yurt living

[lostboystoy]

hey David. No I havent heard from anyone on this forum that actually lives in a yurt, I am getting alot of neg. from people who thought about it and decided against it. I am still looking forward to talking to someone who has lived in a yurt for awhile so i can get the ins-n-outs, the good and the bad.
One of the reasons of thinking the yurt is that it would be a home until I get my buisness established on the big Island, then I can take out a contruction loan against the property to build a house, then I also have the yurt as a geust house for family...
I am not looking at it as a re-sale value since the value of land never goes down but homes can fluctuate with the economy, people are finding out now with all those sup-prime loans, that peoples homes are not worth as much as they think, the price of housing will aleays be a yo-yo effect but the price of land will only continue to go up. With that said the yurt seems like a good option in case i get island fever in 5 years, which I dont think it will happen since this has been a plan for several years now, but for whatever reason I can always pack up the yurt and move it where you cant with a stick frame home.....still learning and all input is greatly apprecieated...thanx Craig
