I am not sure about the price, but i do know that they usually are owned or rented
Well ,good stuff are not for the poor.One can.Western countries, houseboats tend to be either owned privately or rented out to holiday-goers, and on some canals in Europe
I love being on the water and especially on a houseboat!  There is nothing like falling asleep on the water! That must be really nice. It is important to not mistake a houseboat for a boathouse, which is actually a shet used to store boats. Have you ever seen a boathouse? I have not. Can you tell me more about houseboats ? Sure. Did you know that there are some houseboats that are not motorized? Those are actually moored and kept at a stationary point I didn't know that.  I assumed all houseboats moved.  When did houseboat come into popularity? I am not sure about that. But I know that in canada and america there is a term called Float House which is used to reffer to a float with a house on it I had no idea. Are houseboats expensive? Does a person have to pay to live on the water?
In Western countries, houseboats tend to be either owned privately or rented out to holiday-goers, and on some canals in Europe, people dwell in houseboats all year round.
