Exciting times ahead with your double-wide home! For electricity, you might spend around $100-$150 a month if you're careful. Propane could be $200-$300 monthly in winter, depending on how much you use it. Prices change, though.

Wow okay that's like double what we're paying now in a conventional home but we are on a budget plan which is like 180 a month all year thank you very much for the information also looking to see what typical problems are in these new manufactured homes the brand we're looking at is Colony homes out of Pennsylvania

Glad the info helped, even if the numbers were a bit surprising! Budget plans do make a big difference. As for typical issues in new manufactured homes, it varies but watch for things like insulation, window seals, and proper installation to avoid any surprises down the line. Colony homes have a solid rep, but it's always good to ask around or check reviews for any model-specific quirks. Hope your move goes smoothly and you love your new place!
