What is depreciation like on a tiny house ?
That's why you buy 20-30" sections of old airliner fuselage.

I envy your parents situation—a little trailer on a big piece of land?

The first thing to do is get a geodesic dome over it. In this case it would be an electrical conduit and canvas shell, but you can make it big enough to tear down the trailer to it's frame and live in it at the same time, using the appliances that will go into the trailer when it's done.

Better yet, trade up to a 1950s Spartan and use the dome for a pool-house.
