Best Tiny Homes For Sale in Louisiana

While Louisiana might not be home to any tiny home builders that we have covered (as of April 2024), that does not mean that there are no tiny homes for sale in Louisiana. Given that many tiny home builders offer fully-mobile tiny houses on wheels, buyers can easily purchase a tiny home from out of state and have it shipped to Louisiana. This means that buyers can take advantage of tiny home sellers based in nearby states like Alabama, Georgia, and Texas. All of the tiny homes for sale on our list can be delivered throughout the Pelican State. That includes cities like New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Shreveport.

As it might be a bit more difficult to identify out-of-state tiny home builders that could work for your project, we have developed a list of some of the best tiny houses for sale in Louisiana. These small square footage homes, and the companies that build them, offer a good chance to take part in the tiny house movement. For each company on our list, we have included information on their headquarters, a summary of their operations, an example of their past work, as well as a list of their available models with cost estimates.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tiny Homes in Louisiana

How much does a tiny house for sale in Louisiana cost?

A tiny home for sale in Louisiana purchased from an out-of-state company, who builds and sells tiny houses, can range from $130 - $300 per square foot. This is based on the cost of the tiny home model plus light site work (clearing an area, preparing a flat gravel pad, and preparing utility connections).

What affordable housing options exist in Louisiana aside from joining the tiny house movement?

If you are looking for options other than tiny houses for sale in Louisiana luckily, there are a variety of different options. If you are drawn to the tiny house trend for living spaces that are nice and unique at an affordable price, you might want to take a look at kit homes. There are several unique options like 

Gastineau Log Homes designs and manufactures log cabin kits and log cabin homes. They are based in Central Missouri and offer a series of modular, tiny home cabins called “Log Cabins 2 Go”.

If you want a tiny house as an alternative to the high cost of homes in Louisiana, you might be interested in a manufactured house. They are a bit different from traditional homes and modular/kit homes. Many times manufactured homes don’t qualify for the same types of financing as traditional homes and their value doesn’t appreciate the same over time. Manufactured homes are still an affordable alternative to Louisiana tiny homes. Companies like Oak Creek Homes, Clayton Homes, and Pratt Homes are options you may want to consider in Louisiana.
