Thanks in advance!

I don't know if this is true or not but was told it's cheaper to buy a lot somewhere that allows RVs and Mobile Homes (much of FL) and set yourself up. You may not need financing that way. By that I mean you buy a nice lot and have water and electricity and sewer installed yourself. In fact I did that where I live now. Or buy a lot with an old MH on it, get rid of the MH, and set up your RV for the winter. From what I have seen in FL that would be the cheapest way to go. Buying an RV lot in an RV Resort can be very costly and you'll have neighbors right on top of you. And you will have all kinds of rules and regulations about everything from disallowing screen rooms to how many pets you can have to being banned from drying anything outside your RV. It would be every bit as bad as living where there's a HOA.

To me that would be pretty boring if you like the facilities, activities and friendships made in a RV Park type setting, Who would you have Happy Hour with?

However if you are more of a loner that may be just the thing.
