Check out this triple wide trailer.  

I hope you realize that you yourself ending up having to live there was your karma for looking down on people simply for the place they live and their income level. The amount of money someone has or where they live or grew up doesn't determine a person's worth as you surely see now, and as you have seen now anyone can go bankruptcy or lose their job or source of income. I hope you extend that humility towards homeless people as well and don't look down on them either.

Talking about renting land... Oh the irony

@@RealMTBAddict 🤣 We all rent land. You fail to pay your property taxes, bam, you don’t own squat.

@@RealMTBAddict My point is, people will be drowning in debt, in order to have the appearance that they’re doing well. To keep up the facade. Meanwhile, they own nothing. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Sure, they’ll say they own these things, but let em Miss a couple payments and it’s all taken away. When, in reality, they could live in a modest place in order to save money, purchase an older vehicle outright for a few grand, and not owed thousands to Credit Card companies.

Now you just said the truth

The most humble home can be filled with the most joy,love and laughter that a mansion lacks.

I think most ppl think all mobile homes are those small, nasty looking trailer park trailers. I always thought that until I visited my cousin’s mother in law. I was shocked! Then years later my boyfriend’s mom lived in a neighborhood that had a lot of mobile homes. You had to pay attention to see which ones were regular homes and which ones were mobile homes.

My old manager told me when I die I'm going to a big trailer park in the sky. I knew people looked down on us because our trailer was rented and run down, but I own a great trailer now and I don't care if people look down on it because I have an acre of property and a home that I own completely. No one can take it away, unless I don't pay the taxes which is only a few hundred a year. We save so much money, and were so happy.

That was a great place to grow up better then APARTMENT like I grew up in wish I had lived in a nice Mobile Home

@@jobivuvuvfvi605you do know why people look down on mobile homes, right? It’s because for some odd reason the “American dream” made people believe that you had to have expensive homes, lavish cars, and keeping up with the materialistic trends to be happy and ‘provide’ for your family. When in reality, they bought all of that to live in an HOA neighborhood where the community would rather stab you in the back then give you a cup a sugar. They look at mobile homes, they people, the families, and the community where there’s always children playing, always someone holding a cookout, everyone would attack an intruder for their fellow neighbor, families that are thriving, and people enjoying their life to the fullest. The reason people look down upon trailer parks is simply because their miserable and thought money could buy them happiness. They thought them buying their way would obtain them what trailer park communities have. While there are some slumlords that rent out decrepit trailers? Those are few in far between and often times those trailers are rented by people who genuinely can’t afford anything else and a trailer from the 70’s that’s roof is held together by reused plywood is the only thing they can afford - and that’s perfectly okay. Better that then homeless. Even those that live in those style of trailers have more heart, more personality, more genuine character than those I’ve met living in a mansion. However, trailer park communities are often times gorgeous with well manicured lawns, blooming flowers, amazing neighbors, and some communities you couldn’t even tell they are mobile homes. I’d 100% rather live in a neighborhood of trailers if that met my neighbors looked out for me rather than the house I use own that was 2 levels with a finished basement, small ass yard, while it looked amazing, it left me struggling, with neighbors who felt entitled, were racist / judgmental, and couldn’t do anything fun without HOA giving me a fine. The working class or those choosing to live below their means are ALWAYSSSS far more humble than the rich.

I love my moble home Its easy to heat or cool .

That was my fear. Tornadoes.

