3/6/10: We revisit Peter King, also known as “The Tiny House Guy” thanks to a Stuck in VT video that went viral last winter. Peter has built 11 tiny houses since we saw him last but is not super pleased with his new moniker.
We also meet Dale Helms who is downsizing with his wife from their 2,400 square foot home to a 1,200 square foot home. While they build the smaller house, they will live in a 400 sq ft home that Peter helped them build. With the help of this tiny house, they hope to eliminate their debt.
With the economy in shambles and foreclosures running rampant, tiny houses seem more relevant than ever. But Peter has some ideas that are even bigger than his tiny houses.
