You hit all the key points. Just got off the phone with my electrical contractor. Even though I have a well, they want to see an agricultural setup to give the permit to pull power. I am officially an avocado tree farmer. I farm 1 tree. Permit approved
Honestly the government ruins everything it touches. Used to you could be in total control of your house on your property if you owned such property. Now you have to go through complicated approval steps to do even a repair legally.
This is by far the best video I have watched about living in a Camper, so informative and hits a lot of questions my husband and I had. We are starting this kind of journey with our two little ones. Thank you
Great information Andrew. The first thing I purchased for my property was a tow-behind camper to install under my pole barn. I do not live in it but it is where I stay while on the property. My single wide is storage and we are currently talking to builders for our new home. Wish me luck in these trying times. Like you we got a good deal on an older camper....stepping stones my friend.
We have a couple friends that are doing the Same thing y'all have Done in past couple years and they still haven't gotten half of what you all have done. (Guess they are happy with what they have) Thank goodness for a Blackstone, we love it. Every county in Florida is different for living in a trailer. (5 acres or 10 acres ,is there a well , what type of electricity, temp or with a (forget what they call it ) Hard to believe y'all don't have a million plus a billion subscribers. Y'all good people's
Good job touching on a lot of important points! As you said the laws vary per state, county, and city. Here you need approved building plans before you are given an address. No temporary above ground holding tanks are allowed. I built my home on 80 acres in the foothills 15 years ago. Now we are considering selling it and RVing (at least part of the time) on our other adjacent 80 acre parcel. I'm getting pretty old and not sure about starting over.new power, water septic as most have become both harder to do and way more expensive than they were then. I think your video will help me in my decisions. Thanks!
We had a 38 foot trailer that had two bedrooms. We were seasonal at a campground so we loved it. We did hate the small bathroom too and the small bed. That was hard so I could never live in it full time with a family of four. We loved going there but loved coming home too. 🤣😅
I went and bought a 27ft keystone conquest for my wife 2 year old and I. We lived in it for 2 months and I lost my mind bought a 40 foot carriage by cameo. Lived in that for 2 years no issue. It really is the layout. The conquest was 100 square foot about with the same size bathroom bed and living room. My cameo was 15k more than the conquest but totally worth it in design insulation space and bathroom/ kitchen/ living room space.
I love reading where someone says they are moving on to someone's property for whatever reason but nothing is said about oh, I don't know, like hookups? Unless someone has had the land set up with permits for rv hookups, not using the main house for electrical,, and plumbing, things can go bad fast.
Excellent video we have lived in our 31 ft fifth wheel for 9 years before we moved here our container house is underway but you did an excellent job explaining things but your right everywhere is very different. Luckily we had an address even in the middle of nowhere our parcels were in a subdivision. Excellent info Andrew. 👍💞
Hi Tiffany and Andrew that was small quarters to live in long term. Thankfully you had your garage or out building. You have done well and built your beautiful home. Love your videos and Sunday live. Take care. 🇨🇦
My husband and I are thinking of doing just this. We have 30 acres of farmland we want to build on, and we're sick of paying rent every month. Thanks for all the great information!
Problem for me and my wife is that we won't have an "escape" like y'all talked about. Plus my limit financially and physically for my 1/2 ton pickup is a 27ft bumper pull, since I don't want to pay for a 5th wheel receiver. I also have no plan for how long this might last, or what to do after. I just know my lease is coming to an end quickly (2 months) and I need to get something figured out. I refuse to pay 800+ per month plus bills for a small apartment that won't even let us have our cat. A lot with water, elec, and sewer hookups for 260/month sounds way better.
You go to do what you have to do. Any sort of outdoor space, even a cooking area and picnic table helps. Campers can feel like a coffin to a lot of people if you stay inside them all day and night. Some people it doesn't bother.
You covered things that I have not heard from other commentators. We are setting up our farm to bring in our RV that we have parked in a RV park. We are looking at all of theses things. Water, Electricity and septic. We have a 3 phase electrical service that supplies electrical for a 30 hp water pump that is 600' deep. They want $12,000 to make things more residential like replacing the 30hp pump to a 3hp pump. I put in a 1000 gl holding tank and a 3/4 hp above ground pump to service the RV. That should be more than enough to capture the 400 gallon per minute and soften it down to fill the 48 gl bladder tank with a 40/60 pressure switch. Its difficult to deal with a Florida permit office but with voices like yours that has been there and done that we will be able to get this done. Thx for taking the time to let us know how to do theses things.
