Generator considerations

Since you're in the mood to build a house perhaps you should think about a genset that will provide standby power for your house after it's built. Yes, it will be too large for your RV, but you'll have it when the house is built, and it can be serving you now.

I suggest you strongly consider an LPG (propane) generator as it and its tank are not tied to a pipeline system. I see many folks putting in gensets for backup power that are tied to natural gas lines and are difficult to relocate. I have installed a backup genset at my house that runs off propane because I have concerns about an interrupted natural gas supply. I have seen natural gas fail in cold weather due to high demand.
