Title: I&#x27;m curious about possible non-conventional living arrangements to cut out one of my biggest expenses. If location weren&#x27;t a primary concern (I can telecommute as a programmer, but would still want to live within a few hours of a major city), what&#x27;s the cheapest living arrangement possible? Buying cheap land and hooking up utilities to a mobile home? What are the fees like to run utilities to new property? Are there cheaper living structures than mobile homes? Are there completely different ideas I&#x27;m not considering?<p>I&#x27;d be curious if I could set myself up with a basic home for $40,000 or less that would mean I wouldn&#x27;t have to pay any other living expenses going forward besides unavoidable ones (property taxes [though I could pick a state without property tax], maintenance and utilities).
