LAND & BUILDING PACKAGE starting at $265K. We got asked by a client to subdivide her section in Marton so she could offer it for private sale, and we now have the consent to do that. She's certainly not being greedy about the value, so there's an opportunity here for someone to get into a brand new home with 415m2 of land at a very affordable price. See https://ecohomes.net.nz/land-and-building/ for more info.

And so it begins. Our next generation Ecopod production is underway. This is a one bedroom 9.6m x 4m unit which is proving to be a popular size for granny flats or small secondary dwellings.

Our Winter 2025 Villa design is now in, and we're working through the fine tunings and specifications for one and two bedroom units. Details are here: https://ecohomes.net.nz/ecovillas/ We're also starting production of our one bedroom Ecopods in the 2nd week of June, and have capacity to take orders for July delivery.

We produce transportable tiny homes and deliver them throughout the central and lower North Island.

This was a bit of a moment, and very heartwarming to see how happy Tina and Nikki were to be on their new deck. Our builders, (Alannah, Jon and Billy [the dog]) were pretty pleased too with the results of the final Council inspection for our first ever accessible tiny home. The design allows for the hoist to go anywhere in the building, and it all works together as a unit seamlessly.

We've market tested our pricing and now have 2 orders for our one bedroom units underway in the Manawatu, so we're working through the consent documents on those and getting production underway. That has given us the confidence to launch our Showhome Partner programme, so if you have some land or part of your section that would be suitable for a Showhome, and want to create a part-time business as our partner in your territory, then please click here to read more. https://ecohomes.net.nz/eco-showhomes/

Amorini just came through with our new tiny home kitchen design and we're liking it! It fits across the 3m end wall of the unit and is the most efficient use of space that we've come up with so far. There's more info here: https://ecohomes.net.nz/our-range/

After reviewing materials and labour costs, we're pleased to say that we can keep the cost of our standard sleepout down to under 20K. It's now $18,500 ex our yard and including GST. Here's the elevations drawing of it, and some examples of units we've delivered recently. There's more info here https://ecohomes.net.nz/sleepouts/ .

Best news I've read in years :-) sub 60sqm, no consent - same as Victoria did last year hopefully.

What exactly is being proposed, and how easy will it actually be to build a self-contained dwelling in the backyard? University of Auckland's Bill McKay has the answers.
