Campervans are a great choice if you want a little adventure with the convenience and low costs.

With petrol prices these days, do you think its still worth buying a motorhome?

Hi there,

Many older people are starting to sell their homes for their retirement and purchase a Motor Home. I’m quite the adventurous type and think this would make for a great travel experience. Its a convenient way to travel, relatively economical and great fun.
I know this because I have done some motor home travel with my friends before.

Motor home travel also seems to cover quite a diverse range of age groups. From the young and adventurous to the retired.

I think everyone should at least try it.

Thanks,

Sarah.

For most people, excess land is a huge time and money drain.

It is a time drain because you will need to spend a large amount of additional time maintaining the property. Even if you have open scrub land, occasionally you will need to remove dead/old growth to avoid fires, etc.

It is a money drain because of the upkeep, taxes and likely distance one must travel for services (shopping, etc.). It also will require more money to bring needed services to the property (electricity, phone, internet, etc.)

Someone considering a large piece of land really needs to consider the overall costs of time and money when purchasing.

Wonderfully said! if you don’t want the work of large trees, shrubs, lawns, etc. go for the least maintence possible.
My wife and I bought a moble home for our retirement and couldn’t be much happier.
The plan is to pay for our coach and then move it to an area where we know there will be little (if any) interest in people settling in that area.
The price of real estate there is way low when compared to the rest of the country, and is only hours from the beach, and our favorite city.
It’s a little off the wall to live there (70 miles to the nearest grocery store), but the air is clean and the traffic almost non existent. James
