Tiny Homes Provide Multigenerational Housing


In the last several decades, families have spread far and wide, but that's starting to change in a post-pandemic world.


Family can provide a ton of support and comfort in these unprecedented times, but for generations of families to peacefully coexist, everyone must have the space, privacy, and amenities they need.


Tiny homes are a fantastic housing option for intergenerational families because they are physically separate living spaces that provide complete autonomy. And in many counties, tiny homes can be placed legally in backyards!


Imagine having peace and quiet during the day, and privacy at night, while coming together as a family for dinner, holiday celebrations, and movie nights?


This is the dream for many people, and a Newark tiny home ADU in your backyard makes this dream possible.



Tiny Houses Allow Caretakers to Live Nearby


How much does it cost to hire in-home caretaking? Well, you might be able to strike a deal if you offer caretaker housing in the form of a tiny house ADU!

If you or someone in your family would benefit from having a qualified healthcare or housekeeping professional nearby, a tiny house ADU can accomplish this without requiring you to pay for a foundation-built accessory dwelling unit.


Having a cherished caretaker nearby will put your mind at ease and allow someone to act quickly in the case of emergencies.


Having a tiny house ADU in your backyard also means that help is so close by that it won't be a big deal to ask for help with details like putting wet clothes in the dryer or getting a lid off a stubborn jar.



Tiny House ADUs Create Passive Income


If you own a traditional home, you are thisclose to generating passive income with a tiny house ADU!


If you don't know, passive income is money that comes to you for doing very little work. It's a set-it-and-forget-it income source.


So what do you think? Could you use extra spending money or cushion for your retirement?


If you'd like to earn money while creating much-needed cheaper housing in California, a tiny house ADU could solve everyone's problems!



Tiny Homes Make Great Starter Homes for Children and Grandchildren


A tiny house ADU might start as guest quarters or an income-producing asset, but when the time is right, a tiny house is the perfect starter home for your child or grandchild!


As a rental unit, a tiny house can build a little one's nest egg, and later, a tiny house will give them a strong start in the world by giving them a house to call their own!


Tiny home ADUs make great starter homes for children and grandchildren because when their tiny house is parked in your backyard, they'll have support, and you'll have their company nearby. And when they are ready to fly the nest, they can take their house with them!


It might be sad to think of children or grandchildren flying the nest, but if you get lonely, just consider this: you'll have a tiny house parking pad to rent out, and you can allow another family to get their start in the world while keeping you company!


Or, if you need another tiny house, our team at Newark will happily build you one!



A Tiny House ADU Is the Perfect Guest Room


Do you love entertaining? Or throwing big family gatherings? Would you love to see family and friends more often, but travel is just so expensive?


If this sounds like you, there is no better way to encourage people to come to your house than to have a place for them to stay.


Tiny house AUDs make the perfect guest rooms because they provide privacy and comfort while not costing your guests a dime.


So what do you think? Do you need a tiny house ADU guest room in your backyard?


Disclaimer: Not our fault if your sister moves into your Newark tiny house ADU and refuses to leave.


Pro Tip: The best way to get her out is to help her buy a tiny house of her own!



Tiny Home ADUs Make Great Home Offices


As more and more people work remotely, the demand for tiny house offices has risen.


Is there anything more convenient than having your office in the backyard?


Tiny home offices provide natural simplicity and focus so you can work from home easily.


So stock that fridge with plenty of sparkling water, and spring for an espresso machine because once you buy a tiny home ADU work-from-home office, you won't want to leave!



Tiny Houses Can Be Yoga Studios, Art Studios, or Personal Libraries


Have you ever heard of a tiny house yoga studio? How about a tiny house art studio? Tiny house writer's retreat?


If you love to play music, read books, or otherwise enjoy hobbies, a tiny house ADU in your backyard will give you a place to store the necessary gear and bring focus to your passions.


Just imagine having your own tiny house library! If you put a Newark tiny home in your backyard, you could have wall-to-wall bookshelves, huge comfy chairs, an electric fireplace to read by, and a French press of coffee brewing as you read.


Oh, and scones. No tiny house library is complete without scones.
