Well a neighbor of ours has to sell their trailer ASAP, and he has remodeled the entire inside and I know he keeps it up well....even his yard is perfect. I have never talked to him, but I plan on going there either tomorrow or the next day to see about this.
I don't know if I should try and sell our trailer and buy this one, or just stay put. There are lots of pros and cons to each. Our trailer fits us pretty much perfectly and it's pretty nice. The storage space is awesome. I also LOVE our shed. It was custom built and there is a little workshop in there and we have it arranged just how we like it. However....we still owe the bank for our trailer and by buying the other trailer, we could pay it off in like a month. This guy has throat cancer and he just wants to sell his trailer, so the price is more than right. I love the location of our trailer, because we have nobody on our left, and a single guy who sometimes has his 3 y/o daughter there....he's kinda weird, like stalkerish weird almost. He'd still be near by, but our yards wouldn't join. Also here we have train tracks behind us. I grew up next to them, so they don't really bother me....but it still sort of bothers me to think if Adriana somehow wandered out there some day, she LOVES to watch the trains. The other place has a trailer next door, but nobody lives there, and on the other side there is a middle aged couple who also keep their yard up. They are pretty nice. Also our yard has a HUGE walnut tree in our yard and makes it a pain in the butt to mow and rake. The other place has a nice shaded yard too, but it's not a walnut tree. We have a good sized deck, and the other place does too, but I don't know how big it is, and it's not covered. Neither is ours...but we were just looking into awnings. I guess we could still put on over the other deck.
I know the other place is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom....just like ours. But our bathroom is really big, and we have a laundry room just off the bathroom.
Another thing is I have a huge kitchen, and I love it because our table fits nicely in there, and we have a big counter that separates our living room from the kitchen, and we've got bar stools that we use when we have extra extra company, or when nieces and nephews visit.
I know we won't decide (tho it will ultimately be up to me, cuz DH is just a butt like that, he just goes with the flow)
The main reason we would be doing this is to get rid of the monthly trailer payment. At this point we're ready to cancel phone/internet and probably cable because we have to save money because in about a year from now we'll have to live on 1 income for awhile.
Suggestions? What would you do?
