YES! In 2020 California had massive sweeping legislation change, mostly through SB-13 and AB-68, ensuring cities could not get in the way of building Accessory Dwelling Units (granny flats). Los Angeles and San Diego took it one step further by passing a Tiny Home as ADU ordinance. If anyone at a city tells you different, they are uneducated.

These units are classified as “Tiny Homes On Wheels“. This is a new classification of housing right in between mobile homes and RVs. Back Porch Homes are built on a trailer but are built to the quality of a residential home. They are easy to buy, easy to finance, easy to insure, easy to transport, easy to place, easy to live in, easy to repair and easy to sell.

Our factory is located at 328 S. Mountain View Ave, San Bernardino, CA 92408. If you would like a tour of the build process we are happy to schedule a time.

A third party installer will handle the permitting, installation, and utility connection of your home. Tiny Homes on Wheels are connected just like an RV to park-style hookups or hard connected to your existing utilities. You do not need a second meter for any utilities.

Septic systems come in all sizes and styles. Depending on your system’s age, size, and the number of occupants on your property, it may need to be upgraded.

No. These are Department of Transportation registered trailers. Once parked they can be elevated by jacks and the undercarriage can be covered with skirting, however a permanent foundation is an option if desired.

Your Back Porch Homes will come with a 1 year warranty.

Yes. They are ANSI certified by our plant certification company NTA.

Tiny Homes On Wheels are bought and sold just like cars. They are registered, liened, and transferred through the DMV. Our homes do not require registration with California Department of Housing and Community Development

Don’t worry. Our homes can easily be craned into your yard.

We estimate that a ¾ to 1 ton truck (IE: Ford F250 or F350) should be able to tow these homes. Be sure to check the towing capabilities of your vehicle before moving your home.

Yes. Back Porch Homes are 100% compliant with the Department of Transportation and are legal on all streets where RVs are permitted.

They’re actually mobile. The primary issue with “mobile” homes is how much they cost to move and how cheap the build quality is. Back Porch Homes are tow-ready and built to residential standards.
