Michael's journey into Tiny Houses began with building a cabin on his own land due to rising housing costs. Starting with a bare section, he expanded into multiple units, gaining firsthand experience with off-grid living. Today, Michael brings his expertise to the clients of Absolute Tiny Houses, where he is dedicated to inspiring, helping, and guiding others on their New Zealand Tiny Home journey. With a passion for supporting individuals, Michael offers insightful advice and practical help to turn their visions and ideas into reality.
As a supportive father of Michael, George has seen the entire journey of Absolute Tiny Houses come to life. He has been drawn in and involved in one way or another over the years. A DIY enthusiast with a practical and logical approach, George is always happy to discuss all the tiny house possibilities with anyone who calls. His hands-on experience and dedication ensure that every inquiry is met with valuable insights and thoughtful guidance.
Initially a Tiny House enthusiast and an apprentice on the tools, Ivor's enthusiasm drove him to fully engage with the entire business. He created effective systems and structures, ensuring everything runs smoothly. In doing this he has developed a well-rounded expertise in all aspects of Absolute Tiny Houses.

It’s true that you can ship tiny houses from overseas – just one of the benefits of their small size! But a tiny house in NZ will face unique environmental and climate challenges not found elsewhere. Why risk it? Get your new tiny home built right here by expert tiny house builders and rest assured it will suit your needs for years to come.
Moreover, who better to understand your lifestyle needs than your fellow Kiwis? North or South, beachside or hilltop, fully mobile or settling down for good – Absolute Tiny Houses NZ build tiny homes NZ specifically for NZ conditions and for NZ people.
This is what we mean by the Tiny House NZ movement – we are bringing the tiny house revolution to our land and optimising it for our needs.
While the Tiny House Movement is big in the U.S. and other countries, is it the right thing for us here in NZ? Can we live in portable small homes in compliance with local guidelines? And what about the unique building requirements in New Zealand? Is this movement a viable alternative for us?
This is where Absolute Tiny Houses NZ has the answers. We are New Zealand born and bred and we’ve been in the building game for years. We have adopted the tiny house way of life and adapted our building techniques to suit uniquely NZ conditions.
In fact, you could say we are committed to starting the “Tiny House NZ” movement and helping more New Zealanders set themselves free with the Tiny House NZ lifestyle!
Renting to own is a popular option for people choosing the tiny homes lifestyle in NZ.
In other words, the money you repay every month helps to pay back the original loan you received. At the end of the term, you own the property.
The big difference with a tiny house in NZ is that the amount of the initial loan will be much less. So, while a mortgage on a traditional house could take 25 or 30 years to pay off, you might be able to pay off your tiny house in as little as five years with a low monthly payment.
You have two main options if you want to go down the rent to own route:
Re-mortgaging – re-mortgaging typically uses the equity in a property to provide you with the funds you need to buy your tiny house. Our customers sometimes re-mortgage properties they own, or they come to an agreement with friends or family.
Loan – if you don’t have access to a re-mortgage facility, you can apply for a loan through our Tiny House Finance provider. The interest is likely to be higher than the interest charged on a mortgage, but you can pay off the loan faster, getting into a 100 percent equity situation in years rather than decades.
Absolute Tiny Houses NZ offers something unique – tiny houses built in New Zealand for New Zealanders. You can start with a shell and fit it out yourself or choose from our wide range of optional extras for a truly turn-key solution.
We offer one of the most comprehensive ranges of tiny homes for sale in NZ. All the way from a cosy 4.1m open plan cabin up to a 10.8m 2 bedroom luxury tiny home, there is something for everyone at all stages of life.
We can custom design your floor plan and build your tiny house to your specifications with no hidden costs. We can also assist with numerous fit-out options such as cooktops, hot water systems, grey water filtration, solar off-grid setups, rainwater collection systems, and fully warranted and registered tandem or triple axel trailers. We even have finance options and can put you in touch with the right financial advice to make the switch to the Tiny House NZ way of life.
If you need more guidance we have a portfolio of different builds that you can base your tiny house design on and can offer expert advice on various aspects of the tiny home life.