I guess it depends on the area certain areas don’t experience tornados like that and rarely any hurricanes

I live right outside Raleigh in the apex/holly springs area. We bought a trailer and the lot A LONG TIME AGO, now 540 has bought half my neighborhood (not my half unfortunately 😂) and my property value has TRIPLED. What my trailer (we actually built on to it significantly so it’s no longer a ‘mobile home’) is worth now is what my sister paid for a brand new two story home in Clayton 15 years ago…. It’s crazy how things work. 🤷🏼‍♀️ My condolences on ur parents, and hope Oregon is treating you well. It’s hot and muggy here….. But I’m sure you know that already lol 😂

@@kellygriffin8232 hi 👋🏻 it was so nice to read your comment. Are you planning on selling your place and moving? If you do, where would you move to? Around the same area? I have family that lives in Clayton and Smithfield. The family in Clayton bought their trailer and property (my father actually paid for everything flat out) YEARS ago (for DIRT CHEAP) , I'm talking like the late 80's, and built onto it so it's no longer considered a "mobile home". It was an absolute shit hole. Honestly, it still is 🤣 A LOT of things were done wrong. Wires left exposed, leaky roof, rotting floor, etc., that nobody every cared to fix. They kind of just walked around and/or over the problems. Farm outside and eventually chickens and a baby goat inside kind of shit. Tweaker/drug shit, but nobody did drugs (seriously). The home didn't start out shit hole. It could have been amazing had anyone actually cared about it. Seeing both sides of the "trailer life", I can understand why trailers get a bad rap. Before the trailer in NC, I had never lived in a trailer. And honestly, never really knew anyone who did. The 2 houses that my mother, father and me ever lived in (well, after I was born) were 6 bedroom, 3 story houses. Then we moved to NC (Four Oaks, between 40/42 and Benson), and witnessed all kinds of the stereotypical "trailer trash". BUT, what we also witnessed, which sadly nobody ever talks about, were just as "trashy" houses. Not just in NC either. I've seen "trashy" houses all over the place. But for some reason it's the trailers/mobile homes that get called out. It sucks and it's sad. Okay, sorry I've taken up so much of your time. It was very nice "chatting" with you ❤️ Take care 🥰🥰

@@i_bleed_makeup1187 oh trust me I’ve seen the tweakers. I know plenty of them. And we e had to fix a lot of our problems as well, I guess trailers just fall apart quicker, that’s not to say either care and maintenance they can’t be nice homes though. And I don’t know where I’d move to, to be honest I have prime real estate right here in wake county so after I sold my property I don’t think I’d be able to afford to live here anymore lmao 🤣 but I’ve lived in the 40/42 area as well, that’s where my sister bought her property right off of Cleveland school rd. And it was nice talking to you as well. I’m dreading the heat that’s coming here very soon. lol

❤ LOOKS GREAT PLACE !😊😮😊

I live on the outskirts of Raleigh everything is crazy expensive. Definitely not looking forward to the heat wave coming. A acer or two with a nice 2 bedroomw would be my dream but everything nice is so expensive now. ​@kellygriffin8232

Shout out to you whoever you are exactly I love to see these damn comments because honestly that is exactly how I feel I used to see them and thank gosh I want but honestly know it's ridiculous how people are so damn sensitive and we can't just say what we want to say? If it makes you happy and you like it then that's what you should do if not.. keep going right I don't know what happened I think that we've been asleep for a long time and finally people stragglers are slowly waking up

People feel like they need to explain themselves because other people out there are judgmental and don’t understand

Genuinely I think it’s to inform people who have just never even thought of it. Education like this is the only way to empower the youth and change the culture

Plus they are investing! That’s a WIN!

Because of the term "trailer trash," perhaps?

This is a big pet peeve of mine! They're the same people who claim to want to be "sustainable", but will spend $100,000+ on a brand new tiny home instead of just buying an already existing trailer and remodeling it- for less money! And it's all for status!

@@eMegMBea right. They're following trends.

Question: do you know what the difference is between tiny homes, like the tiny homes that you can move, and trailers? I genuinely don’t know. Once it’s built into the ground isn’t it not a trailer anymore?

@@misaetmi the prices and the connotation.

