Hey everyone! We recently bought a mobile home/manufactured home in California and I wanted to share a little bit about our experience. Please feel free to ask any questions if you are considering purchasing a mobile home as well. I am open to going into more detail about the process if anyone is interested. We learned a lot while researching and going through all the steps to purchase our firs...
I see that this video is 5 years old now. Can you give us an update on your experience? Thanks!!!
Imagine getting denied by a mobile home park! It's a fucking mobile home park💀
I hope you are doing well! Great video!
I had a mobile home that was in a park. Then I bought land and put the mobile home on the land both on a garage and an additional room onto the mobile Home.. I now live in a brick house that I have gotten paid for I bought my house for $62000 is now worth $234000. The only way the mobile home made money. What's the land one up but the mobile home the dot? Let me know in 5 years Hey your home looks then they will start falling apart. They are not made with the best material but like you froze it with something better than freezing in the house that we were in is survivors for the time being. But I'm glad we have our sticks and bricks and it's paid for enjoy your mobile living.
Must be your state that you have to pay taxes on a mobile home. When I owned one in New York back in the late 90's and early 2000's we didn't pay taxes, and as far as I know they don't now.
Beautiful!we are just fixing to close on ours it’s similar wish we had a fireplace!is yours a palm harbor?
So happy I found your video! This is very encouraging, I’d love an update vid! :)
If you ever do move you can always Air BNB the place or rent it out plenty of people would rent it from you if need be
How much is a mobile home like this one ?
Thanks for sharing. I'm in Southern California and considering a manufactured home. How did you find your lender? Do you mind sharing the name?
how do you find a mobile home in a non-55+ community?
Looks like better choice than an apartment - much cheaper to rent and bigger inside, and you can resell it later.
There is nothing wrong with a mobile home if you want one go for it they are nice if you take care of it.i like them.
Looking at that photo, you must be very short or your husband is very tall. Good info. by the way.
Very nice home love to see how you decorate
Thank you! 💜
You're very purdy Ms. Purdy.
YOU ARE AWESOME! I believe everything happens for a reason, and that was how I found this video. I also live in California and want to stay in our area instead of moving 50-70 miles away to what we can afford. My Mom is looking into purchasing a mobile and I was intrigued after she showed me her listings. I am seriously so interested in mobile homes now and hopefully we can get one too. Thank God for those stigmas in the end tho right? Thanks for this video it was so informative as I too am doing the research.
All the sites keep raising lot rents yearly, making them no longer affordable because there is no end in site..
You could"ve tricked me. This doesn't even look like a mobile home from the inside.
Your home looks awesome. In California, I’m surprised this option isn’t gaining popularity with the high cost of housing and the mild weather.
There are places in California where manufactured housing in a mobile park appreciate in value. Park living can be a great option, depending on your circumstances. In Texas, parks tend to be extremely pricey for the nice ones, or extremely run down for the affordable ones. Lot rent has to be factored in. You can get more home for your money if you already own the land it’s going on, but that usually means rural living. That’s the route I am going to take.
Mobile homes are a great option. But not if you think its going to go up in price . No equity. You most likely won't get much out of selling so along as you plan on keeping its great. Thats why I'm buying one. 300k In sanjose ca. Ya I know. Damm silicon valley
I keep contemplating either getting a condo or a mobile home in the future but after watching your video I think a mobile home fits me better. I'm single not married but Im still in college. Im thinking in the next couple years after I graduate and I start working I might get a mobile home. I like that they are seperate unlike with a condo or apartment you might hear the neighbours through the walls. Also I heard that many condos you can't have pets or grow a garden and I have a pet rabbit so I would need a place that allows pets.
You look young now my question is the neighbors what are the ages of the neighbors? and do they live their 12 months of the year? only because snow birds tend to live there say November till April and leave then they rent the house out the rest of the year in other words does all people there own their homes? which is great cause owners tend to be friendly, respectful, and they don’t trash the place well most seem to do I think I covered my question thanks

How much is the rental space fee?
I would have never known it was a mobile home had you not told me.
I am about to be 18 and I'm planning on moving out then I do have about 30k would it be better to rent and apartment or buy a mobile home?
It really depends on where you want to live. I live on Long Island NY where rent is CRAZY & buying/renting a house for a young person is also crazy! Hate to tell you but most mobile home parks/villages don’t allow renters here I bought a 1970’s single wide for $35,000. I have a small yard (which was a must for me) As I am retired, I have the time to do repairs-which you being young probably don’t have. I probably have skills/ tools that you probably do not have. Do your research before committing as rent goes up every year. Mine here is $770 lot rental that includes water & garbage & cesspool draining. That is great for NY!!! I do live in fear as most homes here are older like mine & I’ve heard true stories of mobile home parks being shut down by municipalities that claim the land due to intermittent domain causing these MH owners to leave. If your area has a well maintained park & the MH is not too dated I’d say go for it! If it wasn’t for my MH, I wouldn’t be able to live in NY as well as I do now Good luck to you!
Did you buy a new mobile home or that already in place?
When people get on these comments section they pretend they are sharks from shark tank. Of course buying a real house is better no question. But you can have a home and save for a real house. It will depreciate a little but if everyone use this logic mercedes, BMW, all these cars that drop in value drastically from their original would never sell and we would all be driving Honda Civic or Accord. Just hate how everyone a damn financial wizard when it comes to the comments.
