Tiny Homes in Ontario
Tiny homes on wheels and on foundations are becoming more and more popular in Ontario in recent years. With the already existing housing shortage aggravated into a crisis by the pandemic, housing prices for both ownership and rentals have shot up.
Toronto and Ottawa have become unaffordable for most homebuyers and small towns in Ontario are seeing an influx of big-city residents, effectively pricing out the small town and rural population from these homes.
Prospective tiny home owners in Ontario have two choices: to permit their tiny home in a municipality, which requires Ontario Building Code and bylaw compliance, or to use it as a Park Model RV in a year-round campground.
