I think some people would be attracted the idea of renting a stand alone unit. These specifically are targeted towards young individuals or couples opposed to families.

In this case at least, these aren’t trailers. They’re wood framed on permanent foundations like any other house would be. They just have a small footprint. Condominiums are being built in a similar manner more and more now, where you own the building but all the land is communal. The only difference here is that the homes are rented. It’s a nice alternative to living in an apartment building.

Who are the contractors? I can't quite make out the names.

Trailer parks have been a major source of affordable housing for decades now. It’s not shrinkflation, it’s just an inferior good. Kinda like how Spirit Airlines isn’t a fun sized JetBlue, it’s just an airborne bus.
If I have to criticize anything about more housing being built, it’s this classist “tiny house” terminology. You live in a trailer, Becky. Own it. It’s fine. The main problem with trailers is that they deteriorate much faster than traditional homes. But don’t let this landlord’s silver tongue grift you into paying $2000/mo for a trailer. Yes, I know these particular trailers are being rented for $1200/mo (for now), but the point remains.

This is just down the street from me and I think it’s a good idea. Those places sound really nice and I wish there was something available like this when I was renting.

Landlords lauded for shrinkflation. Better than nothing I guess.

Good! Hope we see more experiments in addressing different housing needs across the state.

Super cool that Dover took the initiative.

$410 last month for January for natural gas and electricity. This is the peak of the year though. It is difficult to say as rates doubled last summer as to what the average will be like for 2023. We have a 1,200 sq foot place.

Now I wish I took a picture last night when I came thru the notch about 3am. The moon light on the snow tops and crisp clear sky made everything super bright. I could turn off my headlights and see perfectly fine. It was like a beacon of light shining down from Mnt Washington.

1600 sq. ft. home built in 2004. I heat with propane and a heat pump and I like a cool house in the summer. I don't scrimp on my comfort.

True that. I never went anywhere near 16 when I lived in the Seacoast area and headed up to the mountains unless I was high and had the patience to deal with the traffic or someone else was driving, lol.

Haven’t picked a house yet, just budgeting right now. Most of what I’m seeing though either seems to be oil, propane, gas or gas pellet stoves. I refuse to buy a home with electric heat haha

Might want to mention how house the house you're looking at is heated

Electric heating comes in two major formats. Resistance heating is garbage due to extreme costs. Electric heat pumps on the other hand are amazing.
