Tiny Homes
Discover the perfect blend of size, comfort and style with our full customizable, state-certified tiny home designs.
We're Certified. They Aren't.
Missouri State Certification* is rare. That means our tiny homes (unlike the other guys) meet rigorous, residential-level standards for durability and safety. Our buildings are easier to finance, easier to permit and easier to justify your hard-earned investment.
Built Like a Home—Not a Shed
Engineered to residential standards for long-term durability, fewer issues, and less maintenance over time.
Our Buildings Hold Value Like Real Property
Built to appreciate like a home, not depreciate like a temporary structure.
Banks Understand The Difference
Lenders are more willing to finance certified homes, giving you more options and better terms — not just cash or specialty lending.
Permits Without The Headaches
Certified modular homes align with local building codes, helping avoid delays, rejections, and red tape.
Financing available for qualified buyers. Curvin Huber is a licensed real estate broker in MO.
"Backyard was phenomenal to work with. We can’t say enough about them. Their team. Their whole operation. First class."
Smaller. Stronger. Smarter.
With less space to maintain, lower monthly bills, and the flexibility to place your home where you want -- our certified, modular homes are just a smarter investment.

Financing Your Tiny Home:
While our standard storage buildings and sheds often qualify for our convenient Rent-to-Own programs, the specialized nature and higher value of our State-Certified Tiny Homes typically require traditional financing.
Because these designs are built to residential standards, most customers find success securing funding through personal loans, or traditional credit union financing. While Backyard does not provide direct financing for these units, we are happy to provide the necessary documentation and certification details your lender will need to process your application.

Our tiny homes come with fully insulated ceilings, floors, and exterior walls, keeping you comfortable year-round. Combined with the included 1.5-ton HVAC system (with electric backup), your home will be cozy from day one.
We deliver using a truck and trailer, which typically stays parked in your driveway or on the road. From there, we use a specialized machine called a "mule" to maneuver your building to its final destination. This allows for precise placement while causing minimal yard damage.
