Considering buying; what are some questions to ask?
I know of an early to mid-90's Oakwood mobile home for sale at a good price. Its owner, who is moving out of state, works in construction and maintenance and has done much to keep it up, including remodeling many of its rooms, flooring, etc. Of what general quality were the Oakwoods of that era? Wha...

Does anyone live in a Bluegrass MH community?
I'm considering moving to the Kentucky area. The town I have in mind is so small that it probably won't have many mobile home parks to choose from. But if there's anyone on the forum who might live in one near Lexington, could I get some comments about a good park to consider? I do see land around t...

Re: What're your experiences in a mobile home park?
Thanks again, David. There are some pretty awful sounding horror stories about mobile home communities elsewhere on this forum. They're describing things similar to what I'm having to live with in my current apartment situation.

What're your experiences in a mobile home park?
I'm not sure if I should start this thread here or elsewhere, but here goes. If it's in the wrong place, move it to a more appropriate place. For those who live in a mobile home park-community, what is life like there? What are some considerations and issues that may come up, both positive and negat...

Re: Can you keep heavy items in a mobile home?
Thanks bunches, David and Jerry!
The cosmetic damages you mentioned--what might they tend to be? How easily fixable might these cosmetic problems tend to be? I take it they are unsightly although would not cause any dangerous problems.

Can you keep heavy items in a mobile home?
I have a spinet piano and also a pretty heavy computer desk. Can they safely be put into a mobile home without causing flooring problems? Would it be necessary to install something additional under them? Also, although the word "mobile" home implies that they can be moved. But just how mob...

Decided to buy my first home
Tired of apartment living, I've decided to buy my first mobile home. I'm trying to learn all I can before I even start looking, and have some questions. 1. What routine maintenance do mobile homes need? About how often do they need it? And is it terribly expensive? 2. According to some research I've...
