Elon Musk has officially confirmed what millions have been waiting
for: the first 100 Tesla Tiny Houses are ready to ship. Priced at just $7,999, these revolutionary homes promise to change the way people
live rCo forever. Fully solar-powered, off-grid ready, and equipped with AI-driven smart systems, the Tesla Tiny House is being hailed as the
boldest step yet toward true energy independence.
The next phase, Musk confirmed, will be 10,000 homes by mid-2026 rCo a massive scaling effort that could make Tesla one of the largest

Nothing new about small kit houses, Aussieshave been living in them for over 100 years.

in a place you can't afford to put one of those other small houses.
Rules and regulations won't make that so easy for many people.

big 4 bedroom houses they got built for them in the
new subdivisions and they all have sheds and virtually
all the other new houses have a shed and you can check
that using google satellite view and google earth
So they went through all the red tape, it's still a problem, and
likely more of it for a house rather than a shed not intended to
be lived in (or even have power/water connected in that garden
shed's case).
it wasn't the case a few decades ago but myneighbour's garden shed was
just a year ago.
So were those 3 mates of mine and the
other houses in those new subdivisions
Maybe they have nicer councils, but the legal problems are still
there in councils that aren't so nice.
Certainly put me off getting anything new built.
More fool you.
Requirements vary by council
but I know in the nextdoor council area they wouldn't give planning
permission for one farmer to put up a new shed because it might
upset the native birds - even though there's a wind farm on his
land. It's complete nonsense.
That's not a normal housing block
Neither shed is on a "normal housing block". Like I said, the middle
of farmland. In "normal housing blocks" you'll have neighbours
complaining instead, like in one of the tiny home links I posted but
you're determined to make up excuses to ignore that.
And pleny will sell you a small house with everything
you need installed which arrives on the back of a truck
which is no bigger than a 20' shipping container
Sure, but then you need it approved
No different to a normal house
They're supposed to be different to a normal house,
Only because of the size
Nothing new about small kit houses, Aussies have been living in
them for over 100 years. The idea is you can plonk one of these
in a place you can't afford to put one of those other small houses.
Rules and regulations won't make that so easy for many people.
that's the
point. If you've got to go through all the approvals there'll be
much more extra cost an uncertainty than the basic idea of placing
an order and getting a house delivered.
More bullshit when that design has already
been approved with previous sales.
Same with my neighbour's shed kit which is a stock design by an
Australian shed manufacturer.
or it's a "temporary structure"
Not if it doesnt have wheels
which you're not allowed to live in for more thana year or two. As
described in the links I posted.
Those were talking about houses with WHEELS, fuckwit
It's irrelevent whether it has wheels,
Bullshit, that's what makes it temporary
it's about whether it's approved as a permanentstructure. "Legal
issues" exist regardless.
Not necessarily, plenty of sheds dont need any
planning permission or any council involvement
because of their sized
Only if the council is nice about them. Fact is that mine makes it
hard, and many councils are making it hard for tiny houses too.

I've seen a few "Tiny houses", and they have all had wheels.
What some fuckwit pom may or may not have seen is completely irrelevant
The small houses that come on a truck don't have wheels and neither
what the mining industry calls dongas either and neither do granny flats
Note the wheels

If they didn't you'd probably need planning permission.
Just like a normal house and you are wrong aboutdemountables too in
many jurisdictions
No anywhere I've lived,

I had a shed put up that didn't need council permission,

and is not considered habitation.
There are plenty of very small granny flats that are
perfectly legal and bed sit flats in blocks of flats so
you don't have to pay for a whole block of land

A neighbour of mine embezzled over 2 million from the NSWFB 10 years
ago to buy the house next to me.
He immediately put up 8 foot high steel commercial fence (which I
liked) no one came to tell him to tear it down.
Seems if no one complains you get away with it.
ICAC had a complaint about his embezzlement though.
Seems he knocked off a laptop one of his workmates was after.
His workmate got miffed and called in ICAC
He sold the house for half what he paid for, after being sentenced for
3 years jail (lawyer bills?).
The new neighbors are tops, no troubles. like to keep to themselves.
Fence to them is not a problem either.
So all is fine till you get dobbed in.
Just recently a neighbour became miffed at another and complained
about it being on her footpath/road verge ><https://www.9news.com.au/national/queensland-family-faces-fine-over-immaculate-lawn/b38e6366-7c60-4e2f-8c82-82da512bd6df>

The synthetic grass covers the front and back yards but it is the

In a letter, Gold Coast City Council advised her to rip it up or face
further action.

What about water supply and dunnies? And power?
People living in car

town.

The old rule applies. If you don't bother anyone, you can do as you
like.
I have evil designs on a footpath tree which I surreptitiously prune
back every winter. Normally, interfering with a council tree is a
capital offence.
My neighbor & I have put up a 2m paling fence without permission.
