Samantha and Robert Garlow, both 31, had grown sick of throwing their money away on rent. In order to cut down on their debts and increasing savings, the pair decided to build their own $29,000, 204-square-foot home sitting atop a trailer. The couple recently celebrated two years living in the space, now with a baby girl, and have loved the experience. Robert said in the “short two years our tiny house has been the best space possible to become first time parents while allowing us to create a financial safety net and refinance our student loans to an aggressive five-year eradication plan, all while allowing us to work less, travel more and spend more time together as a family.”
