First, and foremost your home is NOT UGLY! The work you've done on the inside is beautiful! As far as the outside... porches, garden, flowers, etc, when you're settling in, it too will be just as beautiful! Blessings for a wonderful life and adventures in your new home state! Love from Arizona! 🌞🌵😎

Agree 100% with Francine! Just think about it: which is uglier? The outside of your home or that huge mortgage you would have in a sparklingly beautiful palace? E-Z!!! That mortgage is WAAAAY uglier. So, it seems that y'all are okay with living there as you settle in to the new place and make everything YOUR homestead; thus, just press forward, leaning upon God's divine wisdom as you do so, and realize that the reward for your wise actions will far outweigh some "ugly factor."

In this day and age, avoiding debt is SMART!! It also helps that your home is practically new on the inside AND you have a solidly built leak proof roof. What a blessing! Saving all of the wood and materials from NC saved you thousands of dollars in today's market. I'm sure that is a comfort to you. Have a good and safe Easter weekend.

I would say to people...it gets me where I'm going!!! People think what they think & they are not afraid to let their attitude show, sometimes. I do not find your home to be ugly. You both made all the right decisions for your family. You have "peace of mind"!! That's priceless! I love your channel!! God Bless.

Whoever wanted you to sell and just buy new must have more money than they know what to do with. Do you think it will all be finished by the end of summer? Hope so for your sake.

I am really glad you didn't listen to other people, and did what was best for your family. There is nothing like having a lot of debt hanging over head. In my late sixty's, and during the housing bubble I lost my high mortgage home. I found a 600 square foot home for 1,500.00, and it needed a lot of work. People thought I was crazy, but I had lost my job, home. Today at 75 I am debt free, and I wish I had known all this when I was younger. I applaud your wisdom, and God bless your family.

My mom sold me her double wide and 10 acres of land with a 24x50 steel building for 40,000. She then bought a new mobile home in 1993 and placed it on the this property also. She lived in it until she passed away and I inherited it. I then gave it to my son. Its in very nice shape with a 14' covered porch on the front. From the sounds of these prices maybe I should have sold it to my son instead of giving it to him. lol

I remember a line from a movie called "the money pit" where Tom Hanks walks into his unrestored home and says "ah home crap home". Sam/Angela it will all be worth it when it's all done. Best part is that you are doing it out of pocket and not borrowing the money for it. If for no other reason that will make it all worth the effort.

We are about to pull out the central air and install mini splits. We are 2 yrs from buying land. We don’t want a large note so we plan on paying down 80% when we find what we like. My parents are even selling their paid off brick home and buying a mobile home! I grew up in that 5 bedroom 2 bathroom home. Taxes and insurance are HIGH for that home. My taxes are $62.95 a year. House insurance is $74.

My daughter and son in law just purchased land and a double wide 3 years ago. The guy doing the septic told them that, if it were him he would definitely not go with pumping the septic uphill because the pumps are constantly breaking, lines are always clogging up, and it's a big headache dealing with them! He advised them to move the site of the septic instead. Just something to think about and please talk to several companies that install septic systems that way you know what you're getting into.

You could only hope to get an honest company to do the work like in your daughters case. Most contractors are only looking to make the most they can and then not disclose the maintenance costs which will probably be just more money in their pockets. I so hate having to get work done, I am a witness to how they'll take you to the cleaners if you're not careful.

In our state a soil test and septic design is done by a septic/plumbing engineer, not the contractor. Contractors install according to the design and specifications. You can't just put a septic anywhere on the property. The soil has to have adequate drainage, etc.

