location

 

where are your units going?

 

Every project starts with where your units will live. The location helps us determine everything from transportation and access to foundation recommendations and construction requirements. We'll ask about the terrain, road conditions, climate, elevation, how many units are going on site, and how they'll be used, so we can build them to handle the environment they're going into. The more we know about your site upfront, the smoother delivery and installation will be. We're located in Temecula, CA, and deliver across the continental U.S.

UTILITY CONNECTIONS FOR YOUR UNITS

 

Understanding how your unit will connect to utilities helps us design the right systems from the start. Let us know if your project will be fully off-grid or connected to existing services. We'll want to know about power (grid, solar, or generator), water (city, well, or storage tank), wastewater (septic, sewer, composting, or incinerating toilet), and whether any trenching or utility extensions will be needed. The more details you can provide about your property, the better we can recommend the right setup and ensure your unit is ready for installation.

Exterior and interior finishes

 

Once we've finalized the floor plan and structural design, it's time to personalize your unit. We'll work with you to select the finishes that bring your vision to life, including flooring, cabinetry, countertops, tile, paint colors, trim, lighting, fixtures, hardware, and appliances. We'll also discuss exterior materials such as metal siding, cement board, wood, or other finishes. These selections not only define the look and feel of your space but also help us create an accurate timeline and budget before construction begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

are your units ansi certified?

Yes. We can build your unit to ANSI standards and provide the required documentation for an additional certification fee. If your project requires ANSI certification for financing, insurance, permitting, or park placement, let us know during the planning process so we can build and document your unit accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

do you offer financing?

Yes. We work with Koala Finance, which partners with a network of lenders to help find financing options for a variety of projects. If you're interested in financing your unit, we'll be happy to connect you with their team so they can walk you through the application process and available options.

Frequently Asked Questions

what are your lead times?

Our typical lead time starts at 8 weeks, depending on our current production schedule and project backlog. Every build is different, but as a general timeline, we spend about a week building your trailer, another week on framing and sheathing, a week for plumbing and electrical, and one to two weeks completing insulation, drywall, cabinetry, flooring, trim, paint, and final finishes. We then schedule delivery, which typically takes about another week to coordinate.


Delivery is handled by a trusted third-party transportation company. Shipping costs are quoted separately and vary based on distance, route, fuel prices, permits, and current transportation rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I customize my floor plan?


Absolutely. If you already have a completed set of engineered plans, we're happy to build directly from them. If you're starting from scratch, we can design a completely custom floor plan tailored to your needs. Custom design and engineering services are available for an additional fee. All of our floor plans are designed in-house, with Nick working directly with you to create a layout that's both functional and built around the way you'll use your space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need permits? if so can you help me?

In most cases, yes—you'll need permits before placing your unit. Requirements vary by city, county, and state, and some fully off-grid projects may have different requirements depending on local regulations. Little America Homes is responsible for designing, building, and delivering your unit. We do not handle permitting, site planning, or permit consulting, so it's the buyer's responsibility to work with their local building department and secure any required approvals before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. We build each unit to order, so a deposit is required to reserve your place in our production schedule. Your payment schedule will be outlined in your contract. In most cases the deposit is over 50%, with the remainder due shortly after. Because our lead times are quick, this lets us pre-purchase your materials so they're ready when your build starts. For multi-unit projects, we'll walk you through the payment schedule during your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

do you offer a warranty?

Yes. Every Little America Homes unit includes a one-year limited workmanship warranty covering items outlined in your purchase agreement. We take pride in our craftsmanship and build our tiny homes using the same attention to detail we bring to our stick-built homes. Before your unit leaves our shop, we thoroughly inspect and test all major systems to ensure plumbing, electrical, lighting, appliances, and fixtures are functioning properly.


Please note that our warranty does not cover damage that occurs during transportation or delivery. The third-party transportation company is responsible for the unit while it is in transit, and we recommend ensuring the shipment is properly insured. Full warranty terms, exclusions, and coverage details are outlined in your contract.
