    The interior is great--the flooring is a pleasing color, and the nicely painted woodwork and white doors are a plus. I like the white kitchen. The windows were totally covered, so I couldn't tell what shape they were in. I like a fenced yard but a chain link fence out front always looks terrible--a nice white picket fence would make all the difference. There's no carport or screened in porch for outdoor living, so you'd be stuck indoors.

      The last couple years have seen the price of everything skyrocket. Conventional homes you could buy here 3 years ago for $200K are now $350K! Eggs were $2.25/doz and now I'm paying over $4! So in terms of what they were - Nothing's Cheap! In terms of the alternative choices - they are still as cheap as they have been for decades. (With the exception of some parks recently bought by investment groups)

      Park models come in two varieties - HUD & ANSI. There are mobile home parks that offer HUD park models but I suspect a R/V park is more what you are after. Google search is about your best bet.

      It is called a chattel loan and is similar to personal loans like you might get to buy a car or a boat. Interest rates are higher than mortgage products and not all banks offer them. If you are a member of a local credit union, that is where i recommend you start looking.

    • @RussellWatsonFMHL
      @RussellWatsonFMHL  Рік тому

      Insurance is readily available for manufactured homes in Florida and somewhat less for mobile homes. There are too many factors to allow a generalization of price. I list agencies and originators on the website. I suggest you give them a call. www.floridamfghome.com/Buyer-Resources There are so many factors - deductibles, wind coverage, total household goods, etc. I've heard prices for similar homes run $1,400 - $2,500/yr.

      That's certainly true. We have recently seen on the News: homes, businesses, and even bridges destroyed by a hurricane. But a recent poll showed Florida is #1 in states folks are moving into. We see car crashes where folks lose their lives daily on the News. But more people drove this Thanksgiving than in many recent years and most of us drive daily. We have seen (almost daily on the News) people attacked, and some have lost their lives; in shopping centers, churches, night clubs, grocery stores and many other public places. Yet we still go shopping, go to church, and attend public events. Unfortunately the News doesn't show the hundreds of parks full of homes, like this one and others from the 70s, 80's, & 90's, that have been through decades of hurricanes with no or minimal damage. Nor do they show the millions of cars that make it where they are going every day just fine. Or, the millions that venture out in public every day to enjoy the life they have been given. Yup, we have hurricanes occasionally in Florida and if that's among your phobias than live in Nebraska...(Tornados) or Montana...(Blizzards)...or Hawaii...(Volcanos)...or...wherever.

      Katalina S , we each have our goals and ideas on what is worth our hard-earned assets. There is no question this does not meet everyone's needs. The idea is to present enough information that you can know the alternatives and make an informed decision. Glad we can help you in that regard. It sounds like a conventional home with its own pool and land is more your style. Best of luck and Happy Holidays!
