I am sure those are all valid points...however, the fact of the matter remains that in many instances some wouldn't be able to reenter into the real estate market if they grew tired of full timing or had health issues. In the big picture all those expenses you mentioned is nothing compared to 20% appreciation of said real estate. For example-a house that was worth $200,000.00 a year ago is now worth $240,000.00 in many parts of the country-those expenses hardly outweigh appreciation. And this is the last 12 months.
Why do you seem to insist that everyone is going to want to go back to owning a S&B? Not us. Maybe a Park Model before the assisted living, but not a regular house!
And yes, we can fix engine or transmission. put 10% of purchase price of MH into a fund and add to it each month for repairs, maintenance, tires, batteries, etc. 7 years and still having fun!
