New to Yurts

[Pamela]

My husband and I are completely new to yurts, but we're considering yurts to be a viable stepping stone between living in an apartment and building a house. We don't have kids so the yurt is a good option for us, I'm thinking, mostly because we also don't know where we'll be living in a few years and we'd be able to pack the yurt up and move it with us. There's also a slight bit of urgency, because we are kind of fed up with our neighbors... Otherwise, we might be willing to skip the intermediate home step.

I'm looking into some resources and books to read this weekend, including the input by all of you on this forum.

But, I just wanted to toss out this general question...

What kinds of things do you know now that you wish you had known when first getting into building yurts?

I look forward to getting to converse with you all and learn more about these beautiful structures.
