Holy shit!!!! I just realized I can buy a 2-3 bedroom mobile home for less than $700 a month :awesome:

I am so going to do this and take the step to becoming trailer trash!!!!




There's a catch: lot fees. You can buy these places outright for 10k or so but then they charge you a ~$300/m lot fee which usually only includes very basic utilities like sewage and water. Sorry to ruin your life's dream :frown:




Yea, but if I buy a 3 bedroom home and then get 2 roommates and then charge them $550 for a room (or $600 a month for completely furnished rooms), that would basically cover the entire mortgage plus the lot fees. I'd just have to pay for internet and electricity basically.


Good plan but 1 fatal flaw. Let's say everything goes good for 6 months then 1 or both lose their jobs and can't pay? By that time you 3 will have bonded and you will have a hard time booting them. If they had been paying you by check and wrote in the memo rent eviction will take from 30 to 90 days and cost you as plaintif a shit ton more money. Not to mention hard feelings.

My parents are super cool...but my Mother is a VERY clingy & SUPERRR OVER-PROTECTIVE woman, she wants me to just live with her all her life (no bullshit) and wants me to be her little girl forever, and I appreciate everything thing she does.. but I don't want to be like 23 & have to call her to let her know where I  am 24/7? I just want my business to not be hers anymore.

Really just depends.

-How cool/lenient are your parents?
-Do you have money saved?
-What is the cost of living in your area?
-How much do you make monthly?
-Are you responsible?
-Are your friends responsible?

Even though the freedom is amazing when you move out, being able to be rent free and save money working a job will make things so much easier in the long run of things.

I'd say hold out as long as you can, save up as much as you can/get what you need to get done (college) then take the plunge.




My parents are cool! I make around 900 a month (I've applied to some better paying jobs)my 1st friend makes around 900 as well, and my 2nd friend makes like 1,000 something. We all put back money for savings each month. Idk the exact cost of living in my area, I live in TN if that helps lol I'm responsible (when it comes to serious stuff like money/budgets etc) & so are my friends. :thumbup:

I'm turning 19 Dec 25, 2013; I'm in college (that's all paid for) I have a car (it's paid off). Have an OK job.... But I'm planning to get either a second job or a higher paying job. (of course after i get my degree, I plan to start my career)

My question is...
1. When is a smart time to move out of my parents house? I don't want to move out too soon, but I do want to begin being an adult (kinda, I know I'm still young) I plan to have two roomates (my two best-friends, we all have jobs).
2. What are things I should consider in our cost of living?
3. What age did you move out?
4. Did it go well???




Stay at your parents long enough to save enough cash to buy a house. Then once you get the house, bring in the roommates to to pay your mortgage for you. During this time you work and it's all going towards savings cause your bills are paid by other people.

expense to take in consideration:

- food
- rent
- electricity
- Water
- Gas
- Cable
- Internet
- Phone
- Fun
- Some sort of tax or fee that you won't see coming that'll cost like 1500$ for no reason

Always keep a cushion of a minimum of 500$... 1500$ if you can and 5000$ is ideal.




Yeah, this is a "two-years-MAYBE-three-years-from-now" plan. A lot of a saving will be done until then. Like we are all serious & none of us has any real bills, so we are trying to save a lot, while we still have parents paying for all of our important stuff.

I (sort of) agree with patlal. I dono about waiting long enough to buy a house but a good time is when you can not only afford your living expenses but also have leftover each month to save. You never know what can come up on your own. Roommates might bail, car might break, could lose your job unexpectedly etc so you need a financial buffer.




Yeah, I get what he means, sounds like a good plan! Having extra money each month is what I aim for. Until I move out, I'm doing nothing but saving!

My mom was always kind of like that, but by the time I was in like 10th grade she started getting more lax, then by the time I was a senior I was pretty much allowed to do whatever I wanted.

I wouldn't come home for days on end, and while I would usually call her and let her know, she was always cool with it.

The only thing she had a problem with was me bringing drugs to our house.


I moved out twice.

The first time I knew was only temporary, I was taking care of someone's house/kid while they were in jail.

Them were tough times to be on my own, I was only like ~18, I was completely broke, and I had to take care of a ~3 year old kid. I had no fucking idea what I was getting into doing that shit. I had to gather pennies up for little dude to eat a few times, and I went hungry many times.

Then the second times was cool, I loved it, I was bringing in decent money, I had friends over, I went out and did shit, it was fun, there were a few rough times when I ran out of money, but all in all it was good.

Then my roommate/bro-in-law had to go and rob my best friend/weed dealer, then I had to flip out on him and almost shoot him. So I left and moved back into my mom's, I wish he didn't do that because then I would probably still be out on my own basically.

I don't even remember what my point was but I already wrote all this out so I'm definitely going to post it.

I don't really view this as feasible. IDK where OP lives, but what kind of house can he buy for $300,000? Maybe a 3 bedroom house? The mortgage on that is going to be well above $2 grand a month. That's not calculating in homeowner's association fees and property tax, or internet and electricity and water and gas and cable fees. You can't possibly charge above $600 a month for somebody to rent out a bedroom in a house. You might get $1200 off on your entire bill, but not much more than that.




I don't want a house lol I JUST graduated highschool. Me & my two friends want a nice apartment or something.

If you are smart you won't move out till they ask you to. If you move in with your 2 best friends you won't remain best friends long.




I live with one of my friends already at my parents house now. (its  big house & my parents are cool) my other friend & I have been friends since birth, we are basically sisters, like we all no each others pet peeves, crazy habits in the group (like the neat freaks vs the slobs) so I'm not worried about our friendships, I just worry about money. & yeah, I'm not in a super rush to leave.

With all due respect, even if I were to pay the $300-$500 a month on top of the mortgage ON MY OWN WITHOUT ANY ROOMMATES, it would STILL be cheaper than paying a 1-bedroom apartment in this area. I would already technically easily be able to afford a 3-bedroom mobile home even without any roommates. The roommates would simply make my rent free. Since I'm single and have no children, I have no reason to live in a spacious 3-bedroom house by myself.

I could turn my house into a "young professionals" house, or even rent it out to college students for a year or two.

I think a month-to-month contract, with them signing a contract that states if they are unable to make rent payments, they should move out the next month, would easily take care of that problem.

Well I ain't saying it can't happen but you may not know all of their little odd habits and pet peeves. You may spend every day with them then all of the sudden shit changes when you are with them that much.



i was actually thinking about renting a place with two of my closest friends, and I didn't really think of all the little things that could go wrong. i thought about it on my next trip, and there are really infinite ways that situation could end up being shit. im glad i didn't go through

I don't understand why you guys are saying living with your friends is so bad. The best time of my life was living with my best friends at the dormitories.

Living with friends is much better than living awkwardly around strangers, or living alone and feeling lonely all the time.
