After 9 years on the road, we are sharing our secret to staying in an RV so long. We have stationary RV living spots that we go back to to feel at home. We don't own houses, but the properties are designed for RVs and allow us to come and go easily. Take a tour of our Florida lot, which we sometimes visit in the winter. Also, at the end of the video, join us to watch a Falcon 9 rocket launch because Tom is a space nerd.

We did a similar thing thanks to C19. We always thought our RV was our safety net but the pandemic made us realize it was also an albatross because there was minimal RV storage options around our home in Denver. We bought a lot in Mission, TX in a park similar to yours (RV park turned residential) that has RV sites as well as mobile home sites and several stick and brick homes. We have a clubhouse, many activities, a pool and hot tub, billiards, shuffleboard, workout room and 7 other parks within a short golf cart ride that welcome us for any of their activities. Best part is our HOA dues are $350 a year. We love it here and spend 5-6 months here ever fall and winter.

I'm skeptical of HOA, can you ell us what you get for your money and do you have any guarantee that it won't go up a lot, as I've heard from others.

@roger80465 3 ай бұрын

@@k1ghz960our HOA gets us a clubhouse, a pool, jacuzzi, weight room. We also have numerous entertainment and dances every month during the winter season. Our dues stayed the same for approximately 10 years before finally going up $50 a year last season. Yes we may be a bit unique. HOA fees will increase because costs increase. But, $350 a YEAR is nothing

Great video! We too purchased 2 RV sites side by side in a slice of Heaven in a place called Star Valley in Wyoming. We have steadily developed them over the last 15+ years from a a patch of dirt to a peaceful meditative sanctuary. It has been hard work but rewarding. It’s nice to have a “home base” of our own to come back to in between all the travels. Been full timing for well over 22 years and our happy place there gives a nice break in the routine from early May to mid October. Then back on the road! Keep up with the great videos!

@@rougeroadie1193 I am very sorry for the late reply. Have been away from the internet for a while. We found ours through our travels. Our initial one was at Tiger Run at Breckenridge, CO. Years later we located our next purchase at Star Valley in Thayne, WY. However, there are specific Facebook groups where you can see lots for sale all over the USA and you can find some very good deals now and then. I will say that our Star Valley, WY lots have been the best thing ever. Absolutely perfect weather, all kinds of outdoor activities at our fingertips, within short range of a ton of amazing destinations, and most importantly, no bugs! If you are heading out that way, give us a shout and come by and see us.

Hello from Phoenix, Arizona. I just came across your channel and I’m only a few minutes in the video. I gotta say though there’s something soothing about watching these RV channels I don’t know what it is. I watch Bob Wells and some others, but I am such a homebody I like having my own space in my own home, but I want to be out in nature and seeing different places. I think you guys are talking about here is probably the best of both worlds having your own land your own place you can go to and have a homebase but being able to just drive away in itand you got a place in the north and in the south so you can beat the weather no matter what season I’m looking forward to watching your other videos. Thank you.

We bought an acre in florida outside a small town 10 minutes to the gulf. We put electric, sewer and water on the lot ..have a little barn that has a dryer and extra refrigerator in and there is a washer in the camper as well . We put our 40 ft fifth wheel on it ..we winter there and go back to our home in the spring before it gets deadly hot ... it cost a little bit to do this but we did a little at a time ...

That area is a slice of Heaven...built up enough for a good range of services and amenities yet still has that old-time rural Florida vibe. I recall seeing one of the last shuttle launches from a parking lot in Boca Raton. Amazing as it was a very clear, bright day, and the plume was so large it could easily be seen with the naked eye 140 miles away. Congratulations on having such versatile properties that let you have a home base yet give you the flexibility to travel.

@@MortonsontheMove - Very much so...I was fortunate it was such a clear sky. I also saw a shuttle launch from 37,000 on July 4. I was flying from Miami to Spain via Atlanta and the pilot had to stay clear by flying over Tampa. The air being thinner at altitude made for some incredibly clear views. Such a patriotic moment and all the passengers were exchanging email addresses for photos. I'm sure you'll have more opportunities in the coming months.