Have you ever thought about buying another mobile home and attaching it to your current mobile home to make a bigger house?
Smart thinking 💭
Thank you, appreciate your insights. I just bought into a park in eastern Ontario, Canada meant for seniors and we too were vetted before getting a site. We’re downsizing from a house. I can tell you in our area mobile homes are very popular and we were delighted to get into this well managed site. There is a problem: manufactured housing is so popular now that we can’t get one for another six months! I’m not worried about any stigma either, mobile/manufactured housing is the way to go for many more people these days.
First, nice informative video. You are very well spoken, Extremely Beautiful, why only 2 vids? You should think of something and get vids out there and i would bet money you would be able to MAKE money from youtube.
Very informative my wife and I are in the process of buying a manufactured home and so far we find that it is very true concerning financing and Community Park locations we find theseto be our greatest challenge but we are determined to continue in our quest to see this thru because we appreciate the advantages of manufactured home living thanks for your encouraging words.
Are you sure you bought a mobile home? A single & double wides are mobile. But a modular is NOT a mobile. A modular is no different then a stick figured home. Reason I ask this is because the walls are finished. They do not put tape & textured walls in mobile homes. And that is the walls you have!
I AM SORRY! BUT U ARE SO FUCKIN HOT THAT I CAN NOT LISTEN TO U, I WANNA DO SONETHINE ELSE.... MUCHO CALENTE...♥️♥️♥️♥️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Buting your home is amazing! What websiyes did u use for research in the los angeles area?
I live in Texas and they're very common here. You can buy 10 acres for $75000 and put your mobile home on it and most people think nothing of you living in one. I have family in Cali and it's crazy expensive there. Good for you for being smart with your money. I would love to see an update video.
Wow that is really nice very spacious congratulations and your little girl is adorable 😊
I had a ton of question did not know to leave or email .. I am in Southern Cali and been thinking of going this way of a mobile home. But I have heard horror stories about the Parks raise the HOA to a level where you have to just pack up and leave the home there and go . Or you get a price for the HOA and its only good for 5 years or so. Happened to someone I know but he was able to sell the home and have it moved away in time which kind of Shocked the property owner. Plus the lots are own by more than one owner so things can change .. I just want a forever cheap home for Myself and Los Angeles is too high. Maybe even thinking would have to leave CA .. dont know .. any advice would be great ..thanks
I have been considering getting a mobile home but have concerns about plumbing and such. Are there structural issues I should be worried about?
Angelique Purdy Congratulations it's a beautiful home gorgeous home. Wish you all the best stay purdy! Lovely family as well.
Love your new home # wwg1wga # London # England
Wow very nice house,
Nice home
My wife and I just bought a manufactured home in a park 1 month ago and we love our home.
Great news
Hello David congratulations. Me and husband is looking for house to buy but where we live houses are too expensive and we don't want to stuck for mortgage whole our life. Can I ask you some questions which manufacture company you purchased from? Did you guys go with financing if than which bank? And how much they ask you to do downpayment?
where did you buy it from? for how much omg. please help a girl out
only tip i can say is buy a mobile home with drywall...... and a real roof, my home cost 70k single wide
Property taxes have skyrocketed where I live in Nevada. $3,000,00 is what I am paying when three years ago I was paying $2,200.00. Also I want to downsize. My townhome is a two story, 4 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms. I paid cash for it and I have no debt. My kids are all grown up, they have families of their own, and my wife pass away 4 years ago. The townhome is way too big for one person to live. I am 67 years old senior and have decided to downsize to a brand new doublewide mobile. It is a 3 bedrooms with two bathrooms home in a 55+ Senior Citizen park. The doublewide is $140,000 (no garage, just a overhead carport). The lease is a 99 year agreement and it is $350.00 a month. The park management claims it will only go up if Social Security COLA goes up. HOA is $140.00 a month which includes Trash, Sewer, and water. Only the electric and cable bill I have to pay. The park has a pool, 9 hole golf course, a gym and other amenities. Also includes a nice park with 4 ponds and walking trail. I felt that now I am in my late sixties, owning a home, with land, is not what I want to do anymore. Downsizing to a single story mobile is what I need. Tho I am in good health now, later I might not be. Oh one good thing is their is a small hospital and a Veterans Clinic next door to the place.
I've heard so many say not to own a mobile home cause it goes down in value. But my thinking is, yes it does, but your not making anymore money off of a regular home when you are paying interest for 20-30 years. Even though a regular home may go up in those years, your still getting less than you paid for it after you paid 100k in interest. The only way you actually make money off of a stick built home is either you pay cash up front for it. Or you buy it and rent it out and make the money off the the rental income. Other than that I don't see the point of using a home as an investment. I'd rather put money into REAL investments like mutual funds instead of a mortgage. So that's why I have been looking at mobile homes and thinking that would be the way to go. Thanks for this great video.
Hello, I have a question. Is space rent very high. Is space rent very high.? My real estate agent told me that space rent is about $1,200 plus the mobile home mortgage. So basically it would be equal to buying a house.
True…
