It might seem cramped to you, but there are plenty of reasons people consider downsizing into a tiny home. Young adults who've been priced out of living in the city, retirees who prefer a tiny home on wheels to a giant RV, even folks whose finances were upended by the recession, are all driving a trend toward smaller, more economical living spaces.
Guest:
