fieldsportsman 107 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 due to the economic crisis, propertys are harder to buy and money has become tighter, so what do people think of buying an acre or so and plonking a static home on it. how easy would it be to so etc, cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hullhunter 219 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 is a static home not a house or are you talking about a caravan with no wheels 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Simoman 110 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Looked at it back in 1990 and 2009, bottom line is its not easy, land isn't cheap and the main problem is power, waste and legislation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macca 83 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 not as easy as some think ,if it was we would all be doing it.land is cheap £5000 an acre but if you get permission to put a mobile on it then its worth £150000-£200000 around by me easily Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mick c 411 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 im living in a 35ft x12 static on 2acres of land with all electric , gas and drainage and running water its better than being on an estate with moaning neighbours . i get round it by keeping pigs on the land and nothing [NO TEXT TALK] can do. and im not going anywhere else . definately wont be going into any housing estate again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mackem 27,411 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Out of interest how much would something like that cost mick,I have a bit of spare cash but all of the likely smallholdings I looked at online and in mags around dorset and zumerset were £300k+,and that amounts to more than just "a bit of spare cash" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 some of those static caravans are like a home from home.dunno what it would be like in the winter though?they do get rather a lot of condensation.my mate had a belter of a one at loch earn,but what he was shelling out on site fees,he could go on holiday with his wife abroad 3times a year.yea i think id go for a log cabin if it were me.good luck in your venture anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
