    It’s not just the permits; it’s the land itself. The vast majority of every metro area’s land is zoned single-family with minimum lot sizes vastly larger than what a single tiny home would need, so you end up being forced to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of land before you can even start to build on it, tiny house or otherwise.