Thank you for this video so much! Im thinking about buying a decent sized camper and living in a campground for a year or two (moving for work and only going to be there for 2-3 years) and dont wnt to deaal with leaases and appartments and your video gave me things to think about! I appreciate it and cant wait to watch more of your videos!!
Thank you Andrew, best video I have seen on setting up a van semi to permanently and also setting up pole shed, sewage and appliances in advance. Great points re living, bathroom, electricity usage and local county and state issues. Well done!!
Really great information Andrew. Who would have thought so much is involved in staying in a camper while building your home. I'm certain many will benefit from this my friend. Not being in that situation it's still very interesting learning about it. Thanks!
Hey y'all 👋🏽. Great video packed with valuable information. Some of the stuff you mentioned, I had no clue about. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
My old house had a bathroom not much bigger than that bath closet. Now your huge new shower makes even more sense. Hope the white PU truck is yours. It would be well deserved in my opinion. "If it's not my money, sure, spend it!" is one of my favorite sayings.
That old white pickup I bought probably 12+ years ago. It's a 2001 and still as reliable as the day I bought it. No new pickup trucks in my future, they've priced themselves out for me.
Thanks for the video this was really good information. I was considering the cost of the RV washer drier and then saw your video and it makes sense to simply build an accessory building for these things and keep as much out of the camper as possible.
I'm about the do the same thing. Moving into a camper full-time in my 10arces in Tennessee while my house is built. Just me and my husband...plus our German shepherd. Thanks for giving this video. I'm trying to take any information that helps with this transition
Thank You for this video. I want to buy a quality previously owned recreational vehicle and buy a small piece of property and live in the recreational vehicle always instead of paying lot rent. I pray God helps me.
Excellent info because I have been thinking of doing the same thing for the past year or so and now I really have a better understanding of what my options are. Right now looking at a couple of 8-10 acres properties in the Tallahassee area and hopefully before the year ends I’ll be starting the same “journey”! I’m new to the channel and have been enjoying a lot all of your videos and will keep watching them for sure! Thanks and keep up the great work because you’re helping a lot of people just like me, for sure!
Had a car crash through my home and nearly kill my family. We are doing okay these days but we just bought that exact camper and plan on doing the same thing you just spoke about. Can't thank you enough for posting this!
This is by far one the best and most helpful videos I've seen as I'm in the process of restoring "This Old House" if you will..... Thank you for taking the time to share, edit, etc......new sub.
Did your insurance cover the damage from the tornado ? This is my biggest fear because I have 2 little girls and live full time in my rig . If you see this , thanks for the knowledge 🙏
@@TKCL its crazy because we have talked about this exact plan for over a year and I happen to come across your video! I'll continue to watch! My husband is a musician and we travel alot! A travel trailer is a must for us soon!
My wife and I lived in an RV with a Malamute dog for over 20 years 6 months in Florida and 6 months in Canada. The only reason we stopped was she got cancer and passed away
I noticed your permanent decal is in Florida. Do you know if that varies by county? In Levy county, they’re not letting ppl live in RVs until you have a septic and power first and even then you have a limited amount of time to get your home built.
Andrew your camper bathroom is a suite compared to ours! 😂 Besides the things you touched base on we had/have to contend with cold weather. That means freezing pipes etc. We ruffed it this winter and kept the camper out all winter. A many a times we would run out of propane in the middle of the night.l and would have to go outside and switch tanks. One other thing you have to make sure you have plenty of propane on hand!! For awhile I had to tow mine 30 miles every couple of weeks to dump the black/gray tanks. Hopefully soon we will be getting our CO. We are still doing finish work! House looks great!
great info...lived with a friend in the teenage summers in VA while they had their home built...definitely spent all waking hours outside their trailer lol
So you have it in a good spot that carport or whatever it is truck port lol will definitely keep it from leaking. I would pull it a little further away from the end so the weather don’t get it. Keep your floor dry and it’ll last forever.
Yes it cost 400$ a month that included electricity water tv swimming pool hot tub and laundry room very clean Rv park in Oregon but were very happy in our new home
Oh is a Camper Remodel coming soon?? I can see you fixing this up to take it out camping now that you built your home 😁 Hope you all are doing well sorry to hear about the spammers that you were dealing with I didn't get to see the video but i saw the title.. ❤I am surprised your going to sell it and not gut it out and build it to your specs but I am sure you have plenty of other projects to do!
