If I were traveling a lot for work I would want a unit that was going to be as reliable as possible, would tow easy and would handle cooler weather well (thermal windows, etc.). I have not owned one but the Bigfoot travel trailers would be one to consider. The 25B25FB may be a floor plan that suits you. You do not get the slide so you will have less room. This will be a more expensive unit but will also recover more when you are done using it and are ready to sell.
Just offering this to make you aware of other options.
Good luck,

There is no such thing as a "reliable RV".
Things break and they break rather easily, RV appliances are not meant for full time use but yet they often cost MORE than a good name brand home appliance.
The OP as will face added expenses like trailer tires wearing out or blowing out, trailer brake maintenance, bearing maintenance, outside lighting ect.
OP will be adding a lot more strain and stress to the tow vehicle, that means tire wear, bearings, brakes, more frequent oil changes and not to mention possible engine or transmission related break downs..
Op would have to have contingency plans for how to deal with a broken tow vehicle with a trailer attached while on assignment.. One breakdown could be very costly and outfits like AAA will not tow a trailer anywhere and even their RV policy basically only pays for towing hookup..
Living out of a RV is not always cheap or fun..
If I was in the OPs shoes, I would find a cheap 10 or more year old trailer for $2K or less.. If you are going to save any money, that IS the only place you will save..
