Los Angeles has legalized movable tiny houses as ADUs

[Gabe Radovsky]

LA city has loosened up a number of laws around ADUs as of January 1, including legalizing movable tiny homes as ADUs.

Do any investors in other parts of the country have experience with buying or renting out movable tiny homes or other types of non-traditional living structures? I like tiny houses a lot on an aesthetic level, and I like that fully constructed ones can be bought for in the neighborhood of $20k. Even accounting for electric, water, and sewer hookups needing to be set up, it seems plausible that buying one of these as a rental could offer a better ROI than constructing a freestanding ADU building.
