Cascade Business News: Anchored Tiny Homes Launches in Bend as Interest in Secondary Space Soars

Cascade Business News reports that Anchored Tiny Homes is coming to Bend, Oregon, and is planning to expand to Portland. The California-based accessory dwelling unit (ADU) building franchise, led by Colton and Shylia Paulhus, has emerged as a significant player in the tiny home industry, focusing on creating ADUs to meet the growing demand for secondary living spaces. 

Anchored Tiny Homes constructs its ADUs onsite, offering a range of design options — from standard floor plans to fully customized solutions — that cater to the diverse needs and preferences of its clients. By adopting a stick-built approach rather than prefabrication, Anchored Tiny Homes ensures that each ADU fits seamlessly into its intended environment, providing an effective solution for adding living space without the complications associated with traditional construction methods.

“We handle the entire process for you from start to finish,” Colton told Cascade Business News. “Starting with the design, then putting together plans and blueprints, getting everything submitted and approved for permits, building your ADU on your property, and hooking everything up to utilities. In the end, you get a completed, move-in-ready ADU right in your backyard!”

With this approach, Anchored Tiny Homes not only contributes to solving the housing crisis by offering affordable living options, but also promotes family cohesion and financial independence by providing additional income streams through rental opportunities. The city of Bend, in particular, has identified ADUs as a key component in its strategy to increase affordable and attainable housing options for its expanding population. 

Anchored Tiny Homes is currently the only ADU franchise on the market. Last year, Anchored Tiny Homes saw significant franchise expansion, selling 61 total territories and breaking into key markets like Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah and Texas.
