About Simply Tiny Homes
Simply Tiny Homes, operating under the brand Simplify Further, is a tiny home builder based in Lake Butler, Florida. They design and build certified tiny homes on wheels, with prices starting at $30,000, and offer nationwide delivery across the United States. With over 100 tiny homes built and delivered, they have established a presence in the tiny home industry through NOAH certification, BBB Accreditation with an A+ rating, and recognition at the Florida Tiny Home Festival.
Their tiny homes are built to serve a variety of purposes, including full-time living, guest houses, and short-term vacation rentals such as Airbnb. For property owners looking to add a backyard cottage or a guest suite to their land, Simply Tiny Homes offers a moveable structure that can function similarly to an accessory dwelling unit — without the permitting complexity typically associated with foundation-built structures.
What Simply Tiny Homes Builds
Simply Tiny Homes builds tiny homes on wheels (THOWs), which are distinct from both traditional RVs and foundation-built homes. Unlike RVs, which are designed to be lightweight and aerodynamic for frequent travel, Simply Tiny Homes constructs their units to be strong, durable, and long-lasting. The focus is on quality materials and aesthetics, with the goal of creating a living environment that feels comfortable and visually appealing — whether for the owner or for short-term rental guests.
Their homes are designed to be moveable rather than constantly mobile. Once delivered to a client's property, they typically remain in a semi-permanent location. If a client relocates, the home can be transported, as it remains on its trailer and wheels throughout its life.
Key features of their builds include:
- NOAH Certification — third-party inspections at each stage of construction, meeting ANSI 119.5, fire safety, and electrical codes
- Full-size flush toilets with sewer/septic connections via RV hookups
- Optional compostable toilet upgrades
- Custom design packages available for clients with specific requirements
- Models available for immediate delivery off the lot, or built-to-order with up to a 3-month turnaround
It is worth noting that Simply Tiny Homes does not perform conversions of existing structures. They build exclusively from the ground up and do not work with pre-existing buildings, as they cannot guarantee the same quality standards when working with structures that come with their own history.
Delivery, Placement, and Financing
Simply Tiny Homes delivers to any location in the United States. Shipping costs are quoted individually based on distance, with a general rate of $4 per mile from Lake Butler, FL. Most of their tiny homes weigh under 10,000 lbs and can be towed with an F250 or equivalent truck. No special use permit is required for towing, provided the home meets standard road dimensions — which all of their models do.
For placement, clients often park their tiny home on their own property, or on a friend's or family member's land. Local zoning regulations vary, so clients are advised to check with their county or city regarding any restrictions. In some areas, a THOW may be classified as an RV, which affects applicable rules.
Simply Tiny Homes does not offer in-house financing, but they provide financing recommendations and can supply product documentation to help clients secure funding through their own bank or credit union. NOAH Certification can also make it easier for clients to obtain financing and insurance independently.
For those interested in a custom tiny home, Simply Tiny Homes offers a custom design consultation process. After finalizing the design, clients receive a cost estimate before committing to a build order.
