Manufactured Homes Communities
For Over Age 55


Manufactured Homes: They Cost Less and There are Recent Improvements in Styles

Some manufactured homes communities you lease the land and some communities you purchase the lot and home. Many visitors ask what to do for a less expensive option for retirement and I suggest they consider manufactured home communities. The real advantage of a manufactured or modular home over a site-built home is the difference in price. The price difference is greater with manufactured homes.

Other types of manufactured homes are covered in our sections on Retirement Mobile Home Parks and RV Retirement Parks.
