Here’s where I drop the bomb. You don’t own the land. The town keeps the land. You just buy the house and pay a tiny monthly lease for the dirt.
It’s like buying a very slow, very stationary car. You can’t drive it, but you can nap in it.

And the lease? It’s $200 a year. That’s less than my phone bill. For a whole year of having a roof over your head.
But Is It Actually Livable?
Short answer: yes. Long answer: if you don’t mind cozy. “Cozy” is a real estate word for “please don’t invite your in-laws over.”
You have to be okay with minimalism. Not the cool Instagram kind with white couches. The real kind where you only own three plates.
There’s a tiny kitchen. You can boil water. You can make toast. You cannot host Thanksgiving dinner unless everyone eats standing up.
But here’s the secret. It’s finished. It has electricity. It has insulation. Someone thought about the wiring so you don’t accidentally burn down your $1,000 paradise.
