Looking into options for a first home, and I have plenty of time before I have to move. There's a good deal on some undeveloped wooded land in the area I'd like to live. I'm thinking of buying it, and over the next 12-18 months cutting a driveway, cutting a dirt pad, dropping new utilities, etc. and putting a double wide on it.

I've heard that if you move a pre-owned a double wide somewhere, it can be difficult to get everything like walls, floors, ceilings, and plumbing to line up properly. Is there any truth to this or can a qualified mover handle it without any issues? Should I just suck it up and buy a new one?

I'm also open to alternatives to double wides, I just don't have the money to build a stick built home on the land.
