Tiny Home Plans. What It Really Costs To Build A Tiny Home | Dream Home. It amazes me all the claims you read about super cheap tiny house construction. Honestly, I feel these claims are misleading at best. To build any structure meant for extended residency, year round living, costs money. It’ll cost what you have planned and probably much more to settle into living in a small space. My plan parameters were simple. I wanted a comfortable home which meets all my needs, but didn’t cost me 30 years of loan principle and interest. I saved all receipts from the build and have compiled a total cost based on reviewing them and calculating costs by categories in the building process.
