if you want to move your tiny house you'll need a truck which can be expensive (gas and repairs as well)

tiny homes aren't legal housing in some states for some reason (zoning laws and tiny houses on wheels)

tiny homes have awful resell values so they lose value fast once they become used

might be a lack of privacy for families with kids/teens

less space than a traditional home
