One advantage of "schoolies" is that they're often retired early, due to regular replacement by the school systems that can be time-based rather than miles- or running condition-based. It's sometimes possible to pick up a mechanically sound retired school bus for as little as $3-5000.
I certainly wouldn't want to drive one around town to do my shopping, but so long as OP doesn't expect to stay at 72F year round in extreme climates, the low entry cost and ability to (relatively) cheaply move the "house" from place to place might work out favorably.
