🔷 ABOUT US 🔷
We're a DIY family building our "forever homestead" from 15 acres of raw undeveloped land in Tennessee. All of our content is family friendly and safe for everyone to enjoy.
In today's video we look inside the home to see how badly the interior was damaged during the move. We are most concerned about our finished drywall and if it cracked or fell apart while the mobile home was moved. Let's go!

A full covered front porch would be so awesome , just to sit out in the rain or a sunny day🤗
I was a Dealer for Nationwide modular homes in the 1970s and early 1980s I sold and installed several 2 and 3 section homes. People would say it’s a double wide I would have to tell them the difference these homes are built and shipped 100s of miles and stay in this almost perfect shape proves the build quality. There was always minor cosmetic damage to touch up but nothing much.
Boy I just look at a video of a double wide move yesterday on another channel and that poor thing had cracks coming from each corner of each window and doors in every room so I expected to see that today and amazing none!! So maybe the difference in a build from years ago as to today!!!
@@deborahlehman8617 the double wides are more flexible then the single wides. Plus the work Sam and Angela has done to theirs has made it more ridged
I set nationwide and comadore mods for 7 years.. we set for Vanderbilt out of Sanford NC
We would always tell them “bet you can’t pull your brick house down the road at 80mph and set it up and it turn out as good as them “double wides””
I am not surprised at all that the house move went well. Those people were clearly professionals and Sam always builds stuff super sturdy. Win win combo.
Kids "dirt shadows". As a mom of 4 and a Mimi of 7, I love that term and plan to use it often. Haha You guys look rested and happy today. And, everyone said AMEN
Those superficial cracks could be from the house being on a new level rather than from the actual transport. I love the views from your windows and I know y’all will enjoy living in the home-when you get everything put back in.
Patience is a virtue and you all have done beautifully! Congratulations you are moved!🎉😃
So glad you’re finally at your forever homestead. ❤️
Welcome to East, TN. What part are you in? I live in Newport, which is about an hour east of Knoxville and 30 minutes from Dollywood. Thank you for sharing your moving adventure. My mom and I watched it together and she had to close her eyes as they were bringing your home off the hill. LOL I am so thankful you had very minor damage with such a drastic move. I am so excited to see your upcoming videos and watch you build your Homestead. I do not live on a Homestead, per se, but I do have chickens, geese, turkeys and goats. I also live in a converted barn! LOL
We were in the moving and set up of manufactured homes. The we watched the move the crew did. Very professional job. Bringing it down backwards was amazing to see. That crew was great. So glad to see there is not any damage. Good job!!!!
Other then it is Still a piece of TRAILER TRASH!!
I think you have the right idea to work on the house before moving back in. Work goes so much faster when you don't have to move stuff around to get into the areas to work.
I just LOVE the view out your windows! I like seeing the woods one direction and open fields the other. The view you have while doing dishes in the kitchen is dreamy. So happy for you that you get to live this life! Thanks for taking us along with you.
Nice job on the move! You are loving it . My question is Tornadoes ... are you going to build inground storm shelter?
When you live in tornado-prone areas, this is a MUST!!!
7 people lost their lives a month ago near here because they didn't have a reinforced underground shelter, please plan for this ASAP!
Actually your home faired very well for that move, you definitely can expect some small stress cracks in various walls, whats impressive is the install of the windows and doors and that they operate great after that move, means you did well on that install at original location.
👏 KUDOS GUYS.
What wonderful news! I'm so glad everything and everyone arrived safely.
WOW
m
My phone screen has more cracks then your home .. So happy for you both!.
Life just got better!!😊
So happy for you an your new property! Owning property is something not everyone is able to do, it sure is a blessing.
So glad there is only minor damage! Would be great to see how you take care of the cracks in the dry wall.
Instead of a sliding glass door, get the kind that opens like a door, or the French doors. Sliding doors are a giant pain. Most of them don't lock properly and they are very easily broken into.
@Crinkle: I was thinking the same thing. If they get a covered porch the doors can swing out and it opens up the interior.
@@kmwrites7456 YES!!! Brilliant idea!! 😀
Yay! So thankful there's only superficial cracks and whatnot from the move! I bet you're right about the floors just being more level. Prayers for monetary blessings and endurance with living in the camper while you prepare your "new" home for dwelling in it!!
