Tiny homes in Austin

[Kristina Modares]

Hi everyone!

A lot of my clients have been interested in either finding a home with a tiny home in the backyard or building a tiny home/structure on a lot/multiple tiny homes on a lot. 

I'm not very familiar with the whole concept, although, in the past couple years I have heard it come up more and more. I know the city of Austin is strict about permits...I just would like to know if anybody has any advice or words of warning, so that I can educate my clients and myself.

Thank you!
