Massachusetts S1474 allows moveable tiny houses as permanent residential dwellings and accessory dwelling units.

Massachusetts S1474 mandates municipalities to consider movable tiny houses as a fast-track solution to the affordable housing crisis. These houses, built to the 10th edition of the Massachusetts Building Code, must be affixed to an approved chassis and meet safety and equipment requirements. The Massachusetts Department of Transportation, the Registry of Motor Vehicles, and the secretary of the commonwealth will establish a new category for these houses.