Love, love you guys! Can’t wait to see what you do. I love mobile homes. As I get older and am a widow, I am thinking more and more about moving into a “trailer” since it’s just me and my fur babies. I don’t need this nine room two story to take care of for many more years or the seven acres. I’m sure God has a plan for me as well.
@Linda Schoolcraft Hi Linda! Mobile home...trailer people always got a bad name. Back in the mid '80's I chose to live in a trailer for many reasons. Less space to heat means less electricity means less money and less space to have to CLEAN!!😃 With the money I saved on taxes, which is a great saving from a house and kept my expenses down from smaller footprint, I afforded to travel, take lengthy vacations and spend time with extended family I normally wouldn't be blessed with. Trailer living is where it's at! Hubby and I just bought a used and demolished on the inside, mobile home and are remodeling it for our forever home. Future proofing for our golden(or should I say silver😆) years and this will be my last.🤞 I think your thoughts of going smaller would be an asset to you and your lifestyle,(no matter what other people think) trailers are a cozy, less expensive but just as nice as a house, alternative way of living. There is another CZcamsr's that is fixing up a used mobile home. Her name is Merina. Her and her husband do great diy's on their home. Fearfully Creative is their channel. Remodel on a budget is their motto. They have to! They have 4 kids!!😂 Just be sure to get someone who knows about mobile home, if that's what you decide, and get a well built one! There is some out there that ain't worth burning for the heat!! Good luck and blessings on whatever you decide! Have a blessed week!
If I was you Linda ,Id sell that big house . And get a small house ,maybe 2 bedroom for you . So you have room, for kids our grandkid visits . Plus space rent is getting so high ,on mobile home spaces .
@@doedoe49Hi Paula! This is true. But Linda has 7 acres. Could easily sale 6 acres and still own her own land and home, and be totally out of debt. Again, reducing her expenses and have the security of owning her own home on her own property and with only one acre to have to upkeep. That is is our situation. We own our land and our home, out right so taxes and upkeep are minimal. With a 2 bedroom, 2 bath mobile home, we have 4 grandkids and a great nephew that all have their own sleeping space(triple bunk beds we built together and a queen size mattress the oldest sleeps on, with their own t.v., 🎮 gaming and vcr/DVD player. They love their room! The great nephew sleeps on the big sectional with me. He's still young and his mom has spoiled him to sleep with her so I sleep on one section and he on the other and fall asleep watching the Grinch😃(his favorite movie) and still afforded a week vacation at a condo at the beach with all of them plus 2 older granddaughters!🤗 It is a sweet and blessed life💖🙏💖 Very thankful!
I got got me one and can't wait to star fixing it
@@deborahdolphin5917 CONGRATULATIONS Deborah!! It's a labor of love but in the end, the results are so heartfelt and satisfying, wether you do it yourself or hire labor, it will be your stamp, your ideas that are coming to life right before your eyes! So happy for you!💖👏👏👏👏💖 What model and size is it? We went with a smaller one 13'×66' liveable space, title size 14'×70'(never could figure out why they include hitch! You cant live on it!😂) Prayers for a smooth renovation!💖🙏💖
You guys are such good hearted people. I’m happy that your home didn’t get a lot of damage. I hope everything else goes smooth for you.
Thank God everything went well. Sam and Angela good luck for all the new Reno.
Congratulations guys! Considering the stress the house went through, this was a very successful move. I understand how strange it is to look at the window and see something else. We moved my aunt’s house and to see everything the way it was inside and something completely different out the window is really surreal!
It's so weird, isn't it! :) Really cool too. Thanks for the comment Steve!
My home was moved an hour road trip loaded all I did was wired all the cabinets laid the dressers over. They put it in and had to do a move very high off the ground. Mr Simmons new his work. So did the guys that moved this one. Very blessed
Hello 👋 Caroline, how are you doing?
So glad everything on the honey do list is only easy, superficial fixes! Yay!! You're in tornado alley now. Spring is sometimes wild here, and unavoidable. So please consider that, before remodeling too much now. Summer is usually a calm weather time here. Might want to delay any construction til then. And build a sturdy tornado shelter on your property. It saves lives. Take care. 💖
FYI. They do have tornadoes in NC. It is wise to have a shelter though. I'm in Wisconsin. When I had my mobile it was anchored well. But the park I was in had a shelter for residents. Now in Senior housing. I am disabled and mo longer able to do yard work etc.
