        "text": "Yes, tiny homes intended as primary residences almost always require building permits, especially if they are permanently affixed to a foundation. These permits ensure that the structure meets safety, health, and structural integrity standards set by local building codes. Even tiny homes on wheels used as primary residences might require permits for utility connections or as an accessory dwelling unit, depending on local regulations.
