"Hard times" also bring opportunities... Like this example!

With all the Homeless and Housing problems world-wide...

And the whole less is more Green thinking these days...

Consider getting into the Tiny house Niche building industry...

Whether as a builder, Tiny house Hotsheets... Marketing, re-selling... Maybe a Tiny house real estate brokerage network etc. etc...

Be prepared because the need is only going to Grow...

Innovation on the idea will continue to Evolve into a Big money making opportunity for those that get into Things nice and early...

Definitely, a Trend to watch...
