Float Homes For the ultimate west coast feel, living in a float home along Spirit Creek, is an option for a few. On this day when the sun was out I could have just moved in! The ducks on the piling took the cheaper option. #floathomes #floathomesvillage #spirittrail #northvancouverbc #livingonthewater #mytravellinglens (at Spirit Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn7BABGrlte/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Do Floating Homes have any advantages or disadvantages?

Buying a floating home can be an overwhelming experience. It can also be an exciting moment. However, floating homes do have their advantages and disadvantages. Today, we discuss the same:

Advantages

It is common misconception that houseboats and floating homes are similar. However, this is not true. Unlike houseboats, floating homes are moored to the dock and offer a calm and serene living experience. If you have ever spent life living in a houseboat, you know how much additional cost it can incur. The major part of this additional cost comes from gasoline. Additionally, the floating home community is quite lovable, pleasant and cares for each other.

Living on a floating home will show you how life feels like when waking up to the beautiful sight of the sun rising in the morning. Life on a floating home allows you to watch local animals right from your home’s deck. Also, living in a floating home allows you to use the large water body to become your swimming pool.

In some Canadian states, floating homes are not considered as real property. Thereby taxes may be levied on it. However, the taxes levied on floating homes are comparatively cheaper than real properties.

Disadvantages

There are also certain disadvantages to buying a floating home and it is very important to be prepared for them. Living life on floating homes also becomes boring with time. You will also find yourself getting tired and irritated when walking up and down the ramp, carrying those groceries and garbage to and fro from your floating home.

Floating homes also face storage scarcity issues. Living in floating homes can also rack up bills such as mooring fees, monthly electricity, water, sewage, and other utilities.

The experience of living in floating house is similar to that of living in home on land but at the same time very different.
