Shed To House - Total Cost - w/brothers Jared & Jason

We break down the total cost of our building from start to current. We all share the property, Jared lives in this house by himself. Jason & Jaylena are in the planning stages of building their tiny house on the property.

16x50 Derksen

95% of the work done by ourselves.

Screw the haters!!!! I bought a 14 x 20 from Derksen already ready to live in for $13, 000 they make a great shed. All I did was paint the exterior, put it on my land, paid for a septic system and electric to house. Water well was already on site. Total cost without any landscaping around $22, 000. I've been here for a little over 2 years. 1 more year and it will be paid off and I don't have to worry about a mortgage. Just pay utilities and taxes and I'm good. I love my tiny home and can't see myself moving into anything bigger. Great job on your shed to home.

Amazing. Id much rather live in a home as beautiful as this than one of those cookie cutter soulless house for 10x the price.

Was leaning towards the mobile home but now Diffiently going with a large shed. Thank u! Ur home looks wonderfully cozy! U guys do great work!

Place looks great !
I don't know what type of person could complain about this build.
Place is fantastic !
You boys did a damn fine job !
Me and my family are looking to do the same thing ! I'll be recording our process too, from start to finish and by my calculations about 30k is what the finished home will cost.
We're not made of money either !
But I'll tell you what, our house will speak to our nature, just like yours does your nature.
And to hell with anyone who doesn't like it !
Finding the right property is the toughest job of the process I think !

We will use a real wood burning stove and LP backup for cook top & on demand hot water.
I've done the math 5 different ways from keeping it simple, to making it lavish.
In my eyes....
It's about function, not fashion !
But it has to feel like home !
I'll keep you posted !

I absolutely totally completely LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR HOME. I'm new to this and my 22 year old daughter are going shed to home. The land we are purchasing will be paid off in 2 years and the shed in 5. We are doing one house for each at a time with sheds being added on as needed. I love to use Thrift items and RESTORE/aka habitat for humanity! We are planning on getting most of our stuff there! You guys totally rocked this video and on a side note, my oldest daughter 33 years and her wife will be assisting us with lots of the building, 8 hands work better then 4! My daughter has great design ideas bit her wife has the tool skills! Keep making these videos, you definitely have new fans here

I like the 2X6 counter tops. Those turned out well.

[mikeyj]

Wow, you guys are doing a great job for your home. Your attention to detail was on point. To be mortgage free in a short time is a dream most people will never see. 30 years is way too long. I like your solution to that problem.

"In fact we don't have any trees. Our goats ate them all." 😂😂🐐🐐
Just found y'all and am so impressed with all you've accomplished. Love your can-do and getting debt-free attitudes!

[amyallen]

OMG!!! It’s beautiful. You guys did an amazing job!!!

[DIRTDIVER]

Man u guys r awesome. Everytime i watch one of ur videos i swear i get closer & closer to making the leap & doing this. 👍. I tried explaining to my wife how i wanted to make a shed into a house, but all she heard was shed shed shed shed shed & was like yeah but ah no lol. But i showed her ur video titled "dont buy a shed until after u watch this" or something similar & honestly once she saw how awesome u guys made ur layout she was not so opposed to it bc she had a better understanding of what i was trying to explain to her. Thanks for allowing us to go on this journey with u guys & helping to get the creative idea's flowing.

I just got my shed-to-home last month... and working on it bit by bit... luckily, my dad's home is on the property also, so I have time... it is a 12x32 with a loft... y'all gave me some great ideas!

[peterdinsmoor]

I've been looking into the pole barn and converting . I really like what you folks have done and how you explain everything. Dig it .

[aintyourcupoftea]

Oh my gosh, I LOVE the way you finished your home! It's gorgeous ❤️ We're hoping to go something similar. I miss the farm life!
