I really liked the way it was shaped previously. Gave it so much character. More cost effective with your remodel of course.youve been humbled if you ever have had to live in one not by choice. 30yrs ago divorced and putting myself through college for law enforcement with a 4 yr old daughter. I did the best I could. It wasn’t a dream home by any means and renting was still expensive. I was lucky to have a wood stove to heat it during winter with the heavy snow.

I completely agree!

Now, after stripping all of that away, it seems like a cold and sterile environment with a single bathroom and a standing shower.... It looks sounds and feels about as cold as relaxing as a dentist's office. 😢

Great job! Those mini split air systems are very efficient and quiet. Seems like renovating older mobile homes is getting to be very popular and an economical alternative to a tiny house.

Aw...I'd love to have those vintage awnings on my home. They added so much character to the mobile home.

You cannot bathe kids in a shower. You need a tub. Open shelves? Not so much. Your dishes get dirty and pick up cooking grease. People in these mobile homes probably don't have any matching dishes or glasss. Also, if you have 2 kids,mom,and dad you need full sized washer and dryer not stackable. Moms are always doing laundry.

I would take into consideration the view. you blocked all the windows facing the river view and keep the ones looking at the other trailers. as a selling point the river view is much nicer to look at and a window in the bathroom is desired by a lot of people something to keep in mind in the future. other then that you made a bad looking trailer look a lot better.

Maybe keep the windows on the river side and the front and have a small window to the side of the front door. Was nice to have a light story, usually only see that in high end houses. Understand the expense about restoration, though. That's not your business, you redo and flip. But riverview would have been big selling point. More money? Maybe not a lot , since it's an old trailer🤷

I hope you wind up in an old run down place with no even a view considered. Can't you consider past selling point to what would be nice to live in. Women need to bathe and soak. Men sometimes do to. So you never bathe, do you even use a rag when you shower or just product and no scrubbing the dead skin off with the sweat. Unusual.

I agree having normal cupboards and the shower tub combo would be better and more functional. It seems like he jumped on the minimalist trends.

Open shelving, especially in a small kitchen is a waste of space and unsanitary. Mobile home dwellers need a very functional kitchen as they cook almost all of their meals. You should at least screen in the porch or better yet make it a 3 season sunroom. It's a huge selling feature and has a nice view of the lake and acts like another room into the house.

It looks good,but I like the old one too

Keep doing the renos. They are great and give ideas!

I love what you've done to mobile homes

I don’t like the idea of not having upper cupboards in the kitchen. You need cupboard space in a kitchen! The “open” floor plan between the kitchen and living room is a no go for me. There still needs to be a divider of some kind between the two rooms with (you guessed it) more cupboards or storage area. The kitchen also needs more counter space. The same holds true in the bathroom. There needs to be space for toiletries and laundry products. You have done an excellent job remodeling this mobile home. It is a grand idea to rescue these older homes and make them modern and livable. But do pay attention to the way the home was originally planned. Be careful sealing up too many windows. Many are in place for cross ventilation or to create an illusion of space for a small home. I am looking forward to more of these renovations! Good luck!

Great jobs on both mobile homes! Keep doing them and the two others that the park is asking you guys to do!

You did a great job on this particular home!

Love watching these. Please continue to do more.

Glad I found you. I live in a mobile home park. This is great for us. Thank you.

The 45-degree from the kitchen to the hallway is interesting, but for this small of a home I think I would rather have kept the wall for a larger pantry cabinet. I also have to vote a thumbs down on the kitchen shelving. It does help in keeping an open space feel, but cabinets with clear or frosted glass doors would have accomplished the same thing. As for trading the tub out for a shower, I'm definitely in favor. Yeah, it's helpful with kids for those very early years but then everyone is taking a shower. On the other end of the age spectrum, stepping in and out of a tub can be a hazard for seniors. Great work.

@chocolate-eq6jn

Yes, but here's the thing: Seniors will need a bathtub , so the solution would be to install a walk-in bath tub (it has a door and you can sit down with a chair or recline to rest and relax). They can be pricey, though, and you have to make sure to get the right features. I agree with you about the kitchen shelving.

Love your reno work. Nice clean lines and great finishes. Can't go wrong with that. Even better, you have the greatest narrator voice. Your channel is blowing up because of you and your awesome presentation. Well done!