Maybe build one UNDER THE
TRAILER, as the joke says…..
Why does god take out trailers? Cause that’s gods way of Cleaning out Trailer Trash!!!!!! LMFAO!
I just accidentally found your show last night.
You two are down to earth people.
Very interesting so far.
I've subscribed so I'm waiting old shows and catching up .
The move was interesting and I love the apple and pear orchard.
Success! Good to see there was no major damage.
Us too!!!
We have been following you guys progress and love watching. We have an 80x60 sliding glass that is yours for the asking. We recently moved to Benton ky. so we should be close. Not sure about the cost savings but it could be significant. Good luck guys. God Bless.
Just a suggestion instead of a sliding glass door what about French doors. It gives you a wider opening if you need to bring items in and out. We had sliding doors and i was always having a hard a time carrying things in from they outside. :)
Sandra WestleyUK, French doors are nice but if you live in a windy area they can be taken out of your hand and smashed, as you can guess I speak from experience, we had doors fitted on our present house, 2 sliding doors that part, they give you the same open space as French doors but are safe with wind, there like 2 pocket doors that slide apart.
Happy to see those hairline crack are all you had in this move, I am still in awe of way your home was transported. By the way Angela i keep forgetting to mention how long and pretty your hair is, it very flattering.
I am elated to see that the move was successful! You always have a doable master plan that looks to the future. Thoughts and prayers for some restful days ahead!
That go pro was fun. You could hear it creaking. I saw something slide across the floor. This is going to be interesting. I agree it’s easy to get caught up in doing way too many projects. I’m just thrilled the house is there and it’s officially home.
Couldn’t wait for this video!!!
Sam & Angela. I was fascinated by your home move. I enjoyed watching it on my phone so much I watched a second time on the television. Great job.
I did too I’ve never seen such remote operations.
So glad no major damage. God bless all of you.
Those gaps in your MDF trim can be filled with Bondo then sanded smooth. Amazing how well Bondo works on MDF repairs.
So awesome that it turned out so well. It was so weird seeing it going down the yard in NC, I just knew something was going to be bad!!! Can’t wait to see how things play out from here. 💗
I am sending you super powers from Norway so you are able to do the things to the house you want before moving in!
You guys have a glow to you. Looking very happy!
I had a 16*80 that I had moved from town to the farm about 15 miles I was a nervous wreck. I wired the cabinets together so they would fly open and all my dishes. I took out all the heavy furniture,laid the TV in the floor, removed things off the wall. Once it made it to the farm it had to be padded across the corn field and pulled by a tractor and pushed by the hauler. Once inside I discovered a horseshoe hanging on the wall. I do have 1 suggestion make sure all your windows raise and close. They sometimes get in a bind. Your trailer looks like it is home.
I LIKE YOUR PLANNING AHEAD, PRIORITIZING, SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE BOTH ON THE SAME PAGE WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT
THEY DID AN AWESOME JOB MOVING YOUR HOME SAFELY SAME AND ANGELA, GOD WAS SURELY WATCHING OVER IT ALL THE WAY. I LOOK FORWARD TO THE UPCOMING VIDEOS AND GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
I’m so happy things were minimal!!! Easy fixes..now get it like you want it..it’s the perfect time..
Congratulations! So happy that everything went well! ❤️🙏🏼
So happy your home make the trip without any major damage.
SO GLAD YOU DIDNT HAVE ALOT OF DAMAGE AND IT WONT TAKE YOU LONG TO GET IT ALL FIXED AND GET MOVED IN AND GET TO FINISH THE OTHER THINGS YOU WERE GOING TO DO
Hello 👋 Deborah, how are you doing?
Excited to see you all settled in your home with electricity lol and being able to sit on a nice deck with a drink in hand , planning your next projects .😀 Have you decided on what animals your having on the homestead?. Apart from your chickens..
We haven't thought much into that area yet. :) I'd like to raise some pastured poultry for meat, but not sure when that will happen.
Glad to see that there was minimal damage 👍👍👍good luck to your family.
What a beautiful view you all have out your windows. Just as the camera was panning up in the kitchen, a bird trilled outside, and it just sounded so serene and lovely.
