We at Tiny Town Texas have had a nine-year love affair with the city of Kerrville since strategically moving our family there from Michigan. We wanted to live somewhere warm and join a small community of entrepreneur-minded, conservative-thinking, world changers. We found just what we were looking for in Kerrville and are so grateful for the fantastic friendships we have built and we want nothing more than to give back to this amazing community and make Kerrville an even better place for future generations.
When we built our first tiny home in 2017, we were met with such enthusiasm from local business owners and leaders, including the Mayor, Chamber of Commerce, and the Kerr Economic Development Corp., Partnering with the perfect Real Estate Investor and his San Marcos team may have taken three years, but it was worth it because we don’t have to compromise our mission as they share our values, which makes the development process loads of fun, not stressful like some previous people who wanted to partner with us. Our investor will be revealed as the project unfolds, but until then, we anticipate the same enthusiastic response. Our mission is producing the best possible housing development to improve the quality of life for singles, empty nesters or retirees, and the average working family.
We believe this prototype will stand as a monument and proof that quality and beauty don’t have to be sacrificed in order to create affordable housing. Our business model is built around giving back to the community through the Hero Program as designed by our investor; this program offers a select number of firefighters and police officers a housing incentive package that pays for their first 12 months mortgage payment. The Hero Program will ensure Kerrville can recruit and keep some amazing individuals in the city who fill critical roles.
Our vision is to create a resilient community by creating a sustainable lifestyle using innovative vertical farming, greenhouses, edible landscaping, solar energy, rainwater harvesting, and ultimately by encouraging financial responsibility. A community that fosters relationships through group activities in a culture of honor will watch resiliency bloom as a natural result. Apartment complexes can never offer this kind of quality lifestyle with the addition of homeownership. We believe it will require innovation to develop land in ways that may not be traditional and we invite you to join us as pioneers who offer creative solutions to get this project done, creating a safe and healthy environment for all; one that will be sustainable to the neighborhood so families can thrive here for years to come.
