Are you thinking of building a small home? Let's talk about it.

As I said, a lot of people are looking at smaller and smaller homes. And this isn't just for second homes or vacation homes. The trend now is to care for the environment and building smaller homes, even if they are quality and luxurious homes, makes a lot of sense.

It is commonly believed that homes and buildings represent the biggest consumption of energy in the world today.

Small houses use less energy to operate

They take less energy and effort to build

Small homes need fewer building materials to build

They are less expensive to build

Small home designs require a smaller footprint on the earth

They are easier and cheaper to clean and maintain

Less energy means more savings each month for the homeowner. Fewer building materials means less pollution during manufacturing. A smaller footprint means more earth is left untouched and green.

Smaller Homes Require Better Design

So, if you don't need the space, and especially if your house is designed to maximize the use of every square inch, a small home can be ideal. Just be sure not to shortchange yourself out of space you truly need.
