Key Market Trends Fueling Growth

Tiny homes have emerged as the most economical housing option, particularly favored by millennials. These homes can be customized to meet the needs of buyers and are significantly more affordable than traditional site-built homes. Tiny homes typically cost between $10,000 and $30,000, a fraction of the $200,000 to $300,000 average cost of new site-built homes in the US.

This price difference is due to lower construction costs, which are between $45 and $50 per square foot for traditional homes. For instance, building a two-story, 2,700 square-foot home costs about $130,000 to $140,000 in materials alone. These costs include foundation, roofing, siding, framing, drywall, paint, and flooring.

The high expenses associated with conventional homes often strain buyers' finances, driving many to choose tiny homes as a more affordable alternative. Additionally, tiny homes are helping to address rental affordability issues in Australia. As a result, the affordability of tiny homes is expected to drive growth in the global tiny homes market in the coming years.

Market Challenges

• In developed economies like the US, there is a strong demand for tiny homes, while in developing economies, adoption and sales of these homes are relatively low. This is mainly because individuals in developing nations tend to buy traditional homes due to their limited knowledge and awareness of tiny homes. The market faces significant challenges due to the absence of major vendors and consumers' reluctance to purchase these homes.
• For example, low- and middle-income countries in South America and the APAC region lack the necessary infrastructure for tiny homes. Consequently, people in these countries prefer to stay in conventional on-site homes, hindering the growth of the global tiny homes market. Vendors find it difficult to enter developing markets in APAC and Eastern Europe because of limited knowledge about product offerings and technologies.
• Although China and Japan have the potential to become key markets due to suitable demographics, other developing nations face restricted growth due to poor infrastructure and limited awareness. To overcome these challenges, vendors must educate people on the benefits of tiny homes, especially their affordability, before entering these markets. This education effort may slow the growth of the global tiny homes market during the forecast period.

1.1 Mobile tiny homes- The mobile tiny homes segment is expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period. There has been a notable increase in demand for mobile homes in recent years. These homes, which include permanently attached chassis, are built and assembled in factories before being transported on wheels or trucks to their designated sites.

Mobile homes play a critical role in the affordable housing market in various countries. In 2018, the mobile homes segment was the largest, valued at USD 9.38 billion. The rising costs of conventional housing in many countries are expected to drive further demand for mobile homes over the next five years. Young people struggling to afford traditional homes and retirees looking to optimize their savings are key drivers of this demand.

The United States leads the market, followed by Australia. In response to growing demand and anticipated market expansion, many real estate and mobile park operators in these countries are converting vacation mobile parks into exclusive retiree mobile home estates. These factors are contributing to the growth of the mobile tiny homes segment, which is expected to boost the overall market during the forecast period.
