Housing

We've been mulling around the idea of buying a motor home to live in since renting out here is the most difficult thing we've experienced, and then I was sitting outside the hospital today, waiting for Sarah and a lady walked up and struck up a conversation with me. I was going through my spiel about how we just moved here and we're having trouble finding housing (we have 10 days left in our current place). She told me that our best bet would be to buy a mobile home. They are cheap, and she said that's how she started and now she lives on the peninsula by the beach. The idea sounded good to me. I had tried to talk Sarah into this earlier in the month, but she shot the idea down (she says I just didn't sell the idea well enough).

When Sarah came back to the car I told her what the lady said. She was on board. So we jumped online when we got home to scope it out. Lot rent is under $400 a month here, some places closer to $300. There are also plenty of mobile homes under $25,000. We called an agent with a listing we were interested in to get the ball rolling....here we go!
