Turnkey by design

Turnkey. Built to Live In From Day One.

These aren’t prefabricated, modular, or tiny homes on wheels. Every build is built from the ground up with high-quality materials and delivered complete, with utility connections, HVAC and heating, electrical, plumbing, a full kitchen and a full bathroom. Nothing is left for you to figure out after handover - you get keys to a finished home.

As a custom design builder, our capabilities run from a 240 sq ft backyard tiny home all the way up to a full single-family home. Whatever the size, the design, engineering, permitting and construction are handled in-house and built to local codes and the highest standards.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of homes do you build?

We specialize in turn-key, custom single-family homes and backyard Tiny Homes, also known as Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). These units can either be attached or detached from any existing dwelling on your property, and are perfect as guest houses, rental units, or private living spaces for family members or loved ones. Additionally, we can develop entire plots of land with multiple single-family homes or multiple Tiny Homes for investors and landowners who want to create rental communities or real estate developments.

How much do your homes cost?

Since every project is custom, the exact price depends on size, client design and finish selections, site location, and site conditions (for example, whether it is in town or two hours away in the country, whether it is in a floodplain, how far it is from utility access, soil and ground conditions, etc.).

We are a custom builder with a catalog of base models ranging from a 240 square foot studio to a 1,000 square foot three bedroom home, but we also build fully custom single family homes of any size and any number of bedrooms and bathrooms. We can build one of our catalog models exactly as shown, modify a catalog model, or create something completely novel based on a client's vision.

The smallest model in our catalog is our 240 square foot studio floor plan, which costs around $100,000 with our full set of Standard Inclusions. Our 1,000 square foot base model costs around $235,000 with the same Standard Inclusions. Pricing can be reduced by approximately 10 percent by excluding kitchen appliances and selecting lower cost, renter grade finishes.

Price per square foot varies based on client design and finish selections. Our base pricing includes our Standard Inclusions, which are a few steps above builder grade. Price per square foot is higher for smaller units because all of our base models include a full kitchen and bathroom, which represent the most expensive portions of a build.

As projects increase in size, the price per square foot decreases. For larger projects, such as developing multiple units on a single property, pricing varies based on the overall scope of work. After your initial consultation and site visit, we provide a detailed estimate tailored to your goals.

Will my HOA allow this?

Probably. Every HOA has different rules and many people that reach out to us assume building an ADU on their property is not possible because of their HOA. However, we successfully navigate HOA guidelines on a regular basis to get our clients the Tiny Home or additional space they need. During your consultation and site visit, we review your community's restrictions and determine the best path forward, and we find there is almost always a creative solution to accomplishing a client's goals while complying with any HOA restrictions.

Not necessarily. HTX Tiny Homes has been very successful in working with HOAs to get our projects completed in deed-restricted HOA communities.

Do you handle permits and approvals?

Yes, we are a turn-key builder offering a white glove design and build service to our clients. We take care of all the architectural design, engineering, permitting and approvals needed. From zoning checks to building codes, managing the paperwork, designing and building your Tiny Home, we do it all so it's ready to live in when we hand the keys over at completion.

How long does the process take?

The timeline varies from project to project. Typically, for backyard ADUs you can generally expect 6-8 months from start of design to move-in ready completion.

Larger land development projects with multiple units may take longer depending on site conditions, permitting, and infrastructure needs.

We provide a more accurate estimate after your site visit and project review.
