Interesting thread, and one I look forward to following.
I came real close to buying a trailer to move into when I got divorced. I had the land and had built a barn on it, but that was about it. I decided to live in the barn and work on it 24/7 to make an apartmen along the side of it. For awhile there, I didn't have a bathroom, but it was warm enough outside that I took a shower with a hose and dug a hole for a bathroom. Since I was messed up about the divorce, I really didn't care, so it all worked out. In hindsite, buying a trailer might have made life a little eaiser, but it was good therapy building the apartment.
My current house is onloy 1,000 square feet, and I built it without taking out a loan. One day we plan on building a nice home twice the size of this one, but until then, we're comfortable and appreciative of not having a mortgage.