I don't think it's about the actual trailer home it's about equity. I remember I was so sad bc my husband and I found a manufactured home we loved but bc we were not settling there we couldn't buy it bc we were buying a home for equity purposes. It may build equity but not as well as typical home

My bff and a few other friends lived in trailer parks in the 90’s. Going to their house was the best!! Nobody locked their door and we were welcome to walk into any friend’s house at all hours. We just ran the park from one friends to the other. Swam in the park pool every day. Nobody made fun of anyone for living in the trailer park. All the kids from rich down to not having much hung out together and had fun! Nobody wanted to go the rich friends houses though. They were boring. 😂😂

Still a camper lol

Cozy is exactly why I'm leaving my 2 level home and getting a mobile home. Told my kids they can keep the 2 level home

The bad thing going on here on the southeast coast of Louisiana is that we took a direct hit from the eye of Hurricane Ida and it’s spin-off tornado 🌪️ in ‘21, and had what we thought was the best homeowner’s insurance, but we ended up with 80% black mold damage, $156K in structural damages, and a partially collapsed roof, with giant holes in it, and fallen trees on the house-which meant that we had rats, squirrels, raccoons, lizards, standing water, and ginormous roaches living in our house for so many years,but our insurance company offered us only $29K. After our lawsuit win, all of the insurance companies that write new policies (for mobile homes) bailed out down here! And homeowners insurance has increased 287%!! Nobody can afford homeowners insurance anymore down here, and since there’s only 1 company (Citizens) to write new policies, they can set their own rates sky high! The Louisiana Insurance Commissioner should know that with this situation as it is, that if and when another hurricane occurs, there will be thousands or more folks who will be homeless because of this insurance fiasco!! We just 8 weeks ago got to be able to return to normally living in our now-restored double wide, and we’re so thrilled to be back to normal in our home, but it had to be stripped down to the studs, and mold-treated, had major demolition done, and tree cutting, and several mobile homes in our neighborhood were completely picked up and turned upside down and reduced to kindling! We were blessed with being able (thank God) to have enough home left to rebuild, because there’s many people still living in FEMA or IdaSheltering mini campers! Please, Lord, help us all who have lost so much all over this country and world 🙏❤️🙏

Where did you move to? Ny is so expensive its my dream to own land 😫

Yes...would be great to know what state you settled in as rules/laws pertaining to mobile home parks vary by state. You were very smart to make sure *to buy your own land*! There are some really nice mobile home manufacturers offering some great features like wood burning fireplaces, vaulted ceilings & some high end bathrooms. But no matter how beautiful the home itself might be, it is completely negated by living in mobile home parks who can raise lot rents at anytime by any amount. Besides, much more privacy on your own land & much of the cost can be written off on your annual taxes.

Woah

Our mortgage is $525 on an 8 year plan. We bought it from a public owner that didn’t wanting to rent anymore. Life is good when you don’t let people judgement rule your life.

Yes you can look into it online Jersey has a lot

Literally? So you don't need food, water or employment?

You got scammed my guy. No way you should pay more than 50 for a mobile.

@@SCPMstudios Yep they won't last over 30 years and definitely don't appreciate in value, only the land does.

@@SCPMstudiosyou have to take into account that it IS in a rural area and how much land he/she has. Sometimes it costs more to live in rural areas than cities or towns. I'll never give up country livin' I'll spend extra to stay away from people

@@PatchouliStef You can buy many acres for 100 grand in just about any rural area.

Right on! Home is where and what you make it filled with your favorite people and in my case pets as well. Having somewhere to go is home. Having someone to share it with is family. Having both is a blessing.

Amen!!

Absolutely 💯

Perfectly said!!!

She tells you she pays a lot rent. So if you want to know why it's judged, lol Do you ever see comments where people are upset about people doing things to make money? The lot rent lol is not living below your means .but she blatently lies and says it is A mom who worked in a school or in a hotel or in fast food so on so forth wouldn't be able to afford a lot rent

Congratulations this is such a huge achievement, I hope you are very proud of yourself!! :’)

@@iiz420 hell yes I am, it’s double wide. Three room two Bathroom fence in yard huge front yard. And it’s a small community, next to small airport,

They be so gorgeous. Even the double wide. That's my plan, get land and get a triple wide.

