Anyone have experience with RV Life FULL TIME? With having a dog in the life or working?

[goodwaterpickers]

If you haven’t done so, I would suggest renting an RV and living in it for a few weeks just to see what types of things get on your nerves!

[WayneThompson_KY]

Just some random thoughts to consider:
1) I have had several friends join the RV lifestyle and after two years they were tired of traveling and settled down again.
2) Consider keeping your house and renting it. Rents are sky-high now. Yes when you move back in you'll have to paint and do a lot of cleaning but it may solve the issue of having a place to return to.
3) You will get a greater return on your home appreciation than by selling and investing the money you are taking out.
4) I know you put in a tremendous number of hours but when you are someplace new you are going to spend your time sightseeing and you will work less so count on your income reducing. Do you really want to try and juggle work and vacation time. Wouldn't it better to do them separately?
5) The best suggestion I have seen on here is rent an RV for two or three months and see if it works and you enjoy it. You may decide that every summer you are going to rent an RV and travel during the hottest time in Florida and take an extended two or three month vacation and then return home and go back to work. You have a strong enough work ethic to make a years worth of income in 9-10 months.
6) As far as mail and returns if you stay in one place for a several days at a time you can have items sent general delivery to any PO. You would just have to have someone who is sending stuff to let you know what day they are actually mailing so you can determine what PO you will be near on day of expected delivery. I think PO holds general delivery packages 5 days.
7) If you love that house as much as you seem to, could you find a place you like as well if after a couple years you want off the road? And what are prices going to be 2-3 years from now. May be much higher, or maybe the same, no one knows at this point.
8) One expense you may be not be looking at is a RV campsite is probably going to run you $50 a day ($1500 month).
9) I was in the mortgage business dealing with home loans for 40 years and I can show you how it makes sense financially to carry a big mortgage, or why rent is cheaper. Justify either with true numbers. But "peace of mind" has a lot of value knowing you have a permanent place to call home.
10) If children are in the plans how well will you be able to raise a child on the road and take them everywhere you want to go sightseeing. I think that may be the biggest decision before you decide to live the nomad lifestyle.
11) I'm sure whatever you decide you can make work, but you have to ask is there an easier way to accomplish the same thing differently? Good luck!

Don’t make any rash decisions, maybe rent out your house (if ok with your HOA?) and rent a RV to see how you both like it? Also being away from family is hard for you both. Lots to think about for sure!

[rubberduckie]

Casey I think this is an awesome idea. My husband and I are also considering doing this in the next year or two. Just some thoughts…the under-bay storage is typically used like a garage for the RV. A place to keep tools, water & sewer hoses, batteries for solar, outdoor equipment, etc. Make sure you leave some space for all that. You might also want to check YT for others who are currently doing it full time even with kids. Of course they will show a lot of the good stuff but there are some that also show the reality like “things will break”. Excited for this possible new expansion of your channel.

[kimlynne]

Although, I don’t have any ideas to give you as I have never done anything like that. My gut listening to your video just says “ if this can be done successfully he will do it “. Your business sense, work ethic, who you are as a person helps determine your success. What you have succeeded in already is because of who you are. You will research and make sure you know what you need to do. You will be successful because you as a person take the steps to be successful in whatever it is you’re striving to do. That’s been easy to pick up on just listening to your videos. 😊

Sell the big house and cars...I did this 8 years ago, my dream home I spent 15 years upgrading, my backyard oasis and office space I LOVED. No regrets! That house and the $4k monthly expense that went with it was an anchor. Sooo many more opportunities opened up once I let it go. My big pay off happened after I bought and sold an AirBnB that doubled my income. As for returns, have them sent to someone who is stationary. They check them in, look them over, relist for you and when/if they sell, they ship.

[dianapearce]

If you're both in agreement, do it ! 2 or 3 years sounds great. If you don't do it now, you never will. Retirement is not the time to do that. The time to do it is now while you still have the energy. Just ensure you find out what would be best, ask more than one financial advisor if you should sell your house or rent it, if that's even an option where you live. Get with that guy that's been doing it for 9 years. I just saw this, you may have changed your mind by now.

