I am in the process of building a tiny home next to my house.
The plan is to have someone live next to me who can help when I can no longer take care of myself.

“I am in the process of building a tiny home next to my house.”

In Florida it’s possible to have a “mother-in-law Suite” that’s a free-standing home on your property. I’m told that when you do this they check to see if there’s a blood relationship with whoever moves in. There’s nothing about this not being used as a rental after the builder moves out or dies. But as far as permits go, absolutely not. If you’re building this in a or close to a highly regulated single family home neighborhood then the county can order you to tear it down. Please make certain you haven’t sabotaged your future with an unlicensed construction.
