If I had to choose a second career, it would probably be residential architecture. I absolutely love looking at house designs and floor plans.

After our multiple visits with the designer to build our manufactured home we received word, “Our price is $24,000 over our original budget.”

I never thought this would happen, but while I was explaining to my brother what type of home I was purchasing, “manufactured house” came out…

So, my “thinking out of the box” mindset has lately been pondering the idea of obtaining my “dream home” through a different route:

Buying Land —–> Living in an RV ——–> Building a House

Attempting to keep up with all the tiny and small house news, I seem to have overlooked The small House Catalog website. Six adorable small house illustrations grace their home page followed by real photographs, a sample of what you get when you purchase their very reasonably priced plans, an FAQ page and complementary blog.
