Why Tiny Terra?

No other KC builder combines transparent pricing, local zoning expertise, and permanent foundation construction. Here's what sets us apart.

Transparent Pricing

We publish our price ranges upfront instead of hiding behind "call for a quote." You know the cost before you ever pick up the phone.

Studio: $85K–$110K 1-Bed: $120K–$150K 2-Bed: $160K–$210K

Local KC Zoning Experts

We handle permits, inspections, setback rules, and every KC-specific regulation so you don't have to. This is all we do, and we do it here.

Foundation-Built, Not Wheels

Your ADU sits on a permanent foundation and appreciates like real estate. Unlike RV-code competitors, your investment grows in value — it doesn't depreciate.

Unlike national prefab shippers, we're local. Unlike other KC builders, we publish our prices. Unlike wheels-based tiny homes, yours appreciates.

What Tiny Terra Homes does

Full-service ADU design and construction for Kansas City homeowners. From permits to move-in, handled end to end.

Custom ADU Design

Studio, 1-bed, and 2-bed configurations designed to maximize your backyard space. 3D visualization so you see it before it's built.

Permits & Compliance

Stamped plans, zoning compliance, and inspection coordination. The paperwork nightmare is not your problem.

Full Construction

Site prep through final walkthrough. One team, one point of contact. No subcontractor shuffle.

Outdoor Living

Patios, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, water features. Through ScapesArt, your entire backyard gets the treatment.

The ADU moment is now

Housing costs are up. Multigenerational living is back. Remote workers need space. The math works for everyone.

Most KC homeowners who want an ADU have no idea where to start. They don't know their zoning district, they can't read a site plan, and they've heard enough contractor horror stories to be paralyzed. Tiny Terra Homes removes every barrier between "I want an ADU" and "I live in one."

How it works

01

Site consultation

Julian visits your property, assesses zoning eligibility, lot constraints, and utility access. You get a clear yes or no, plus a scope estimate, before any money changes hands.

02

3D design & planning

Walk through your ADU in 3D video before a single board is cut. Choose your layout, finishes, and features. Stamped plans get submitted for permits.

03

Build & inspect

Construction handled start to finish, typically 3–4 months. All inspections coordinated. You get updates, not surprises. And because we published the price upfront, there are none.

04

Move in or rent out

Your new ADU is ready. Use it as a home office, guest suite, rental unit, or in-law quarters. The ROI starts immediately.

Instant Estimate
