International Building Code gives the smallest house permittable as 650 sq.ft. That's the rule that tiny homes have to fight against. Different areas have modifications of that square footage, but that's the code most go by. We currently live in an 800 sq.ft. house, and honestly, we have three areas we barely use.

I love houses this size - but as the owner of an older 864 sq ft 2 bed 1 bath home (with an attached 624 sq ft shop/garage) I am biased. My main bedroom is a bit larger at 12’ x 15’, but this model has a larger family room. I am in the process of building a new 8’ x 22’ post and beam gabled front porch to capture the view out of my 8’ x 4.5’ picture window. I’m older, it’s just me and I think this is the perfect size. I use the second bedroom as an office.
I really, really like this one for retirement. I didn't expect it to have a pantry so was thrilled to see it.
203,000 dollars for a 900 sq. ft. house? you've got to be joking. No way would I pay that much for that little house.
I live in just under 900sqft. 3 bedrooms 2bathrooms....raised 5 kids plus all the other kids that have ended up here over the years. It's actually a good size. (Granted I would love more bedrooms)

That size isn't too bad. We've lived in similar sizes for quite a while. We even fit our multiple hobbies. When they get too much smaller is when tiny houses become far less practical. Yeah they're cute and cozy, but unless you only play chess or read there just isn't enough space for a permanent situation.
Thanks for the tour, very nice house. The price seems a little high for the size but I guess it depends on the location.
200,000 ?????? Not in your life for 900 Sq Ft. I have 1250 Sqft. with 3car garage in Houston on a little more than a 1/4 acre and valued at 160,000.00
My house is 960 sqft, 3br 1bath. 10x12br, 10x10br, and a small 7x10 or so that I use for a den(for lack of a better word). 10x15 kitchen and 11x19 LR. It's a little different layout, one br off the kitchen. I like the layout of this one better. Add a carpet on the side and a nice 1000sqft shop next to it, perfect for retirement.
