Then I put solar panels on the roof of it, and batteries inside, then put a well outdoors with the pump inside. I then parked my 30ft camper inside of it lol Weird dream hey?! . |

User ID: 73260527 United States 05/09/2021 08:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Haha. Good catch. $50k starting price now. Plus another $100k to finish it out, foundation, septic, water etc. Then the land. $200k for 800 sq ft house. Sounds about right. What a deal. Feel sorry for young people today. It's no coincidence that the US has record homelessness in this country. Maybe Deagel was right. A record number of Americans will be moving to Mexico (or Central America) soon.

Some come with wiring, no plumbing, and nothing else as far as I can tell. These are good for one or two people as a cheaper place to live. It can be done. Quoting: hankie If you have land that you can build almost anything on, you can find someone who cuts lumber and has a sawmill and buy locally and build your own little by little. You can find older bathroom things like commodes and showers, or tubs, you can buy or build the vanities, the plumbing fixtures have to be bought. Plumbing can be learned if you are good at learning, electricity can be dangerous unless you know a good bit about it. Of course if you want to keep it simple you don't need too much in the way of electricity. You really don't, you can go to gas. Having electricity used to be a luxury. After fining the machine run on water I would say, there is not much in the way of tools and things you use around the house water machines can't handle. The one thing you have to have is warming and cooling, and water to drink and use in your needs. It would be nice if everyone could just have enough water without having to buy it. You are fucking nuts.. I had 2 wells drilled on my property. I don't buy no fucking water. This thread is full of city dumb fucks.. |

They're selling a shell. Quoting: PBJ11 Also need to buy the land to put it on. Already have the land. A decent camper costs thousands and still needs rehabbed. "Y’know they’re schemers.

If they came with the property they're figured into cost. Then there is electricity to run pumps. Property taxes. Lol. County living isn't free. Even if you "own" it outright you're still paying someone else for right to use the land. Unless you dropped a shallow well yourself and installed a hand pump you're paying for water. |

Nothing more than a control mechanism to keep you in line for increased mortgages to the banks. Codes are in places because morans. still no real codes in my area, septic and well is about it, if you are doing your own electrical you must have the box inspected by a licensed Electrician before the Electric company will hook the supply line to it. Some codes in my opinion are good as it keeps Builders from screwing owners over but many places are way over regulated, the fees are all they really want, most inspectors don't really inspect shit but the county and State still get the $$, it's all a money grab! would rather have it & not need it then need it & not have it |

Quoting: Grey Eagle And if you live in a heavy snowfall area, make sure that the rafters provided will support the code-mandated snowloads needed (depending on your property's elevation). If not, then see if they have beefed-up versions availible. In a warm no-snowy area, no problemo, of course. In Arizona you can get those small new 300-400sf Graceland ones for $10-15k, and I saw one (a few months old) WITH coded plumbing and electrical added go for $9998 on CL 2 yrs ago! Just needed to be moved for an extra cost. |
