If space in Auckland or wherever else in the North Island is at a premium, surely building 4 or 5 tiny houses on the same land area as one traditional house, makes sense. Maybe these would be council houses - I don’t know. I’m just saying there are alternative options to trying to squeeze more and more houses into cities that are apparently already full to bursting.
Am I the only one who can see the logic in this as an option? Maybe this is just the wrong forum.
