After a year of Tiny House living (368 days) we decided to move our family of six back into our old house.
We tried to sell the house, but after 94 days on the market, having 35 couples looking at it, and having 4 offers that all fell through for various reasons, it was pretty clear that it was not going to sell. We even tried to rent it out, and got 50 responses in 5 hours, but after the second rental fell through, we just realized God was not in it, and while it might have been a good plan, it was not God's plan, and so we moved our family back in.
The house is nice, with a nice barn, even a starter flock of sheep was included, with winter hay, and out of 35 people who toured it, we never got any negative comments about the house itself, but there was consistency on why only a few people wanted it...almost all of them said, "it is much too rural here".
Is it in the middle of nowhere, or in the middle of everything? I guess that is the question?
There was aspects of Tiny House living we liked, and some we did not, but regardless we are here again. I have never lived anywhere else, so I just had no idea this area was considered "too rural".