Hi Sam Angela & boys,your home made it very well for such a long trip.I am so happy for you that there was no major damage.Have a great week! 👏🏻🌷😊👍🏻
Hello 👋 Linda, how are you doing?
It is fabulous! The views are great and the damage minimal. Happy new home and land. 🥰🙏💕
Thanks for the tour. Your home still looks well put together.
I love how excited y'all are
WOW, Very different looking out the window's now to flater ground! Beautiful!
. You have made the interior lovely and the addition of porches and landscaping when you can will make this homestead beautiful.
Glad the move went good and not much damage.
I hope you are safe! Watching live weather and tornado watches near I-40 through Tenn.! Prayers for safety for entire family and all of Tenn.!!
So happy most of the items to fix are minor! Happy to continue watching both of you settling into your new homestead. 😄
Glad to hear that your repair list is so small ànd nothing majorally expensive to correct...!! YAYYYYY FOR YOU!!;)♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎
How wonderful that things are easily fixable!
When you said see you next time, I noticed that you each were wearing blue and you both looked really good in your different blue colors.
Awesome on the minimal damage. Exciting plans!! So glad the move is behind you!!
You can be glad it is just that summer is just starting. Lots of outside time ahead.
Also want to thank you for doing this video so quickly. I was dying. Lol
Something we are contemplating is faux board and batten siding. It uses exterior grade plywood and batten strips.
I was so glad to see the move went well with the house in tact. Can't wait to see the finished product. God Bless yall 🙏🏾
You have a blank slate again. ☺️ Have fun, put in more outlets and lovely covered decks.
Great video. Glad your home transported in one piece. It was nice to see each of your input especially Angela discussing the window views! The views are fabulous. Love the huge flat land. I hope you build a huge deck for barbecues. House could use a painting. I'm so happy for your family. Now tell the boys what awesome parents they have!
there is no real rush to movie into your house. You have summer coming up and fall, so good weather. Once you get the septic and the electric service reconnected you can use the full bathroom. That will alleviate a lot of the discomforts and stresses of the camper.
God bless you guys! I am so happy for you! May God continue to pour out blessings and graces on you and the boys.
The move was not only amazing…I thinks it’s safe to say it was a success😅 love the thoughtful planning idea it makes perfect sense and the more you do now..life is going to be so much less stressful later…you can enjoy just living 😉☺️🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕jane
Thanks for inviting us into your home.
Sounds like you got some great renovation plans.
Can't wait to see them happen
The best to you and the family
Siding before deck you’ll love the deck that much more.
Sam, With the help of the Lord, you and Angelia got this. Just take your time and don’t get overwhelmed. You two have already done do much, just keep the faith and push forward. Thanks for another great video. May God continue to bless you and Angelia and those two precious boys of yours.
Glad your home moved ok. It takes time to get things done.
Take your time and do what you two do so well together... get things done.
We have 4 mobile homes that have been moved several times without any damage beyond some popped trim . I figured it would travel well.
So nice to see you both happy. You gotta love the "project creep".
Oh yes.. project creep!!! :)
Most of the damage looks like what you'd expect from normal settling. To my untrained eye anyway. Well done. Looking forward to all the future videos. Take a breather now for a minute or two. However I'm sure you are both back at it because who can sit back and relax when you can see all the things you want to get done! Hi from Australia
Your movers did a great job. You were lucky to have them.
We put sliding doors in our kitchen about 7or 8 years ago and they were a great addition to our mobile home. We added a very large deck. It has actually become the main entrance that we use all the time.
Awesome to hear! We dream of the same!
Everything looks so cool and only thing you need is beautiful deck so that it will up lift the beauty of your home. Prayers
Wow, you had so little damage moving the trailer. I’m glad I found your channel.
Welcome aboard! :) We just recently finished a FULL master bedroom, kitchen pantry, living room, and more renovation with the home before moving back in! Hope you enjoy it!
I bet you two are relieved,no damage!Nothing wrong with forward thinking, just kind of sucks that the economy isn’t on your side, but I know y’all got a plan 😀.
Now the busy work begins on top of running your businesses 😳. Good thing it’s daylight savings time.
