Look around there are many parks that are senior parks 55+ and you OWN the space your home sits on you pay a small HOA fee for the maintenance of the park and most HOA fees include cable, water, gas, trash you pay electric only!! My friend just bought a one bedroom one bath on a golf course beautiful water view, 5 pools in the park, tennis courts, she owns the land her HOA fees are $350.00 a month she paid cash for the home $120,000!! I was amazed when I visited her, granite countertops, hard wood floors, completely dry walled throughout, beautiful deck with a complete built in BBQ kitchen on the deck with granite counters, stainless steel sink, dishwasher all OUTSIDE on deck!! The place is beautiful so shop around AND be willing to relocate if needed you CAN find great deals for your retirement!!!

First of all folks, manufactured homes are not mobile homes. They don’t have wheels and are much different.
We bought a 3 bedroom 2 bath manufactured home in a 55 plus community with a separate 2-car garage which was a bit older for $75k. We put on a new roof, new flooring, upgraded the HVAC and water heater, painted and 3 years later it is valued at $160k and rising. Unfortunately it sits on land we rent and the owner raises the rent to the maximum every year. It is a nice home but for fixed income folks - they are frightened.
I bought a nice double wide in a senior park, 3rd on in 10 yrs :-( last stop for me, park is huge love it
