    Default Container/Tiny home

    After a couple of years in a caravan,it's time to move into a dwelling a little larger and more comfortable.
    My block is just under 1/2 an acre so plenty of room for garden and pool.
    However I am not overly keen on engaging builder/tradies at this point in time as my faith in the building industry is severely compromised...I don't trust them!
    Hence I'm swinging towards a pre made Tiny home and/or a container home.
    If council allows I will get 2 Tiny homes on my block as I need to accommodate another person (friend)

    Have any members purchased a Tiny home and what are the pitfalls,if any.?
    Hoping to go off grid too so a decent solar set up required.
    Any suggestions as to where to purchase a Tiny home would be most helpful.
    I live in Nth Qld so need to sort logistics regarding transport etc
    Any thoughts welcome

    Talk to your council to see what the rules are first. A lot of councils have a maximum of 2 consecutive day stay in a tiny homes up to X days a year. Basically they don’t want them to be used for permanent habitation
    I have heard of people being forced to remove them