Stay safe
God bless
These last few videos have been great on the moving of the trailer God bless you guys and stay safe over there
Awesome! Ty for sharing. Lol love the bloopers/deleted scenes 😅
I honestly wasn't surprised to see that the damage was minimal and superficial. Great planning on holding off on some projects until after the move. We also had planned to repaint our interior after our house move. It made repairing the cosmetic cracks seem not as frustrating. Pick and choose the projects you know you can finish so you don't get overwhelmed.
Love the views from all your windows! You plans all make sense and as it is nice weather now maybe it will seem a little less cramped in the camper while you work on the things you want in your home. I really like the idea of large covered porches to sit and appreciate the products of your labors!
Bet you guys are so relieved that it made it all in one piece! That is a smart idea to renovate any and all before your inspected, septic in and all that..so happy for you guys!
So glad it made it there safely.. I know you guys are going to really get it all set up the way you like it. Have a great day 😀
I know you have had some bad storms blow thru we are praying you all are safe and your property isn't damaged
Thank you, we're safe and sound here. :)
Yes, this is the time to do a number of those renovations, fixes, etc... And yes, drywall and sanding creates fine dust. And yes, the Rv trailer is multiple steps away from the house ........ Maybe once you get the CO you can begin to stradle living between the two residences? It certainly makes absolute sense to do a top down, complete cleaning withiut the furniture et al! Even if you keep a clean house, there are nooks, crannies, and corners that just don't get reached as well as others; and your house is pretty darned clean. It will be interesting to see which projects you tackle in what order as you reassemble, repair, and mini remodel along.
what a beautiful place! Very exciting!
Yahoo..... its good to know that some companies that move mobile homes are careful and cautious. They must have a great reputation. I'm glad you have minimal work. I am also looking forward for your makeovers
Gotta admit, I thought there would be a lot more drywall damage, just from getting it off your old lot. Good to see that was minimal, almost undetectable. The movers sure did a nice job of setting the house on it's foundation. That thing looks perfect. Great location too.
So so happy for you guys. Still a ton of work but that much will be great content. God bless you guys.
Really happy for you guys that it's minimum maintenance required after the move, looking forward to the new renovations 👍
Congrats on a successful move! You must be sooo relieved there is not much damage!
I’m so happy that the MBH made it to TN with nothing broken n it looks good to see out your windows now n see the flat land that’s what I’d like to buy is a big piece of flat grassy land with a bigger MBH on it ! I know it was very smart to buy the camper to stay in while the MBH is going to be worked on empty it’s so much easier I get that mine is a small single-wide as well n needs so much work ! Many blessings to your family ! Keep a close eye on the boys for safety reasons at all times to many child predators in TN that’s what they were saying around the Summer Wells case !
Honestly it seems like a great idea to do the projects now whilst you have a blank slate so that you're not living inside the renovation project. I know that material costs are high now but personally I'd take that because you would be able to get the work done quicker than trying to work around day to day activity inside the home. Was definitely interesting to see the move from the old property, it speaks volumes to the companies level of professionalism that they were able to make that journey with so little damage, especially after moving it down the hill the way they did. Good luck with getting everything done for your forever setup!
Looks great. Perfect time to fix/finish a few projects.
Hey there Sam and Angela. I wanted to comment and say I am in a similar boat with your mindset where I bought a DW and it needs a ton of renos and only bought the house not the land where it is out in the country. I wanted to tell you that especially watching your home being moved and your exciting tour of the house afterwards is truly an inspiration and that is something I will be experiencing here in Eastern Central Texas myself when I save the money to move my home (OMG its expensive as my house is a 2004 Clayton 32X72). I know my home is going to be a huge undertaking as I also am a big DIYer and firstly replacing the entire roof myself since I am on a strict budget but please know there are people like me who really enjoy seeing yalls life experiences especially you having a manufactured home (I hate them called a trailer, its a home) and Sam I wish I had your brain on how to do so much that I am learning as I go and being "CZcams Certified" in a lot of ways and Angela, you have a keen eye for detail and that we share. Blessings on your continued journey and I am always excited to see what's next. Cheers from Texas.
Thanks so much for sharing your life. I am a lurker at times. Your last video showed up in my feed and I wanted to see how your home moved and how well it survived. We moved a trailer 24 years ago. It was a pretty neat experience, like yours.