New to your channel... I support your reasons and explanations. The journey of living within your means, making improvement, but being content in the process is a most valuable life lesson. We raised and homeschooled 9 children in a very dilapidated farm house. We worked on it as we had time and $, but enjoyed living in the process. It took us 25 years to reasonably call the home complete. Our renovations had no master plan, we just lived. Needing to expand the space for the growing family, we chose to add 2 bedrooms. When we completed the addition our living space had multiplied! We started with 1800 SF and finished with 4600 SF. We tore down about 25% of the house we purchased, rebuilding that portion larger in the house expansion project. The 2 bedroom addition vision morphed into 5 additional bedrooms, enormous living room and kitchen space and allowed us to repurpose the original house portion. We also gained workshop space in the additional basement. In the early part of the journey we labored under excessive debt, but freeing from the debt and in that process, we did the additions and renovations with cash. When we started, we had the soriest home in the rural neighborhood. When completed, it had turned into the grandest home in the area. We never intended to live in such luxury that we enjoy today. Our plan was to invest in our children and guide them to love Jesus Christ. Our home was ugly for 25 years, no siding, many unfinished rooms, no porches, but contentment marked our happy home. Two old people don't need our big home now, but hospitality is our vision and entertaining guests is part of our daily life. The big home comfortably accommodates our growing brood. 34 grandchildren (currently expecting 2 more!) are in and out of home on a weekly basis. We can seat 50 folk in the dining room, meaning this past Christmas was our first family meal that mandated a table in another room (that was a sad day for Grandmother, who likes the family around "one table".) Folk that is meet us now assume that we have enjoyed affluence for a very long time, but our comfort is less than a decade. There is great ease when it is all finished, but the years of want and struggle were very happy years. We shared a common goal and purpose, and embraced contentment along the journey. My mind can remember the years of struggle with clarity, but my emotions cannot. While we enjoy our current ease, I trust that contentment would reign if we lost it all. I feel that God has generously blessed us with abundant stuff and comfort, because we didn't demand it. Our purpose was to love and to serve Him, to do that during the journey and to do it now when it is easy to offer hospitality. Last year my wife supported me building my dream workshop. This building is larger than our home and I am pretty certain that its cost rivaled what we spent to do the house. An old man can never justify this outrageous expenditure for hobby pleasure, but my justification is augmented by having the men and boys in my brood working alongside me building relationship and exploring new skills. The majority of my family joins us weekly for supper and Bible study. Filling up our "big room" with my family and wrestling with and exploring God's Holy Word together is the highlight of our week. I retired young when my coworkers couldn't conceive of retiring. Most of them were 2 income homes. We lived on only 1 income. It was a struggle to dig out of debt around age 50, but living debt free is such a blessing. It also enhances the ability to develop the gift of generosity. I applaud your efforts. I love easy TN. I was saved and met my wife on Lookout Mountain outside of Chattanooga. God bless your endeavors.

Even give yourselves a bigger 'great' room as and when you want to. Don't let anyone tell you anything different. Do your own thing. I think I have told you earlier that I believe your new land gives the boys a better chance to have a better way to grow up. After tutoring get them outside playing and get friends over too.

Stop dissing that lil' home of yours, it's not ugly! You should see our house, the side away from the road never did get sided in all these years. We've been here since 1991, and sided it about 5 or 6 years in with recycled siding. The backside is still the foil-backed foamboard, 'cause we ran out of siding. So from the park across the RR tracks (right by the house) it's shiny, and the other three sides are a nice sandstone-colored siding, haha! It doesn't bother us any! It's all paid for and it's ours. 😍

We moved our single wide mobile home about 4 years ago. It was across town in the same county (also in WNC) not even a mile away. We paid $12,000. We did all our own plumbing and electrical. Then we had the county inspector to come and approve our work. I was pregnant at the time. I vividly remember working outside in the snow with temps in the single digits building the front and back porch back to code. We had to wait the longest on the power company to wire us a new line and hook up. We lived in a hotel for 2 weeks with 2 toddlers. Oi.....good times. But we own our home, with no mortgage/rent and that pay off is so worth it. I'm so happy your family had that same kind of opportunity.

Your house isn't ugly at all and moving something that you own outright is freakin smart

I think it was a great choice to move the trailer with everything you already have into it vs starting fresh. You couldn't get what you have for what you put into it....people just don't understand the concept. I get it 100% and actually it's YOUR BUSINESS! I love that you are so open about your choice but I hate that you feel you need to address the questions but I get it. People want to know.

I don't think the house is ugly. It is a safe, clean home and the outside will get done. The inside is well done and charming. I would happily live in it. Your financial and life choices will stand you in good stead.

You both did the absolute right thing to keep your home!! The time and money you’ve put in to your home is absolutely PRICELESS! I bought a mobile home about 9 years ago for $18,000! (Cash) I’ve renovated the entire thing over that time. With the current prices, you couldn’t pry me out. I live in rural Maine. My only regret is that I currently have it in a park. Because the location is very rural…. I have a huge lot and wonderful neighbors. I can guarantee you, if I were to buy land, my mobile home is coming with me!! Haha 😂 God bless you and your family. I look forward to continue to follow you all with your journey. Your family continues to inspire me ❤️🙏

You kids are SO SMART to have a debt free mindset. That makes a huge difference in quality of life imo. Your home is NOT ugly; like you said you’ve just not worked on the outside yet. Speaking of your history working on your home, I started watching you when you made that spice rack and little shelving area in your kitchen. Then you started organizing kitchen and next thing, you were renovating the kitchen! lol. Sam I know you call that “project creep” 😄 Looking forward to watching your TN life bloom. 💛🌷💛

To me, it's more about the tidiness of the property than what kind of house is on it. Large homes can be trashy, and trailer homes can be clean and tidy. I'm more impressed with the trailer house/home in that situation.

We bought a major fixer upper mobile home needs to be completely gutted so we could be debt free. We could buy the mobile home without interest and fix it up as we go with no interest. Most people pay 3x the price they got the loan for. The land is the only thing with a loan and we could pay off in a year or two . Debt free is the way to go. We’ve paid way over what the loan was for on our current home and still have over 15 years on the loan. You live and learn:) awesome choices guys love your home💗💗
