Happy New Year all you beautiful tiny house enthusiasts! It’s a balmy 0 degrees F here at my shop as I write this. Unless you are of the blood type who actually enjoys this kind of frigid weather, I hope you find yourself in more pleasant environs. If not, I at least hope you are in warm spirits!
2023 Brought great challenges to RMTH. We persevered and turned lemons into lemonade! Here is a sneak peak of some of the builds to come out of the new shop:
A crisp 8×28 build delivered to Silverton at the start of the year
A rustic yet elegant 10×24 delivered to Wyoming
A 10×40, our largest build yet! So big it required a huge tow truck to move!
A posh 8×30 destined for central Arizona
In due time, all these builds will get the fully detailed blog posts they deserve, but for now we just wanted to share a tid bit.
Last but not least is the new house my wife and I have been building for ourselves. It’s a modest 1400 sq ft home with a modern farmhouse kind of style. We got the exterior complete in November and have since been working on utilities and a little interior finish out. Things should really speed up once we pass the utility inspections. Like most construction projects, it fell behind schedule and our dream of moving in before Christmas is now looking more like March, but at least we didn’t bust the budget and have a comfortable place to live in the meantime (The San Juan, which is soon to be for sale FYI).
Pending completion of this house, production at the RMTH facility is going to ramp back up big time!! With this in mind, we are re-opening the doors for new orders. We are currently booked to the end of May, so anything from June on is fair game.
PLEASE PLEASE take note: while we have made a little bit of progress towards getting setting up with the State of Colorado to be a certified manufacturer for ANY tiny house build to be placed in Colorado, life constraints just haven’t afforded the opportunity to get fully certified. For this reason, WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING ORDERS FOR ANY TINY HOUSE BEING DELIVERED WITHIN COLORADO!! I know, it’s a bummer having to snub our home state, but we didn’t make the rules. We do however, have to abide by them! So, until we achieve this certification some time between Spring and Summer 2024, NO COLORADO ORDERS. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we sort this matter out.
So, if you are wanting a tiny house in any other state before the end of 2024, we can make it happen. Please visit the Contact page to get in touch. That is it for now. The RMTH crew wishes you all a healthy and prosperous 2024!!!
Hello!
Do you already have a buyer for the San Juan home you’re living in? If not, how much are you planning to sell it for please? I live in Bayfield & could arrange for transport if that’s the issue with Colorado (not sure if I am understanding that restriction).
Thank you,
Joanna
we just listed it for 90k. Transport is not the issue. You would likely have a hard time placing it in La Plata county, but give me a ring if interested
Hi,
I am potentially very interested in purchasing the San Juan. Do you have a suggestion for retrofitting a combo washer/dryer?
Lori
Would really like to have a consult for a tiny house build in taos asap !
Good evening!
I live in Aztec, NM and I’m looking for a humble home to put on my land to start my dreams. I don’t see pricing/cost! Please send my way 🙂
sent you an email!
Hi I am in CO and can wait for your certification. I would like to know if you can place your tiny houses on foundation?
we would still have to build on a trailer chassis, but the axles can be removed and the frame mounted to piers. La Plata county allows this if state certified
Hello!
Do you build these in New Mexico? Are they allowed in Santa Fe?
DJ
We have built several houses in NM! I don’t believe they are allowed in Sante Fe proper unless built by licensed NM modular manufacturer. You would need to check with the local building department
I am very interested in May/June build of a tiny home for myself and two dogs on my son’s property in Pagosa Springs. Can you tell me how long the project would take and rough estimate of cost?
shoot me an email greg@rockymountaintinyhouses.com
Would love floor plans or video. Size and price. Will you have models?
Hello Greg!
Epic work 🙂 Do you have a sense of when and for how much the San Juan will be available? I am in the process of designing my own thow & am quite moved by the amount of similarities in design. If you have already made what I want I may ask to buy your glorious tiny!
check out the Spring 2024 update! asking 90k
Hi there, I’m not sure I understand your order policy. Does this mean if we have a contractor that isn’t going to finish our tiny home, in Texas, that needs to be transported to Colorado to finish building, isn’t a possibility for us to ask for help?
If the house will ever be placed in Colorado as a full time residence, it will need to be state certified. If it were traveling back to Texas when done, then we can still help
That sucks. I had wanted to use you for a Colorado build. Oh, well.
Read the Spring update. We’re making progress on state cert
Hello Greg, Received your update. I wrote to you about my moving back to Colorado to retire. You quipped that you might not be building in 2028. Hopefully that will not be the case. Anyway, I wanted you to know that I have started the process of looking for another builder just in case. Your philosophy aligns so much with mine, in regard to integrity and healthy building materials, that I have compiled a comprehensive list to ask other builders. Based on their websites, they do not seem to place a high value on integrity of builds and healthy building materials. No one mentions it up-front. I will need to perform some deep-dives. Anyway, I hope you will be my future builder and in the meantime, kudos to you for being a champion in the industry. Best wishes with your certification.
Sincerely,
Eydie Falkenhagen