There is a triple wide mobile right behind a convenient store and they had trees put in and bushes and it’s gorgeous. It sits on probably 2-3 acres and is fenced! I love it!

​@@lirosespurposefullove5422I hope it works out for you. It sounds wonderful. ❤

​@@Bhoneyb355I'd love to see it. I see double-wides and their area is also very pretty. Enjoy your weekend!

I don’t think triple wides are super common, the mobile home park I grew up in didn’t have lots that size. I thought my friends with double wides were SO fancy. 😂 We had a single wide where my bedroom was so small that the only way to fit my bed in required my dad to remove my closet door because it wouldn’t open all the way. 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Same! ❤

See on your own land, I can completely agree living in a mobile home is worth it. But in a mobile home community sitting on a lot you don’t own, that can be sold if the owner wants to or decides he no longer wants mobile homes on his property than I see why it’s absolutely not worth it.

@yadirab.c.615 I agree with that, there's usually a bunch of lot fees as well associated.. which I get like the original post has nice amenities included in the cost..however I know of a few parks where they charge a ton, have lots of rules but don't keep up with the property. Etc. I guess the up side is (with some) you can just pick them up and go 🤣 though, most it would be super hard to do so.. it is possible!

Depends on where it's located. I live in a mobile home on a residential street in Southern California. We originally paid $65k in 2010 when we first bought it, and now it's worth over 300k. They definitely do hold value like traditional homes!

@@AlwaysHavingFun951 It all depends on the area. 😉👍🏽

If people want to travel and convert a van to do so let them be!!!

It also depends if it sits on private land

It's still great value if you don't pay extortionist rents and have good quality of living. This house looks great.

"hold fast" (1Thess.5 :21)

Congrats! That’s amazing

Good job! that is really cool and exciting. I don't know, but I am happy for you 😊

This is what I want to do but scared bc of the flooring. Some family members I know there floor starting sinking after 10 years. Is the floor insured of something happens

@@ashleydavis9556aschleighe, you need to inform yourself on insurance and don’t let this small factor keep you from greatness

If you live in a manufactured home park, do you still pay property taxes??

Same with these luxury apartments as well lol . Raised in a trailer currently living in a luxury apartment

It’s not even necessarily people’s own experiences with trailers, it’s the general association with trailers because of movies and tv. The trashiest and poorest people are always portrayed as living in trailer parks and they’re always just a notch above being homeless. I love _My Name is Earl_ but it’s a perfect example of this stereotype. Even _Roseanne,_ which was all about a working class family going through real struggles, had a whole episode where much of the humor was centered on Becky and Mark moving into a trailer park. I know people personally that grew up in the projects or in run down apartments in bad neighborhoods. Yet they _still_ have the audacity to act like trailers are beneath them because the stereotypes of trailer homes and the people that live in them are so bad. It’s crazy.

@@Andy-xx3tt I agree and my comment was eluding to the same notions, however I chose to use my own life experience as my comparison/reasoning as to why many people feel the way they do.

@@Andy-xx3ttto be fair… I live in the second largest city in WA and it’s not a stereotype without reason. Most trailer parks here are nasty crime bags . 😂

That's all well and good but they need to have a hurricane plan. Trailers just aren't built for them.

It’s a great alternative. I’m sure they will be comfortable for a long time. And for those that pay it in full, imagine how great it is to pay so much lower than the rest of the people in that city.

@@NoThankUBeQuiet my neighbor’s house has been there over 40 yrs in Ft. Lauderdale. Dozens of hurricanes and it’s still standing

​@@NoThankUBeQuiethurricane insurance is expensive in Florida.

Usually, from what I heard by my mom 10 years ago, is that you have to have to have the trailers / houses facing the same way as the wind from hurricane

This is false. Modular homes are the same as traditional builds minus being made on site. Manufactured and mobile homes are not even the same, but mostly the same.

