The NW Tiny Homes Difference
A park model is a big decision, and a lot of dealers make it a stressful one. We built our whole process around the opposite. Here is what you get with us, from your first tour to long after delivery.
Support that outlasts the warranty
- You call us first. Always. We are your single point of contact for the full warranty year and we go to bat with the factory for you, so you never chase a 1-800 number or get bounced between the dealer and the manufacturer
- Most dealers outsource warranty work to the factory, who sends whatever contractor is free and puts you in their queue. We do not. Our own in-house team and schedule mean getting you seen is our call, not a call center's
- Same business day response goal on any warranty issue, and same-day priority on anything involving water, gas, or electrical
- When we come out for your warranty visit, we do a complimentary Welcome Home visit at the same time and take care of everything that comes up after transport and settling, big or small, from drywall touch-ups to door and window adjustments. Many dealers charge for this or leave it to you. We include it
- Our support does not end when the factory warranty does. If something comes up later, reach out and we will help where we can
A certified RV, not a permit headache
- A park model RV tiny home, certified to ANSI A119.5 and titled as an RV, so it follows RV placement rules instead of full residential building permits in most areas
- Built in the Northwest by Cavco and Champion, two of the most established factory homebuilders in the country with decades of experience behind every home
- Under 400 sq. ft., compact and flexible enough to place on many residential lots, with property taxes that typically do not rise the way an ADU would
- Delivered fully built, most in 8 to 12 weeks, then placed, leveled, and connected. No months-long build site and no tearing up your property
- We deliver across Oregon, Washington, and beyond, and coordinate the transport and setup so you are not left piecing it together yourself
Customizable from top to bottom
- Choose finishes across the whole home: cabinets, countertops, flooring, paint colors, and hardware
- Several exterior siding styles and finishes, plus optional covered porches
- Lofted layouts available for extra sleeping or storage that does not count against the 400 sq. ft. limit, so you gain room without giving any up
- Window and door upgrades available, from added natural light to entry door options
- Full-size fridge and 30" gas range included on every model, with durable roofing, siding, flooring, and cabinetry
- Add-ons on request: washer and dryer hookups, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and mini-split heat pumps for year-round comfort
Honest pricing, a real person
- The price you see is the price. We publish it right on every model page. No haggling and no surprise markups, just the home price plus the standard taxes and registration fees, which we walk you through before you sign
- Our online estimator prices your exact build before you ever talk to us, options and upgrades included, so you walk in already knowing the number
- Free consultations to help you choose the right model and configuration, plus financing through lenders who specialize in park model loans
- A detailed zoning guide covering every county in Oregon and Washington, and a team ready to help once you reach out
- Walk through real homes at our Portland and Snohomish showrooms, so you see exactly what you are buying
- We are here to help any way we can, and our team will be in touch as soon as we can
Alder FAQ
Common questions
Honest answers to what we get asked most about the Alder.
How tall is the loft?
3'11" at the ceiling. It's not a stand-up space, but it works great as a sleeping area, a lounging spot, or storage. Most owners use it for one of those three.
What's the difference between the Alder and the Hemlock?
Both are lofted models with similar footprints, but the Alder is the larger and more open of the two. It has higher ceilings, a more spacious interior, and a larger kitchen peninsula. The Alder is our all-time best selling model and one of the most popular park model homes on the West Coast.
The Hemlock has a more open loft and less kitchen counter space, which makes it a popular choice for short-term rentals.
How is the Alder heated?
Standard baseboard heat is included. Cadet wall heaters and mini-split heat pumps are both available as upgrades. A mini-split adds cooling on top of heat, which is what most Pacific Northwest owners choose.
How long until my Alder is delivered?
Most Alders are built in 8 to 12 weeks from order confirmation. We'll quote you the exact timeline when you order.
Is the Alder a park model RV or an ADU?
Park model RV. The Alder is built and certified to ANSI A119.5 standards, titled and registered as an RV, and follows RV placement laws in your state and county.
This is different from an ADU, which is built to residential code and follows residential building permits. Park model RVs have their own rules and they're often simpler.
Where can I put an Alder?
Placement follows park model RV laws, which vary by state, county, and city. Common options include private property zoned for RV use, RV parks, and tiny home communities.
We recommend confirming local zoning before you order. We're happy to talk through your specific property when you tour.
Why do people choose the Alder?
The Alder is our all-time best selling model and one of the most popular park model homes on the West Coast. Buyers choose it for its high ceilings, spacious interior, and larger kitchen peninsula.
It's the model people picture when they imagine living in a park model home full-time.
