Being from a park, moving to land
Being from a park, moving to land
I am interested in purchasing a mod. home but I was thinking, buying a relatively new one from someone selling in a modular home park would be cheaper and then transferring property to land and installing foundation and/basement for onsite built appeal. Can someone buy a home from a modular home park and move it, not having to worry about the park cost they charge. Or do they restrict you from buying and moving it?
Re: Being from a park, moving to land
Most parks won't mind if you purchase a home and then move it.You'll have to make sure that the current owner is current with their lot rent payments.If not you'll have to get them current with the purchase/move.
Something else to look at is the "repo market." With major lenders feeling the pinch of their previous poor credit decisions, you may be able to find a great deal on a repo home. Keep in mind that repo homes aren't always in the greatest of shape. But you can occasionally find yourself a heck of a deal. Just make sure you have your financing all set up, because good repos don't last long, and most lenders won't provide financing on a repo'd home.
Good luck!

We found a repo and financed it with no problem. Of course we did have our own land to put it on. Repo's can be found and they do go fast.