In Harris country Texas it’s perfectly legal as long as you register it in Texas, have a Texas drivers license, and have a property certified for dwelling
Just purchased a camper to live in and after looking around at several lots, I've found that, sadly, the bathrooms don't get much larger than that lol. even in larger/newer/more expensive campers.
These guys are so amazing if you haven’t watched their channel if there is one thing I can talk you into watching that will help you is there channel when they built their barn dominium and his solar power information is very helpful too
my wife and I and an 80 lb malamute dog lived in a 33 ft RV for 20 years, 6 months in Canada and 6 months in Florida. Would still be doing it but she had cancer and passed in 2020
I have about 200 more questions to ask you, but... Your viewership (in reality) is in the six figure range. (it is) Keep relating your life experiences. WE ARE LISTENING! Stay real and honest and true... be persistent and patient.
I see you live in florida as well as i do.. i already have a house but i want a back up home. May i buy an agricultural land that allows mobile homes and install a trailer to “live permanently “ even though it will be just recreational.? I’m planning to buy a land and leave the trailer/rv parked maybe under a metal roof as you did but i’m not planning to live full time.. i just want to live it parked in the land as long as i want to.?
Dang there's plenty of room for Mr Doug, Mr Jimmy , Chris and me in the bunk room and crystal can have the front bedroom 🤷🏽♂️....... LoL..... If I didn't live so far I would buy the trailer up in a heartbeat
Very interesting! I think most people who live in their RVs live in an RV park where electrical and waste disposal is furnished. I never thought of the things involved if you live in one on your property like you mentioned. Thanks for the video!
As far as I know, we deal with our township. They said no to a tiny home, no to a single wide trailer- so I'm planning on a camper until I can figure things out. How much was your electric bill? Did you have a generator? If so, how much did it cost and was it loud?
I know some people who have lived in their 5th wheel for at least 14 years. Their RV is always leaking of and on, it's hard finding the leaks in the tip out slides. And they had to replace the air conditioner and furnace twice. The air runs all the time, and it does freeze up some times. They live in Florida and the air can never catch up with the darn heat. People, im telling you, life can be a pain living in a RV for that long of time. And then when something breaks down, it's hard to find an repair man to come out to you too get what ever needs to be fixed. I would not like that kind of living.
This video better go viral if I've ever seen one. Hello neighbor from Siesta Key Florida. What would you like for the trailer ? lol Y'all jumped thru more than a couple loops for the past couple of years, with a smile and a little lub.
Is their anything y’all don’t cover??? I look at different things for getting set up after moving, y’all pop up almost every time. Great videos keep it up!
You are a great public speaker. It almost seems that you do it professionally. Not all of us can speak the way you do in front of a microphone and camera!!! You might put your speaking ability in your resume!!!
This was what my family was going to do. Checked with zoning as the property was just shy of 10 acres. Their answer was a big no. Couldn't even build a pole barn before the house. Camper could only be on the property for 4 weeks at a time. Ridiculous... Fortunately we were outbid for the property as we had already put an offer in.
Hi there, great video. quick question. I have installed permanent connection to my RV to my sewer line beside the house that leads to the city line. I have installed sewer pump to pump it better, my question is, should keep the black and gray valve ON all the time, if not why not? thanks
For sure never leave the black tank open, you build up dry solids as a result and only have a small trench flowing through the tank. Closed, solids stay suspended and damp to not stick to the tank.

Always go big if you can afford it. Some don't mind small spaces, I HATED our small RV bathroom. Everything else was fine with us.

Definitely going to sell it, need the money for other projects and want the room back in my building.
Excellent video. You may have mentioned it before, but I don’t recall if you have a well or not, and, if so, where your pump is installed.
Well was the first thing we installed on the property years ago. It's about 150ft from the camper and I ran water lines to it.
In Harris country Texas it’s perfectly legal as long as you register it in Texas, have a Texas drivers license, and have a property certified for dwelling
Campers are adorable
Just purchased a camper to live in and after looking around at several lots, I've found that, sadly, the bathrooms don't get much larger than that lol. even in larger/newer/more expensive campers.

Depends on what state you are in.
We have mobile home parks that have permanent camper and rv living but you never know when that will change
my wife and I and an 80 lb malamute dog lived in a 33 ft RV for 20 years, 6 months in Canada and 6 months in Florida. Would still be doing it but she had cancer and passed in 2020
I have about 200 more questions to ask you, but...
Your viewership (in reality) is in the six figure range. (it is)
Keep relating your life experiences. WE ARE LISTENING! Stay real and honest and true... be persistent and patient.
