Every Forever Tiny Home is crafted with customers’ needs and desires in mind. Mendoza and her crew have a keen knowledge of this unique industry.

Extra rooms away from their home for an office, or for college students, or extra income-renting Airbnbs, or for their own personal space, or a classroom setting because sometimes at home you don’t have that space.” Forever Tiny Homes is deluged with orders, in