Not in florida sadly

This is 1000% incorrect. Mobile homes built today are of a better quality than a mobile home from 1980. But you're doing better getting a stick built home any day. It's not about status or class. It's about safety. If you're riding out a tornado in a trailer, just make sure your life insurance is current.

But you're building equity and can leave something to your kids. You get no perks from owning a mobile home other than the lower cost. In that case you should definitely follow that ladies advice and invest the savings.

​@@reycaribepeople cant afford to eat let alone gaf about equity

She's paying 900 just for the piece of land to RENT. that's not including the price of the mobile home. Don't get excited. 😅

Stock photos

​@@nayjavuyup! And the furnishings in it are new and not cheap. People don't understand that most regular sized homes are the same price as these small new tiny homes.

@@Pakistani_Dramas_Channel it's not she literally took the pictures. You can see her in the mirror. LMAO don't get jealous, cause her mobile home is nicer than wherever you live.😂😂

Trailer trash is a lifestyle, not a location. Trust me: ex-family of mine was the definition of trailer trash, with a slitheringly short rap sheet due to the number of favors she performed so her drug habits were just ... _overlooked._ However, my best friend and her husband started out in his grandpa's trailer, which was dated but kept clean and nice. They're two of the greatest people you'd ever wanna meet. Trailer trash is a title that is earned by criminal and/or unethical choices. Incidentally that ex-family I mentioned? She was still trailer trash in a two-story brick home, too. As I said: it's a lifestyle, not a location or economic status.

100%

More info please

I’m also in California, (Los Angeles native) and we’ve been looking and seeing a lot of really nice mobile home options. It’s the only home we’d be able to afford if we could purchase here.

Your space rent is my trailer note. I live on the Property I grew up on. Thank you Daddy/Mother for leaving us all this property. I never thought I would end up here again but I’m happy and I don’t have to lock my doors.

I wish I can find a place for that much. I'm in California also. Looking to move in a year.

@@sexylexie girl u are living my dream 😭 congrats, that sounds incredible

@@rasheedawilliams4395 you’re never going to find anything cheap in CA. I’m sorry 😞

It depends. I've done electrical work in a few and won't ever again. The wall studs are smaller, thin drywall, cheap everything. I can't tell from these pictures how these homes are but I'll never trust em. Plus it's a depreciating item

​@@26longlongtime well, the majority of my family members left NY & moved to Virginia on our own family land. There are only two homes on that land that are stick built houses & about 8+ mobile homes & I promise you, neither one of my family members who live in the mobile homes has had much work or if any on their home like the two stick built homes. Both stick built homes had to had major work done on their house compare to any of the mobile homes. One of the stick built homes had to get their whole floors re-done after a month of moving in & the list goes on, on both stick built house, these stick built houses are built with cheap materials that sits out in all types of weather for just little over a year just ruining the materials even more. The oldest mobile home on that land is my aunt's house which is about 40+ years old if you were to see a picture of that house it would put the two stick built home to shame no lie! The house is beautiful with all the add ons that has been add on. From my experience over the years at almost 60 years of age whenever I do decide to move south the mobile will be the same route that I will take as well....

Only difference is as a mobile home “owner” you’ll always pay rent, not a good investment always a house 🏡

If only houses were built better. These days u gotta worry about shotty work, construction workers peeing in cups and u later find it behind the walls of these 400+ homes. At least it takes months to build mobile homes than a whole house built in less than a month.😊

Wrong.

Oh I was just saying that that was the greatest thing to do for real estate right now

I love your attitude

I grew up in a single wide and we were very lucky to have been in a place where the lots all had a little yard space, lots of communities don’t. 😭

Here in the Southeastern US, mobile homes seem to be the first casualties of tornadoes, hurricanes, and other weather-related things.

AMEN

How is your floor? My family members have had issues with the flooring like sinking over time

That sounds like a manufactured home and not a trailer. Not sure why young people today do not know and understand the diff 😂
