stillworking posted a topic in Buying & Building Homes, Rental Property, Land, Etc.
Why you might ask? Well, I have two lots a few hundred yards from the ocean, both next to family. Nice spots. Except for me it is much cooler by the ocean. I also have a beach lot. So, here is the problem. Nice little beach lot, tried to put a decorative bamboo fence around it a while back with the next plan to build a beach cottage and some how it just vanished before we had the chance to build the cottage , I mean every stick!!!! We have no family near the beach lot. So, I was thinking of building a bamboo rv cottage, say four meters by seven meters on some type of trailer. So, when I go the
