My wife and I saw pretty nice piece of property near Jupiter recently. The home on the property was ruined a total eyesore and wreck. I'm curious if anyone on the forum knows if it would be possible to buy the home demolish it, put a concrete pad down and link to existing sewer system and live in our RV for the winter then pull on out for hurircane season. I have not seen or spoke to anyone who has done this so I'm thinking maybe local zoning won't allow it? Looking for more info if anyone has some.
Seems to me it would be an ideal situation we would get a lot right where we want it without the expense of having to build a new home. which we could elect to do later when we can afford it.
I am not saying this is impossible, but we have been checking to do something similar for the last two years in SW Florida and found we could not.
What we have found, after a ton of searching, is a lot in a resident owned park. We purchased it yesterday for a very good price. After a new 1300 square foot manufactured home is placed on it our HOA fees per month will be $125 (water, sewer, mowing). And this lot is located on a canal.
It would have been nice to have found a lot to park our fiver on for a few years and then build, but from what we were seeing that was not going to happen. We will still full time in our RV, the only difference is when we migrate to SW Florida for the winter the fiver will get stored temporarily.
