Tiny home builders and ADU contractors for the Inland Northwest.
Why Choose Tiny Homes?
Brio is a custom tiny home builder and ADU contractor. We design each home for your specific property and build it on-site, on a permanent foundation, and we handle the permits and planning along the way.
At Brio, we believe freedom isn’t measured in square footage, it’s built into every inch of intentional design.
Our tiny homes (ADUs) are designed for people who want more from life by living with less. Whether you’re creating rental income, housing family, or carving out space for what you love, a Brio tiny home gives you options without compromise.
That shift is happening faster than most people expect, and the reasons people are making the switch to tiny home living tend to be more practical than romantic. We build for it across Spokane and Spokane Valley and North Idaho, on lots that range from tight city infill to a few acres outside town.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Get in touch with our team and we will answer them straight.
What does a tiny home builder do?
A tiny home builder handles every part of your project, from the first design to move-in day. Brio Tiny Homes builds custom tiny homes and ADUs on your property. We manage the permits, design, and construction, so you never have to figure it out alone.
Every home we build sits on a permanent foundation, right on your property. That means your tiny home becomes a lasting part of your land, not a temporary structure. Curious what that looks like? Take a look at our current projects to see what we’re building right now.
Can I put a tiny house on my property?
In most cases yes, as long as it sits on a permanent foundation and meets local building codes. Once a tiny home is on a foundation, it is generally treated like any other house, and it can be your main home or an ADU depending on how your lot is zoned.
The specifics depend on your jurisdiction, and they do genuinely differ from one to the next. We check this first, before design and before any conversation about cost. The permit and zoning rules for Spokane County go through it jurisdiction by jurisdiction if you want the full picture.
What is an ADU?
An ADU is a small second home built on the same property as your main house. The letters stand for accessory dwelling unit. It has its own kitchen, bathroom, and living space. It works as a fully separate home, not just an extra room.
An ADU is not the same as a tiny home, though the two often overlap. “Tiny home” describes the size and style of a house. “ADU” describes its role on the property, as a second home on a lot with an existing house. Brio builds both. We construct standalone tiny homes and all three ADU types, always on permanent foundations.
Is financing available for a tiny home or ADU build?
Yes. Brio works with trusted financing partners to offer flexible options, including full financing, no payments until completion, and all-in-one mortgage options for land and construction. Every situation is different, so we recommend starting with a free consultation to talk through what fits your budget and timeline.
What is the difference between an ADU contractor and a general contractor?
A general contractor can build an ADU. An ADU contractor has already been through the permit review in your jurisdiction and knows what the reviewer will flag before anything gets submitted. That familiarity is worth real time and money on a project this size.
