It depends on what you are looking for long term. It won't appretiate like say a house would. However, it would be a fine way to start out. You will still have to pay to dock it. So take that into consideration before you get too far in this plan. I'm not sure how the utilities work out. If you would have to have them seperate.

Hi, to answer your question, I'm sure purchasing a piece of real estate would make more financial sense, BUT, we live on our HOUSEBOAT, and it's the best decision we have ever made !
The houseboating lifestyle is unique, and very fulfilling, and allows for a different perspective on living aboard.
If you're curious, have a look at our website on Houseboats, it will help you to better understand the the ins and outs, and the advantages.
Be sure to look into it, it may be the BEST DECISION you've ever made.
IAN...

Depends on your objective in life. Great home if you like the water, like to party, or like to fish. It can suck when its windy, Rocking and rattling. There are no shared walls like apartments may have privacy. Wouldn't say it's a money making investment. You could check tax law you may not have to pay property tax. Usually have to pay dock fees. Could be a good way to have better quality of life.
If cheaper than rent and you can't afford a house why not try it.
