Very very Nice! Ooorah!!
We liked this home very much. The update was very tasteful. I would not change a thing. Thank Molly and you for the very nice tour.
Thanks for the kind words!
Another great video and R/E value.....Thank you, Russ and Happy Thanksgiving !
Happy holidays! Thanks for the kind words!
beautiful home !!!! good price
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.
Great observations!
I liked the fences
Remember what Nader said , I'm havin more fun than a tornader in a trailer park .
LOL...Nader's still shovelling snow in Winsted, CT while we hit the pool and the beaches. Aren't many trailer parks of any size left in Florida. 29f there - around 78f here.
Thank you Russ. Great Channel !! We are on our way done from NY to look for some parks in the Fort Myers are near the beach. Do you know of any parks with deals after the storm?
No, but I have seen a few homes for sale at what looked to be good prices. Be sure to have a home inspection done by someone qualified in manufactured housing before you buy or contingent to closing.
Parks aren't cheap anymore. Neither are the 40 or 50 yr old trailers. Going for 50k
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)
@@RussellWatsonFMHL someone called me and offered me 54k for my 3 yr old homes of merit single wide I paid 28k for 2 yrs ago. If I could have found another cheap home I would have made some cash
@@edchaos2679 I had a friend over for Thanksgiving dinner that had a similar dilemma. Her home had almost doubled in value and she would reap a huge windfall if she sold. Only trouble is, she would have to spend it all or more (after all the transaction fees) to get another place.
Well said
Try 269000 in Santa Clara county a 78 at that .
The home is impeccably, and the price is amazing. For someone willing to overlook the seedy, (but inexpensive!) park, a beautiful home in a very desirable part of Florida, is waiting. I am pretty sure this home would go for more money in a more upscale community, (and I would pay it!)
Glad you liked the video!
I am seriously looking for a mobile home in Marion or citrus counties. I am alone so don't need a large place. My main concern is the monthly fee and that I be in a safe area.

nice inside, needs good power washing outside
Yes it does!
The only problem we found with mobile homes was finding insurance. This was years ago and I am wondering if it is any better today.
I think it is better but the recent losses in hurricane Ian are worrying some carriers. The Governor has announced a special session to deal with the problem. I renewed mine with no trouble and I've yet to hear from anyone who has had trouble finding it.

How about mobil homes in Sebring, Florida. Thank you
I have a few videos on homes and parks in Sebring. Check out the channel: czcams.com/users/FloridaManufacturedHomeLiving
Just curious what type of loan would you need to purchase a mobile/ manufactured homes on rented/ leased lands? Here in Maryland they denied mortgages unless you own the home on your own land
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.
My husband and I are looking for a park model in a 55 + community that has a place to park our travel trailer and is within 30-45 minutes of Disney World. Any suggestions? We will be in Florida a good part of this winter and would like to start looking.
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. Most mobile/manufactured home communities have storage areas for R/Vs & travel trailers.

How much is it to buy the land
Look in Ocala , FL
Wonderful, can you find the same thing in Arizona
Don't know. Never been to Arizona.
Do you have anything in or around the Port Charlotte area?
I don't sell homes. You can find contacts and resources to help in your search on our website: www.floridamfghome.com/
Do you have anything in Jacksonville FL like this
I don't sell mobile/manufactured homes and I have not reviewed any in Jacksonville.

410.00 for lot rent??? That outrageous!
Actually that's about as low as it goes in FL for a decent park.
More Molly please.
Molly is featured in a number of videos here. Just click on the link at the end of this one.
My husband wants more Molly also! How about finding a hunky young stud salesman for us old chickens!
Any new-ish manufactured homes that are not open concept?
I really don't know. You can go on our website and wade through the online listings. You can also look at the new homes offered by the manufacturers.
Great video. I would appreciate a recap of the utilities / monthly fees, at the beginning or end of the videos .
I asked that and the sales person could only guess. The seller was an estate and did not provide the information. Also, utilities can be very dependent on usage. Some folks run A/C continuously and cook a lot while others leave the home at 82 deg. and mostly eat out.
Where is the cat
Cat napping 😸
Can you find one in Bradenton, I'm looking to move from ohio
It is certainly possible.
Looking for a good retirement community in Sebastian Florida Vero beach Florida area
( absolutely no home owners association)
Best of luck! Sounds like all you want is a house in a decent neighborhood. Try google for real estate agents in the area.
Are there any mobile home rent to own near Holiday FL

