>A retired software developer told Insider how she went mortgage-free by leaving her traditional home behind to move into a "Hobbit"-style dwelling where most residents are single women over the age of 45.

>The 65-year-old spent $25,000 on a bespoke "Hobbit"-style home in 2020, and another $10,000 on renovations and three years of ground rent to live in the community. The home was designed by Incredible Tiny Homes, which made some adjustments to the property at Runyon's request.

>She has since had the property appraised by an insurer, which said it was now worth more than $50,000. But the financial windfall pales in comparison to other benefits Runyon has reaped from living tiny.

financial windfall lmao

>Runyon says she "wasn't a hugger" before she moved to the enclave. But after setting up a support group for tiny home residents before moving to Tennessee, she has found intimacy easier.

One of my old teachers lived in a house built into the side of a hill. It was fascinating and I can only imagine all the unique problems that come with that.

Tiny homes are okay but you really need your own land to make it work (and most zoning won't let you build one anyway). This is just trailer parks but woke