So where did your "outdoor" sink and washer drain to?
I see you live in florida as well as i do.. i already have a house but i want a back up home. May i buy an agricultural land that allows mobile homes and install a trailer to “live permanently “ even though it will be just recreational.?
I’m planning to buy a land and leave the trailer/rv parked maybe under a metal roof as you did but i’m not planning to live full time.. i just want to live it parked in the land as long as i want to.?
Every county has different rules, you'll have to check with the zoning departments.
Dang there's plenty of room for Mr Doug, Mr Jimmy , Chris and me in the bunk room and crystal can have the front bedroom 🤷🏽♂️....... LoL..... If I didn't live so far I would buy the trailer up in a heartbeat
That would be a sight to see lol
Very interesting! I think most people who live in their RVs live in an RV park where electrical and waste disposal is furnished. I never thought of the things involved if you live in one on your property like you mentioned. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching
So does the shop not have sewage the camper can connect to? Or, being it’s just grey water from sinks and washer. It’s just dumping on the ground.
No sewage in the shop, I wanted to but it required full septic.
the most helpful video i've seen so far
Glad you found it useful
Very informative video Andrew.
Glad you found it useful.
Thanks for the information and the house looks amazing bro!
Thank you
As far as I know, we deal with our township. They said no to a tiny home, no to a single wide trailer- so I'm planning on a camper until I can figure things out. How much was your electric bill? Did you have a generator? If so, how much did it cost and was it loud?
We had power ran, it cost $2200 upfront and my bills were usually $130-150 a month.
Thank you for such clear info.
And I know things may differ state by state.
But this was helpful, and you are here in Florida
Varies county by county too, but I'm glad you found the content useful.
Very informative video. Thanks for sharing. Take care and God Bless.
Thank you for watching, God bless!
Thank you for this video. It was perfect for me.
Glad you enjoyed it
I know some people who have lived in their 5th wheel for at least 14 years. Their RV is always leaking of and on, it's hard finding the leaks in the tip out slides.
And they had to replace the air conditioner and furnace twice. The air runs all the time, and it does freeze up some times. They live in Florida and the air can never catch up with the darn heat. People, im telling you, life can be a pain living in a RV for that long of time. And then when something breaks down, it's hard to find an repair man to come out to you too get what ever needs to be fixed. I would not like that kind of living.
In all honesty they are not designed for full time living. They are not insulated well, but it is possible.
Excellent video! You did mention that you had to empty out the septic tank once every 6 weeks, did you run the gray water with it or seperately?
Awesome video!!! Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
This video better go viral if I've ever seen one.
Hello neighbor from Siesta Key Florida.
What would you like for the trailer ? lol
Y'all jumped thru more than a couple loops for the past couple of years, with a smile and a little lub.
Thank you! Fingers crossed it does! 🤞🤞🤞🤞
I'd like a lot down in Siesta Key for the camper please 😉😁
Y'all are some real people's lol
We would love to meet you all someday.
Is their anything y’all don’t cover??? I look at different things for getting set up after moving, y’all pop up almost every time. Great videos keep it up!
We cover a lot, over 800 videos on the channel. Thanks for watching
Great tips, thanks Andrew!
Thank you!
You are such a good teacher. Your attention to detail is wonderful…
Thanks for the information…❤️🙏🏼❤️
Thank you for the kind words
You are a great public speaker. It almost seems that you do it professionally. Not all of us can speak the way you do in front of a microphone and camera!!! You might put your speaking ability in your resume!!!
Thank you very much! I hosted a lot of meetings and events at my last job. You get use to it I guess.
Love all the info.....thanks for passing it along to us
Thank you for watching

Thank you for the great info. 🙏

This was what my family was going to do. Checked with zoning as the property was just shy of 10 acres. Their answer was a big no. Couldn't even build a pole barn before the house. Camper could only be on the property for 4 weeks at a time. Ridiculous... Fortunately we were outbid for the property as we had already put an offer in.
Crazy how rules vary from place to place. Not much "freedom" anymore it seems.
Not having kids living in the camper is probably the biggest thing that helped your marriage survive living in a camper!
Very informative. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi there, great video. quick question. I have installed permanent connection to my RV to my sewer line beside the house that leads to the city line. I have installed sewer pump to pump it better, my question is, should keep the black and gray valve ON all the time, if not why not? thanks
For sure never leave the black tank open, you build up dry solids as a result and only have a small trench flowing through the tank. Closed, solids stay suspended and damp to not stick to the tank.
