Selling Houses Australia: Tumby Bay bus, our first tiny home

Welcome to Tumby Bay, although the home on this episode is not really tied to one postcode – because it’s a bus! The Tumby Bay bus renovation was one of our most challenging yet on Selling Houses Australia because there was simply very little room to  move, and the budget matched the floor plan. It was SMALL. Couple Sarah and Tom were in a financial pinch and needed to move on this bus, a snap purchase that Sarah deeply regretted.

Landscaper Dennis Scott and I were very nervous about it, so I think we feel how lucky we are every day.
