NEW HOUSING BUSINESS DAY: How Investing with and in Tiny Houses Works
For the first time this year, NEW HOUSING is offering BUSINESS DAY. On the Friday of the trade show, investors, local government representatives, and tourism operators can learn in a concise and detailed manner how to generate high revenue with tiny houses. A particular highlight: exclusive projects will be presented on-site that are ready for immediate investment.
Where can I find plots of land? How do I find the right manufacturers? Which type of house is the right one? And how is all of this financed? Anyone looking to invest in and with tiny houses has many questions to answer. This is often time-consuming and, not infrequently, nerve-wracking.
The Business Day, powered by Fabian Müller of NEW HOUSING, will provide a solution on June 26, 2026, at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Center.
