For argumentâs sake letâs say your 200 sqm townhouse costs $300,000 and at 125 sqm it would cost $187,500. You may get an extra $120k in sales value for the larger build, so in theory you get an extra $7,500 profit per townhouse, but you have a much higher build cost and it will be much harder to fund.
The average price to build a tiny home yourself is just $23,000, according to TheTinyLife.com.

In 2015, the median sale price of a new traditional house was $296,200, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
