SCRUBS... MY FACE WITH MY DAMP WHAILE HANDS..... I might be able to take on ownership of our trailer but I also don't know enough about that kind of thing to make an informed decision......... adulthood is full of challenges,
duck bastard
my first thoughts are whatever property tax there would be, you're already paying utilities, right?
BANNED CLOWN
We are already paying utilities, and we'd still be paying LOT rent but the trailer on the lot would be ours
duck bastard
hmmm

I can ask Eric's moms opinion later, she's a tax accountant
BANNED CLOWN
That would be nice.... in either case we'd have some repairs we wanna do, but in one case it was also pointed out that we could sell it and move into like.... a HOUSE but idk
Rowan
The issue is that over time, the trailer will go down in value while houses get more and more expensive
Rowan
If you were going to make a big housing purchase, that's probably not what you want from it

: Well, yeah, I figured tbh and I didn't push it because that isn't really our plan/goal. But I also don't know when or how we'd acquire a fucking house anyway so that's not really... a BIG concern. As much as I'd like to do that, we're not going to likely be able to buy a house on Joe's Kroger salary and my disability payments LMFAO
Rowan
Yeah, I'd just really worry about if lot rent goes up a lot but you own the trailer so you can't just move
Rowan
But idk I'm not a housing expert or anything
BANNED CLOWN
Well the good news is we have reasonable cause to believe that's not... going to happen here, for reasons that range from "this park is mostly made up of old people who have lived here forever" to "we have management that literally offered to work with people when the pandemic happened because they weren't going to evict anyone over rent"
Rowan
That's great then, for as long as that management stays in charge. It's Joe's family or something, right? So you would at least have some kind of insight into whether or not they're struggling with it or considering selling it?
BANNED CLOWN
The guy we'd be buying the trailer from is Joe's uncle; the landlord is a guy he's friends with SDKFSA

my only experience is uh. owning a house through complicated means so I'm not sure :|a like comparing how much it would cost to take on ownership/lot rent vs trailer rent