I recently retired from my seasonal retail business and use to own a 39 ft Class A diesel coach. I traveled for 3 consecutive months in the winter when I was closed. You would be surprised how much stuff you need to take with you in the outside storage. Things like outside table & chairs, camp rug, grill, ladder, tools, water hose, sewage hose, water filter, power cord to plug the RV in at campground, etc.
That being said, with your inventory, I would look into a Toy hauler as it has tremendous storage space and you can even setup your office in there to get away from the main living space. Not to mention giving Kate a studio space.
The 1 big thing you can’t forget about is the Capital Gains Tax you will loose if you don’t reinvent the proceeds of the house sale. When I sold my property after retiring I reinvested the proceeds in a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) from which I receive a monthly dividend. This delays the capital gains tax for a very long time.
Best of luck in your future endeavors.

For a return address, use your warehouse for your other business for returns. I think the dog if trained would do fine in an RV. You'd leave a dog home all day if you left for the day or went to dinner

[cherylbarnett]

Thats what we did. After 2 years we had quite a bit of equity. We sold the house and bought a 42' toy hauler. The toy room is our office and storage. I sell on Amazon and a little bit on ebay and my husband has a remote job. We travel around and still have our jobs. We are from Florida and that is our 'home base'. We use our daughters address. We started travelling Jan 2023. It's nice being able to source in so many different states. We bought a toy hauler because we heard about the repair costs for RVs as well as just getting an oil change.

[kimberlypinkston]

We travel with 5 dogs in our 40’. We take them on all our adventures and we always leave them when we go to the beach, lake for the day, out to dinner or to get groceries. When we go back we spend a good amount of time walking them and letting them play outside. They adjust to the lifestyle. As long as they have you, they are happy 😊

I work at an RV park in Colorado on the weekends, all summer long. Some things that I hear from full timers are; 1) Cost of a site per night. Here in CO, you're looking at between $80 to $120 per night in a tourist area. That adds up fast. 2) Repair costs. Mobile RV repair is not cheap, and the large Class A rigs have more bells and whistles that can fail. 3) Fuel costs are insane! 4) You definitely want to consider the mobile Starlink, as wifi at RV parks can be hit or miss. 5) It's hard to be spontaneous with a Class A. Larger sites are in demand. The park where I work is already 25% booked for NEXT summer 2025 at an average rate of $100/night. The good news is that I meet a ton of folks who really love the full time lifestyle and are working from the road successfully. It just takes planning and a realistic expectation of some of the challenges. You'll also meet so many interesting people along the way!! Wishing you the best on this journey if you choose to jump into RVing FT.

I have on a ranch...moved into a house and now want smaller. What I didn't have to do is pay any fees since I was helping on the ranch. You would. Just a weather cover if you decide to spend some time in one state ..the rent for one is minimum $800 a month.
The other thing to consider is what a great experience this would be. Seeing the country while things are still ok. As for the dog..I had a Rottweiler in mine. She guarded me as well as the 'home' if I was gone all day. Keep looking into the pros and cons.

[dealsonwheels]

Wow!! Rockstar flipper me and my wife are the pioneers of mobile ebay and have been doing it almost flawlessly for 9 years running traveling the country.we would have a whole wealth of info to share with you..😊

[nedracrouse]

I would say it sounds exciting, but, would try it out first before selling your home. Life is unpredictable.

[zipoziper]

Rent one and do it for a couple months see what you think

[lindavaden]

Go for it Casey! I'm 65 and life goes by so quickly. Sell your house while prices are high and invest your money while you travel (I work for an investment firm). Send all your inventory to your warehouse and let them handle everything like you do for us. If you have a few returns consider just doing a refund and let the buyer keep the item. No new pets until you make a decision. There are plenty of houses out there and always deals to be had. You could always just pay cash later for what you can afford if interest rates are too high. Get rid of the debt and go enjoy life before you have children. You can always make a few trips home to visit family or offer them a nice getaway by coming to visit you.
On the road again.... 😃

[L.L.Cool.T]

Life is short. Go for it, and enjoy the adventure.

[DavesHikesNewMexico]

I think lots of us are thinking the same thing. I retired from my ebay store where I was a slave, six years ago and have not looked back. I just go hiking and traveling. Now I am thinking I could take the equity buy a small RV and travel some more. But no more ebay sales. Just keep on working on residual incomes. Good Luck with your plans!
