Frequently Asked Questions
WHERE CAN I PLACE A NORTHWOOD TINY HOME?
According to state laws, any property zoned as single or multi-family can build a tiny home, regardless of location, HOAs, or any other local regulations, as long as you have the space. The most common placement is in the backyard, but tiny homes can also be placed in the side yard or even the front of your house, given there is enough room when considering setbacks, local regulations, and any unique easements on your property.
WHAT CAN I CUSTOMIZE AND DESIGN?
Because our tiny homes are stick-built on-site, you have many options to customize our base models or create a custom tiny home from scratch. From floor plans, room sizes, kitchen fixtures, and cosmetic changes, we can help you create the exact space you’ve always imagined.
Some of the key elements you can customize include:
