A welcome to NH community

[E-ville]

Any one think this is a good idea?

I'm preparing to move to NH in a few years, part of the prep is were outfitting a large travel trailer as a way to come visit next year and temporary home so we have a place to live when we build once we move.

I thought this was a very good idea, for people that want to move, get a larger travel trailer that will work as a home and use it as a home till you find a place, our trailer cost about $5000 and its really quite nice and very livable for the 3 of us..  were adding some add ons to make it really home like and were also making it off grid so we literally can go anywhere and be very comfortable.

But I was thinking what about others that need a place to stay till they find what there looking for for housing or land.. or for a place to setup camp when they visit..

What if I started a welcome community for FSP members where they too could park or camp out, till they find there home or land..

It would most likely be a rural wooded setting.. I'd envision it to be like a rural rv park / camp site for FSP movers/visitors that need some assistance getting on there feet.

Any one else considering a temporary home of a RV or camper, tent, or yurt.. that simple needs a place to "setup camp" for a while??

We've thought about it. It will depend on the time of year. We have a 24' travel trailer, which is workable for the four of us for a week or two. We also have an ever-changing menagerie (currently five dogs, four cats, one parrot, one rat, one turtle, and a 55 gallon aquarium full of tropicals). Obviously we can't do us and all the critters in a trailer.

If we buy land, I imagine we will build an insulated shop/barn, and live out of that while we build the house.

We got a parrot too, African grey.. he's a hoot, they talk alot, says stupid stuff all the time.. we also have a dog and cat and some fish, the fish would have to go.. the rest would stay..

Our travel trailer is a bit bigger and we bought it specifically with the ideal that we will be in this for up to a year, it's a 31 foot has a master bedroom, living room, kitchen/dinning area, 2 bunks in the rear for our son and a bathroom.. were adding a compact all-in-one washer/dryer unit in one of the bunks for convenience and making the rest of the bunk into storage.

The shop idea is one we also considered.. were probably going to do a papercrete structure and be totally mortgage free build it as we can afford, with papercrete a 1000 sqft shell will cost about $1500.. totally doable with even the worst of wages..  Were depending on nothing and working on the ideals that we will move, and find a crappy McJob, and need to live off that.. anything over this will be icing on the cake..  Were also making the move to only me working, my wife will be retiring when we move.. at the age of under 35.

We basically want out of the rat race and want a simpler life style that concentrates on our family and our freedom and doesn't concentrate on our jobs as it does now. We both love out jobs but there to demanding to really enjoy life.

My motto is aim low and you'll never be disappointed

depending on where a location is, setting up somewhere people could park their RVs when their are graduations other events etc etc could be a decent way to make some extra money if someone has some free land, just get plots set up...could be a decent investment...then you could let porcs stay for an awful lot cheaper



what are regulations about trailers/manufactured homes generally like in NH? I know it is by town, but where I'm from you can't move a trailer that isnt soever new, and can't put a manufactured home that isn't brand new on a plot of land which isnt a trailer park (and my parents own the only trailer park in town besides a shitty one next to the river downtown and all of these politically involved types in town want to buy the land out from under them and not give them anywhere to move their trailers too (and these are the poorest people in town who incidentally are more likely to buy food at local stores etc) and are being hostile towards my moms desire to set up another trailer park to move all of them to...and then they want to treat her like some sort of bad person for being a capitalist (let me clarify: the trailer park which she doesnt own is the one the city is trying to get the land for, the people who live there own their own trailers, and my mom wants to build a new trailer park to move them all to (which incidentally wont be somewhere where it is an eyesore like it is no) and the city council etc are being dicks.

Sounds like a cool idea
