I think property prices will be back up to last years value within about three years so hopefully you aren't stuck in the mobile homes for too long. Good luck. Shame the mobile home isn;t it good condition or you could rent that out as well!<BR/><BR/>LizzieLizzie @ her homeworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18257339462096688164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-64791139807228310082008-07-31T18:46:00.000-07:002008-07-31T18:46:00.000-07:00That is definitely a cute little cabin!

I should write a post explaining it more.<BR/><BR/>For now, I have a house in town which I rent out. I live in a 5th wheel RV (recreational vehicle) which is parked next to an old mobile home that I use for storage. I own 4.5 acres that the RV and mobile home sit on. I do have a truck. I have thought about trading it in for something more fuel efficient but the truck is good for driving on the rocky dirt road that leads to my property and for hauling stuff so carpooling works for now to save money. Work is about 25 minutes away.<BR/><BR/>My original idea was to sell my house last summer but I didn't get any offers and the housing market keeps dropping. I listed it for $187,000 last summer and now it is only worth $160,000 according to Zillow.com. It is worth more as a rental.<BR/><BR/>So, while I wait for property values to go back up, I am concentrating on the mortgage.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading!

I get a bit mixed up because we call things by differnt names over here but do you have some land, a truck, a house which you rent out and a mobile home? or are there more things or less? Is your land a long way from your work? Sorry, I am nosey!<BR/>If I was you I would buy a small car which uses very littlel fuel, sell everything else & build a little log cabin on the land. You can live in it and build on when you can afford it.
