Manufactured homes, formerly known as mobile homes, have become a significant source of new and affordable housing. If you’re thinking of calling one home, then you’ve found an ideal resource in this website for information about these structures, as well as purchasing, lifestyle and maintenance, selling, and finding your own dream home.

Though once associated exclusively with trailer parks, the more recent strict regulation of the construction and assembly of manufactured/ mobilehomes on both a federal and state level has lead to full communities of luxury homes rivaling their site-built counterparts in quality and features, while beating them in affordability hands-down.

In 2007, the Manufactured Housing Institute reported that the Institute for Building Technology and Safety had recorded 95,769 manufactured homes purchases in that year. Among the 5,652,000 home purchases made in total (among both new and existing homes) in that year, according to the National Association of Realtors, this made brand new manufactured homes almost 17% of the total purchased homes. That statistic doesn’t include the existing (used) manufactured houses that had also been bought.

According to AARP, approximately 31% of manufactured homes are purchased by people aged 50 years or older. They’ve become the:

*perfect achievable first home

*affordable winter home

*comfortable retirement housing for “snowbirds” as well as those who stay year-round.

Take the time to benefit from all of the information available throughout this site. I know you will benefit from the information, as I have and it makes you aware that you have choices when it comes to buying and selling manufactured/mobilehomes. I will take great pride in guiding you in the search of your dream home.

I hope this site helps narrow down your choices and you find just the right place to call home.
