    Oh my goodness. That is what we have been working on is moving Brian's folks into assisted care and healthcare living right amid our downsizing and sale of our ranch we moved them from Iowa to Texas so they are new residents of TX. April 30th is coming fast. As soon as we downsize our buyers want to close so we are working hard on it. We plan to winter in TX as our daughter and son in law and grandson and new granddaughter this May will be born as well as both our parents. My dad has been a winter Texan for about 28 years he resides in McAllen for a minimum of 5 months up to 6 months.

    When I lived in Houston I used to roller blade on that sea wall. I'm considering when I go full time if I should buy a pad and a post for 4-5 months meaning buy a lot and install utilities and an rv roof. Maybe on 2 acres and rent it out when I am not there.
    Thoughts?

    • @rvamericayall
      @rvamericayall  4 года назад +1

      There are plusses and minuses both ways. Having property as a home base would give you somewhere you could always come back to, and renting it out while you're not there would be a great way to help offset the costs. But it also gives you somewhere to maintain, upkeep and pay taxes and things on.
