Skoolies for Sale

One Skoolie is listed right now, priced at $19,000. That is a single listing rather than a market average — prices for Skoolies vary widely with size, finish, and whether the home is on wheels or on a foundation.

It depends on how the home is classified and where you put it, and that is decided locally rather than nationally. A Skoolie on wheels is often classified as an RV, and many jurisdictions limit full-time occupancy of an RV on a residential lot. One on a permanent foundation is treated as a dwelling, has to meet local building code, and may qualify as an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) where ADUs are permitted. Because counties and cities set the zoning and permitting rules, confirm your specific parcel with your local planning or building department before you buy.

Most traditional mortgage lenders will not finance a home under about 400 square feet or a home on wheels, because there is no permanent real property securing the loan. The common routes are RV loans for RV-certified units, unsecured personal loans, builder or dealer financing, and chattel loans. A Skoolie on a permanent foundation on land you own is the case most likely to qualify for a conventional mortgage.

The usual options are a community or RV park that accepts long-term residents, private land in a jurisdiction whose zoning permits it, or a backyard as an ADU where local code allows one. Our communities directory lists places that are set up to accept Skoolie residents; every record is checked against the business's own live site before we publish it.
