Tiny Homes for Sale in Texas

Placement depends on your jurisdiction, which is why we check your exact address before you order. In Texas, a KYRAX tiny home is typically classified as follows: A tiny house on wheels is titled as a trailer or travel trailer by TxDMV; a factory-built modular unit under the TDLR IHB program is treated as site-built real property.. Texas has not adopted IRC Appendix Q statewide, and the 2025 statewide ADU-by-right bill (SB 673) died on June 2, 2025, so ADU rules, setbacks, and THOW placement remain under local city and county control. Local zoning, setbacks, and utility rules still apply — run your site through the zoning lookup and we'll tell you plainly what works.

The median home price in Texas is ~US$335K. Our flagship model, the Vale, starts at $119,900 CAD — a fraction of a conventional build (US pricing confirmed at your consultation). On a foundation, our modular models follow the US mortgage path (IBC/IRC); movable models use chattel or RV lending. Common uses here are Hill Country and rural guest or weekend cabins, RV-community and tiny-home-community placements for movable units, and IHB modular units placed as permanent dwellings on foundation lots., and we quote your specific situation on request.

Texas builds to Statewide statutory minimum is the 2012 IRC (2012 IBC for commercial/multifamily) via HB 738, effective Jan 1, 2022, with the 2015 IECC for energy. This is a floor; cities and counties permit locally and many adopt newer editions (2018/2021 IRC) plus local amendments.. Every KYRAX home is built to its US certification pathway — RVIA or NOAH inspection for tiny homes on wheels, ANSI A119.5 for park models, IBC/IRC for modular — with third-party certification for your destination market written into the build contract and confirmed before delivery. We can walk you through the engineering documentation your local authority may require.

Often not, and it depends entirely on your city or county. Because Texas titles a tiny house on wheels as a trailer or travel trailer through TxDMV rather than as a dwelling, many jurisdictions prohibit it as a permanent residence or restrict it to RV parks and designated tiny-home communities. Unincorporated rural land is generally the most permissive. There is no statewide rule, so confirm with your local jurisdiction before you buy.

A modular unit built to the Texas Industrialized Housing and Buildings (IHB) program, administered by TDLR under Occupations Code Chapter 1202. An IHB unit carries a TDLR decal affixed before shipment and is treated as site-built real property, distinct from an RV or a HUD-code manufactured home, which makes it far easier to place on a foundation lot than a wheeled unit. Local zoning still controls whether a given lot allows it.
