  • What was once a more affordable way of living is now in jeopardy.
    Some mobile homeowners in Central Florida told News 6 that the amount they pay to rent their lots is increasing so much that it’s pricing them out of their homes and preventing them from selling them, too.

    $1,100 - $1,500 for lot rent is absolutely unjustifiable.

      Same in AZ. My coworker who is now 75yrs owns her mobile home and now is paying $1100 for the lot. That was a good idea 10yrs ago but now who knew lot rent would go up so ridiculously high. I was planning on moving into an affordable senior apartment but the wait list is over 100. One person has been #11 on the list for 3yrs since worse case needing a home gets moved up and bumps others. 🤷

But I can see how people end up in this situation. There needs to be a law. The worst part is that there is some rich out of town investors buying these parks and come in and double or triple the lot rent knowing the people can't afford it but they just want them off the land. Its criminal.

And I guess that attitude passed down to my dad (RIP), because I remember going to his house one day and I had bought something I really liked, so I wanted to show it to him. So I said "Look at this!
      Isn't it cute? It was on sale...I saved 50%!" My dad replied "Well, if you're spending, you're not saving." Obviously I had no retort, and that has always stuck with me.

    Investors see this as a cash cow because you can not just move out if you don't like the rent increase. We had a Florida Mobile Home Investment company try to buy our park in MA. We saw what they are doing. In MA, the residents have the first right of refusal to buy the park and have it resident owned. In our case the lot rent when up $200 a month when we bought the park with the help of a Non-Profit that does this for a living. Since we own the park, the value of our homes have sky rocketed because now the cost are controlled.

    I looked at buying a mobile home about three years ago, and I could see this trending in this direction. It caused me to do some calculations and decide it's a horrible idea to go that route. There not a good way to live with lot rents the way they are. They are a great investment for the owners as they can jack up the rates and steal the homes by making them unmovable, which is how it truly is because the cost to move one is also very expensive. Apartments are terrible too, but at least your not in over you head and can move more easily. We should develop laws that make what owners of both of these more restricted in how they go about raising the price. The rich are getting richer, and the middle class is becoming the new poor, while the poor is becoming homeless! This is the fault of greed, and the lack of our Government taking charge to help everyone have a better life.

    My mobile home is on rural acreage (paid cash, land included, with a pole barn on the property). Planned ahead and bought it years ago (well before prices went crazy) to be my retirement home, then sold my 2 story site built house in a city, after I retired and moved. My property tax went up $33.00 last year, so I now pay $709. for the year. I live in Osceola county, but it's Osceola county, MI. Before everyone goes on about the weather (I don't shovel snow, I pay a plow guy), if you're going to be, or are on a fixed income, you won't be able to afford to pay what the cost is for that weather. Why anyone would think that living in a state, where hundreds of thousands of people move to retire, because of the weather, would be an affordable option for the future, is shortsighted, to say the least. BTW, no one in these comment's has any idea what that park is paying in taxes, insurance, payroll, contractor's, and upkeep. There are thousands of retired site built homeowner's right now, who own their property outright in FL, and can no longer afford their taxes and insurance. Personally, I don't want to ever be in that position, and by living where I live, I won't be.