Wait for the market "correction " then go and buy the bargain. And buy a home with no lot rent where others can not tell you what you can and cannot do.
Well, you may loose everything in a hurricane so don't think it's hunky dory dandy.
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.
Hi Russ how much is this house for sale
The price and monthly costs are in the video.....$67,500
$400 mo lot fee? That's a lot! Does that cover mowing ??
Actually that's about as cheap as it gets in Florida. Includes sewer and trash according to the listing.
@@RussellWatsonFMHL thank you. Does lot fee include mowing yard maintenance?
Not according to the listing. You can contact the agent. Her info is in the video description along with the Four Star Homes website.
What is the insurance on this home
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.
How do I find parks that are coops in central Florida
@@annkeezer5431
You can request a statewide CoOp list by joining our Inner Circle. It's Free! www.floridamfghome.com/Buyer-Resources There may be other ROCs, such as subdivisions or condo communities, but lists are not readily available. I feature many of these in my area videos. Also check Real-Estate listings in the area for manufactured homes. www.floridamfghome.com/Buyer-Resources If you are looking for a guide to researching and selecting communities, I suggest my book: Retirement in Florida - Manufactured Homes & The Land-Lease Option
amzn.to/3c3UMPJ Much of what we present applies to ROCs as well.
@@RussellWatsonFMHL I bought it already.
Aren't the lot rents high and subject to change?
This park has a very low lot rent. Yes, lot rents usually have an annual increase. It's something you should plan for and budget.
Better off buying land and putting your own mobile home on it! Save yourself 410.00 for lot rent! Land and home can be preferred together as one payment. There no telling if the lot rent is for 20 years or gone up every year
That's a very viable option for some. There are rural areas where you can still buy land you can put a manufactured home on. There are occasionally lots available in established subdivisions too.
Dose.it have amenities?
No, this is just a residential community. The lot rent would be much higher with amenities. But there are beaches & parks nearby.
Price?

The price at the time the video was made is in the video at 8:10.
Wow, can't afford it.
We have videos on homes that are much less. czcams.com/users/FloridaManufacturedHomeLiving
Is this available
Hilda, I don't sell homes. Contact info for the agent that was selling that home is in the video description.
How much is the rent
Costs are in the video.
Buy nothing and wait 6 months to a year. You will be able to by homes next to nothing as we head into a depression.
I hope not but certainly if that's what you're thinking that might be a good strategy.
Can you help me i have around 10,000 and i want small lot rent something i do not prefer
Sorry,
I do not sell homes or offer personal consultation; preferring to reserve the time I have available for producing educational materials.

I did just happen to see this listing though: www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/34408-State-Road-54-173A_Zephyrhills_FL_33543_M92975-64462?cid=eml_promo_Marketing_PRSL__1946:65679bf6b79683eead9b44a6:rm202401301300_Alerts_Buyer_Daily_PriceDecrease#app
It's too bad the flippers of this house couldn't take some money and clean up the outside. The price is not worth what the mobile home looks like
I agree, the neighborhood is otherwise quite nice. They needed to replace or remove that fence. BTW I see the price is reduced so if you thought the last price was ballpark you could take the discount and do it when you bought it.
Tell the truth you can afford the house you can't afford the insurance Florida sticks it in your brakes it off when it comes to mobile home insurance 3 to 5,000 a year get you some of that retirees
Mine's just a touch over $2,000/yr and went down a bit. That's with full wind coverage. Never met anyone paying $3-5,000 but maybe if you had a really expensive home right on the water. There seem to be hundreds of thousands of retiree's that still find manufactured housing communities a bargain. Definitely not for everyone though.
I'll wait for the next housing crash. 67k is too much for a trailer home.
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!
Question, You mentioned rent to own? I’m in Pa and looking to get down Feb2023 to look relocate to Sunny Fla. I am looking Melbourne/Sebastian area. Can you contact me. Thanks
