  • In this unusual episode instead of buying a cheap old car I buy a derelict 1970's mobile home for some reason and bring it back to a livable state, why did I do this? Not really sure but here we go

    I never lived in a trailer and I was born in the 00’s but places like this give me nostalgia. A lot of my friends grew up in places like this

    Good to change things up. If you ever want “ how to “ videos on trailer homes I strongly recommend the green acre homestead UA-cam Channel. They moved their home from NC to TN, plus did a whole bunch of repairs and upgrades to it. I think they do a live feed once a week where they will answer questions too. Keep up the good work!

    Smoke alarms are supposed to be replaced every 10 years, and people don't do that.

      I changed it with a carbon monoxide/smoke alarm combo because that thing was absolutely ancient

    Excited to see the progression of the home Jimmy, awesome vid
    How much did that run you if you don't mind me asking? Never considered mobile homes but my girlfriend lives in one which isn't too bad and the community it's in is pretty nice/friendly. The one you got isn't too shabby and looks pretty comfy :p

      This one is a 2 bed 2 bath and it cost me $19000 cash, I'm about $3500 into renovation thus far and it looks 100x better than it did when I shot this first vid in April, but there will be more vids over the next few months (at least 5 that I've already filmed). Never even considered living in a trailer but the housing market is astronomical so I'm doing this for now basically until the market crashes or lowers lol

      @@robertsmith987 $19000 includes the shed which I sold for $4000 so it brought the total down to $15k but yeah any kind of property is ridiculously high right now because of people flooding into this area from California and other failing states/cities. It doubled the housing prices here in just over a year
