My husband and I purchased, with cash, a foreclosure double wide mobile home on two acres in a great location, surrounded by stick built houses. This will be our first time owning a home and we have a 5-7 year plan to sell it and make a profit. I will likely hire a professional landscaper, as my thumb is anything but green, but we would like to design the porch and the front and DIY. I would love to make it look less like a cookie cutter mobile home.
I definitely want to change the trim color and I'm open to changing the exterior color.
What style porch would be best? It occurred to me to build a storage room adjacent to the front porch, done in the same siding and trim as the house, to add dimension to its flat face.
Everything we are doing is with resell in mind.
It is located in central Alabama and the surrounding stick built homes are newer construction (10 years and newer) and in the 120-150k range.
