Nice to see how the elite of the manufactured home communities live! I like number one. The lanai is done so well. I didn't see any air conditioning in the second home's lanai. House number two had no doors on the laundry room. It had a big, beautiful kitchen, but was just to open. If the kitchen is a mess, the whole house is a mess! Also, those bathroom sinks were hideous. They took up all of the counter space!

Both lanais were A/C - Heated. I have a little angst over those sinks myself LOL. Not sure I would call these elite but for what you pay in monthly lot rent this community offers more than most. They are both nice homes, if you can afford them.

Great idea but there are many much more qualified sources for that data. I am building out a course for HOA Board of Directors members in land-lease communities and I'll be expanding the information on the web site to include even more resources (Incl. hurricane mitigation) for folks who have already purchased a home. Choosing a home and community to lessen this risk is among the topics I'll be addressing with a group this fall. Perhaps such a video would fit in with those efforts.

Murphy bed: The bed is named for William Lawrence Murphy (1876-1959), who applied for his first patents around 1900. According to legend, he was wooing an opera singer, but living in a one-room apartment in San Francisco, and the moral code of the time frowned upon a woman entering a man's bedroom.

Would you consider a 1980 mobile home in Florida too old. My house in Ohio is 100 years old and it's great. I've never had a mobile home so I have no idea if that's too old to buy
@RussellWatsonFMHL
Жыл бұрын
There are three basic age groups: Pre 1976 = mobile home built however the individual manufacturer built them in any given year , pre 1994 = manufactured home built to HUD Specifications, and Post 94 built to Hud Specifications with increased ability to handle high wind loads. Within those categories it comes down to the condition of the home, what you are willing to repair/replace, and what appeals to you. No matter the year - the place to start is with a professional home inspection.

Lately most MH are up 30 - 100% over what they were a few years ago. Buying new would be just like a new car, the value goes down as you drive off the lot. But longer term, folks who bought new 8-10 years ago would likely see a profit today.