So glad that YT suggested your channel this am! Six generations of my family have lived along the FL east coast since the early 1950’s, but I was the first born here. My father was a rocket engineer and we moved up from Palm Beach to the Space Coast in the early 60’s and two more generations were born here. The “anti FL hate” used to upset me, but with over 300,000 moving here annually - I encourage it! As you’ve already discovered, the secret to comfortably living in this hot muggy state is to never live more than a couple miles from the ocean (the Atlantic, not the Gulf). The constant sea breeze keeps the air always moving and the bugs away. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend bringing your RV up to Jetty Park Campground at Port Canaveral. Space X launches at least once a week and you’ll be able to see lift off! Also, front row viewing of cruise ship traffic at the world’s 2nd busiest cruise port. I look forward to watching more of your videos.

Great idea having your summer and winter bases to enjoy while not moving down the road. We live in Temple, TX and SpaceX has a facility in McGregor about 40 miles from us. We hear the testing of rocket engines from that distance. They mount them on a gantry and then run them for about 10 minutes as they are getting them quality tested to put into their rockets. Pretty neat to hear the roar of the engines and if you are near McGregor you get to see the light show as well. Really like your Florida digs...y'all have fixed it up really nice!

We’ve been looking for a chunk of land somewhere in between that we can keep our tiny home full time with all of its own hookups and permanent deck/patio. Until then, the idea of this permanent RV spot has piqued our interest. I guess my only question is how would we go about finding something like this?

We use a tow dolly behind the motorhome :)

That's awesome!! We actually saw a falcon heavy from Tampa once, so I think most of Florida can see them if it's clear enough. They go high enough :) lol

What part of Florida? I live in Michigan and would love to find an RV lot to buy in Florida

@ernieb3626 4 ай бұрын

Looking for property in Michigan. We live in Bay City Michigan now. How far north did you have to go to find property that you did not get hassled about living in an RV? Upper peninsula?

@MortonsontheMove 4 ай бұрын

Yes we are in the UP, each township will be different, our property is just classified as agricultural buildings since there is no house.

how do the costs compare to campgrounds? ($30-$50 night). Are there equipment requirements? (RV has to be < 10 years old)

How would someone go about looking for a spot like that to buy? That looks like the best idea! Hubby is from Florida and I know this would be a great option for us when it's time to go visit family ❤

A search for RV community on google might pull some up, but if you are looking in a particular area look for RV lots for rent or sale by owner on facebook marketplace and you will usually find some of the communities that are not listed elsewhere, then you can research it more. Sometimes it can be a bit tricky without knowing the area, we stumbled across this one.

We're FT RVers who don't own any property because we believe that this makes us a target for the tax man. With the last property we owned in Louisiana, our property taxes jumped 1,000% one year after doing a few improvements and the property being reappraised. I sure hope this doesn't happen to you. We can winter over in a nice FHU RV park in the RGV in Tx for only $170/mo. + electric. Since we have over 5,000 watts of solar on our MH we don't even connect to the electric pedestal. We also like to winter over at the LTVAs in the Yuma, AZ area for only $180 for the 7-month season, which includes unlimited water, dump and trash disposal. That comes to only 86 cents a day if you stay the entire season. I'm sure your property taxes alone are many times that small amount. Ours sure were. Another concern is owning property in a state you're not domiciled in. Will the state income tax people try to claim you are residents of the state, since you own property there and live there at least part of the year? Florida is safe in this regard, as they have no state income tax, but owning property in other tax hungry states, like California, might be problematic.

@MortonsontheMove 4 ай бұрын

All valid concerns and need to be evaluated for sure. We are expecting re appraisal on our northern property but local taxes are really low and because its not "livable" its far lower. Thanks for your thoughts however as im sure that could help someone else thinking of buying.

No state income tax in Florida.

@knutblaise9437 4 ай бұрын

I’m guessing “home” insurance and property tax must be pretty low with such a lot when compared to a single-family home. You still get to live close to a FL beach but you’re not hammered by the hurricane inflated home insurance and higher property tax rates. Also, if you’re domiciled in FL $0 state tax is quite the nice perk. I would say enjoy life but you obviously are 🙂

@MortonsontheMove 4 ай бұрын

Lol, you are correct, we only pay a small liability insurance since we rent, but no insurance otherwise. Tax is probably high compared to the size, but its still insignificant compared to a home. Overall its probably one of the most affordable ways to live this close to the beach (and low hurricane risk)
