After a couple of years of apartment living, we started out in a mobile home, too. We bought it new, and our payments were something like $87/month. We parked it in the middle of my parent's pasture, installed our own septic tank and ran a water line from my parent's well. We had a 12 party phone line. We lived there about 4 years. Three of those years I was finishing college and we were building our first house. We paid as we built on the house and when it was finished, we had it paid for. There was a lot of sweat equity in that house. We sold the trailer for a little more than we had paid for it. What a deal!!! We are hoping that it will work out as well for Melissa and Garrett.
