvs/1638746361.html

18′ RV Park Model cottage house – $4999 cash! The price blows me away and I even question it, so if anyone is in the area and can check this out please do and comment below. I did a screen capture of the ad as craigslist eventually removes them. Here is the video on YouTube.

Yvonne just sent me the link to the $3,899 green house, you can check it out here.

Bill Kastrinos of Tortoise Shell Home is selling his 8′ x 24′ prototype. It includes a separate bedroom, living area, kitchen and bathroom with a built in shower. It is not completed on the inside but I’m still waiting for the details on what needs to be finished. So stay tuned for more information.

Bill is asking $20,000 finished, but would let it go for $15,000 unfinished. You can contact Bill by email at info@tortoiseshellhome.com or call 707-206-7581. Be sure and let him know you heard about it on the Tiny House Blog.

Okay everyone, don’t get used to multiple posts a day. One a day is my regular schedule, but I have been so backed up and been hit with time related news that I have felt I should post more than one post a day. Please keep the stories coming just be patient with me getting them all out

Chris just let me know about this affordable hand hewn log cabin he found on Craigslist and I thought I should get it up while it was still available. This one is also in New York. You can view the Craigslist link here. I am really impressed with Bills quality of work and want to get in touch with him and learn more about his work. So I may have a post on him at sometime in the future.

Scott Stuart contacted me about a fantastic sale he is offering on his “Mackydoo” tiny house. You can see the post on the Mackydoo here. Here is what Scott has to offer:

I would be willing to sell the tiny house as it is (dried in) if someone wanted to finish the interior,  if you think any of your readers would be interested in this you can let them know that for the next few days I will sell it for $2500 as it is,  picked up here or within 200 miles of my 72560 zipcode, I would deliver it that far for free,  any distance beyond that I would need to charge $2 per mile.

I am also willing to sell it completed but I need a commitment right now. Here are the details:

Here is the deal of the winter, I have enough time to finish this house before starting the bigger unit so I will offer one heck of a deal to anyone ready to pull the trigger today on this house finished and completed with bath, kitchen, wood interior, etc., Same delivery option as above,  free delivery within 200 miles of 72560, $2 per mile after that. The price for the house completed is just $9250 hopefully someone will take advantage of me and my situation and get a real bargain on a quality house, I really do need to move this house asap, to accept this offer the buyer will need to put down a 50% deposit with remainder due upon delivery, I will honor this offer until Tuesday 2-23-10 noon Central Time, the offer for the dried in version will be good thru Friday 2-27-10 5P.M. Central Time.

You can reach Scott anytime at 870-213-5310 or by email ozarksbest@yahoo.com.

To view some of Scott’s finished work I have attached some photos of one of his previous projects. Either Scott or I can send you more pictures of other projects he has done too. Continue Reading »
