People think we're nuts

Hey everyone. We are selling our primary residence and moving into a travel trailer behind my parents house.  We live in one of the nicest neighborhoods in town. I have a family of 6.  A kid in high school and all the way down to an 8 year old. After looking at our bills we are just spending to much money.  We are developing a long term plan to develop some passive income.

We have around 250K in Equity. We will be paying off a 3 unit a car and some Bill's.  By the time everything is paid off we should have around 200k liquid. 

With the net cash flow and our jobs we should be saving around 7k a month. 

My wife is the driving force behind this plan. This is pretty hard for my kids and I, but our plan is to have 3 rentals paid for in cash before we move back into a primary again.  This also may sound a little crazy but I think the realestate market / stock market is going to be going into a recession in the next 1 or 2 years.

 Just wanted to know what some people might think that have more experience / knowledge with our plan. Thanks.
