>150sq ft.

kek

I have a 700 sq ft. flat built out of BRICKS and CONCRETE that will not rot away in 20 years, or be blown off the next time there's a heavy storm.
The walls won't break if I accidentally bump a chair into them.

And I probably paid the same for it that you did your trailer.

Just admit it burgerbro, American houses are shit.

The only advantage of wood over masonry is that it's more earthquake proof, but unless you live on a fault line that's negligible.
And as far as drywall, well unless you like moving your walls around for no reason then it has no advantages whatsoever other than being cheap.

>renting 700 square foot flat.

Pathetic.
My garage is larger.


I don't live in a mobile home, but I'll bet his home is nicer than you're shithole. I've seen a few with granite countertops, wood floors and vaulted ceilings. Plus he's probably around 3x the square footage you have. And hes on acreage.

Stay mad eurocuck.

>renting 700 square foot flat.

I have more square footage in my shipping container shop + steel building. They sit on six acres along with two modest houses and a two car garage. I have about 70 grand in land + structires thanks to DIY.

>I have a 700 sq ft. flat

...uh, that's roughly the combined area of my bedroom and bathroom. My suburb-tier DRIVEWAY is double that.

Both of which have been here for nearly 80 years, by the way. As it it, I can't stand where I live now because it's too much shit-tier cityscape with too many people.

I'd kill myself before I lived in an area where there was literally no other feasible option than a flat/apartment/condo.

LOL brits are pathetic niggers. Can you imagine how much worse off you would have been if you hadn't stolen from the rest of the world

Suffice to say it's not happening anytime soon.

>Cheapest quote to pave my driveway was $40,833.

Check out crushed asphalt. It packs hard, water doesn't wash it into nothingness like crusher run, and it's so light I raked four truckloads out by hand (granted, I like exercise).

Crushed asphalt works fine on my otherwise soft and muddy driveway and I've had it there since the late nineties. Takes weight well and didn't deflect when my shipping containers were delivered.

>>1051397
OP here, my house trailer isn't huge but it's still bigger than your concrete tomb, plus once I get my wrap around porch build I will be able to step outside and view my 40 acre farm even when it's pouring rain or piss off the railing in any direction.... feels good

My bedroom and kitchen together is the size of your whole house.

You've never seen a 'heavy storm'

>F5/EF5 tornadoes are rare, accounting for only 1 percent of all tornadoes, yet they're responsible for 37 percent of tornado-related fatalities and often sweep well-built homes off foundations and critically damage steel-reinforced concrete structures.

Yes europeans. Please tell us how your superior brick and mortar construction stands up to natural disasters in the Americas.

>>1052423
so you think that when someone says heavy storm they can only mean an f5 tornado?

im not first class but im not white trash

You guys wonder why I live in hurricane alley yet you have fucking flammable tornadoes?
>>
>>1054002
You act like water spouts aren't a thing.

Hi OP! I wonder why your house is made of wood? I always have to cringe when people have wooden houses in risky areas. Do you have floods in your area? If so, build a strong concrete foundation and make sure your front door is above water level (when the river floods).

I was in Croatia ones and there you have stone houses and they were build during the time the Romans ruled. It is also nice if your your family would life there for a lot of generations.

Just wrap a skirting around that, and hang a porch swing off the gooseneck.

It'll be aaaaallrite!

OP is in a mobile home. As in a structure that sits on a trailer chassis and wheels. What's a foundation supposed to do for flood resistance?
