We are your friendly neighborhood #ADU builder.
Want to build a tiny house in your backyard for a little extra income, or even move into one yourself so you can get a good deal on rent in a hot neighborhood? Go for it! But be warned: it probably won't be easy. Via @aubreydotkom. bit.ly/2DfIxAD

Hi @LISC_HQ we’d love to partner with you in San Antonio to explore @COSAGOV’s proposed #ADU pilot project. We’ve built several right here in SA. #tinyhome #casita

We build with #SIPs because they are both 2x more efficient than sticks and 2x faster to construct. Day 3 of this build. #greenbuilding #sipspanels #sustainable #infill

Thank you @sanesatx for organizing yesterday’s excellent #futuresatx forum on growth in San Antonio. It was refreshing to hear the variety of perspectives on the challenges and opportunities created by #infill development. teapaw.org/sanesatx/status/100703…
#futuresatx forum begins; what density and housing issues in SA are you concerned about?!

Let’s build #ADUs not parking spots teapaw.org/sanesatx/status/100704…

66 people are moving to SA everyday, our beloved city is growing & changing. What do we want the SA of tomorrow to look like? How will we accommodate our future #housing, #infrastructure, & #transportation needs? Join us 6/13 for an engaging conversation on these topics.

Stain grade birch plywood makes for a pretty sexy finish don’t you think? At roughly 2,200 square feet, this mixed-use building in the Texas Hill Country is our biggest project to date.

We’ve got a pretty good idea...lots more accessory dwelling units, aka #grannyflats #adus #alleyflats #casitas - by building dwelling units on existing lots you save both time and money making that housing more #sustainable and #affordable. teapaw.org/sa2020/status/10040749…
As @SmithsonianMag notes, housing hasn't kept up with fast-growing populations. Looking forward to policy from Mayor's Housing Task Force's on how to keep America's fastest-growing city livable & affordable. #SATX smithsonianmag.com/smart-new…

We had a great time showing off San Antonio to our friends @thenextseed today. If you’re a passionate #entrepreneur with a well developed idea, you should definitely check them out. #Crowdfunding #fintech cc @BreakFastLaunch teapaw.org/thenextseed/status/971…
NextSeed Founder and CEO, Youngro Lee, was featured on @CrowdfundInside today: "There is no doubt in our minds that in 10 years, small business financing and #investing will look nothing like what it is today." #fintech #crowdfunding nextseed.link/bankloanaltern…
