The ‘Down’s of Micro-Homes

Imagine living in an apartment the size of an Underground tube carriage. It has all the utilities of an apartment. It is just smaller. And cheaper.

Micro-homes are a solution for those wanting to live by themselves, but without necessarily having a big budget to let or buy a home.

More than 8,000 micro-homes were built in 2016 and it was a record until now. The demand was high enough to convince developers to keep on creating micro-homes in the UK.

However, more and more voices are starting to talk more about the downs of these types of properties. One of the biggest problem is their value that will surely not grow once with time. More aspects about micro-homes to take into consideration have been discussed by specialists in this article on Property Reporter.

Also, keep in mind that London already has some of the smallest sized properties in Europe.
