Wife and I are contemplating selling our house and was wondering: We have a metal carport type building on a concrete pad to house our 32' motorhome. Is that structure going to be more of a hindrance or benefit in our planned selling of the house? Certainly, someone with an RV or large boat would likely be interested in buying the house. BUT, a person without a need for the structure, I believe, could be turned off and not interested in buying the house because of the structure. Anyone with thoughts about this? Hindrance or Benefit??

A barn or garage hides whatever is inside it. They are a barrier to critters. They keep all the weather off whatever is inside, even when the wind is roaring and debris is flying around. They really aren't comparable.westernrvparkowner wrote:ro_sie wrote:Barns and garages are very different than carports. And the construction of a carport will not lend itself to conversion to a true garage. To me, carports are the above ground swimming pools of vehicle shelters. They sort of work, but they aren't ever going to be a positive focal point.
From a womans point of view. I would leave it. We built a steel building for our MoHO. It has a concrete pad and is large enough for a 41 ft with all the slides out and still lots of room for storage. I live on several acres and recently someone bought the closest house to me that also has acerage. the new owners are building a huge garage on their property. The man is into race cars and builds them. another house close to me is up for sale, a couple of acres, and people are fighting over it. A bidding war is happening, because they all want the extra land to build another structure on. Yeah, keep that building standing. Its easy to remove it if it is unwanted.
Carports in Montana vs carports in Florida are somewhat different animals. It doesn't take much to provide shelter in Florida from the almost daily summer rains and or sun and the winters are mild enough to just want to keep the frost off of the windshield. Carport in Montana not nearly as functional.
