Clueless

Well, I have NO idea of what I'm asking, so please bear with me. My wife and I have decided to separate, for good? for a year?? who knows.
Anyhow, she and I will keep our finances together (yes, we are both trustworthy and the climate at home is rather friendly) -- she will stay in the home we own and I think I would like to buy a trailer (pre-owned) in a nice community in my area.
I would rent the lot, but buy the trailer. This doesn't have to be the Taj Mahal, however, I'm not looking for the rusty, beatup, hunk either.
How long can you take a mobile home mortgage out for? Do you pay property taxes, etc? I guess, other than depreciating, instead of appreciating, what diferences exist in mobile home purchase and a 'built' home?
Thanks for help and, again, pardon my ignorance.
