    People on here passing judgment are a joke. I own my own home outright but i don't go looking down on others. Everyone has different circumstances and you have no clue what these people have been through. Do not judge. People only judge so they can feel better about doing nothing. In Canada new owners of trailer parks are restricted in how much they can raise pad rentals and must compensate residents if they sell. A friend of my husband's bought a mobile home for 60K, built onto it and received over 300K when the park sold. Contact your politicians and demand protection against predatory owners. Corporations are buying up all the land and jacking up rents.

      @@derrickraccoon7370-- I lived in Jamaica for a number of years, they have a wonderful system dating from 1976. Every working adult pays 2% of gross salary, into the National Housing Trust. The government matches this by 3%. This 5% is used to build Low Income Housing for poor people. If you are not eligible for a house, being you have one already, then you start receiving your refund annually, with interest, after 10 years. In Jamaica, no homelessness. The Trust started with less than 1 million employees. Census is now almost 4 million. Additionally, they offer Build on Your Own Land, Home Improvement Loans, Starter Homes for the very poor, who are given a box-like structure, to complete as they can afford. This is easily done, as many better off people put doors, sinks windows etc., when renovating. A down payment is made, then monthly mortgage in relation to their salary. Just think what over 200 million employed US citizens could accomplish, with a system like this.

    I've always thought there was something fundamentally wrong with the way trailer parks are set up. Why "buy" the trailer if the actual owner of the land sets the terms of your land rental and that can change at any time? it makes no sense at all to "buy" a trailer unless you also OWN the land it's sitting on. I looked into buying one when I was 20 years old and quickly realized living in a trailer park was a seriously bad idea. Buy a minivan or RV, then rent a space to park it. The ability to leave at any time gives you way more leverage with the land owner.

    My mom got very lucky in the same situation, because her property was bought out by the port of Seattle in 2007. They paid her replacement cost, and for moving costs and other expenses. She paid 27,000 for her 1982 double wide, and the port paid her over 80,000. We moved down to Portland. We did buy another manufactured home, but much newer, a 1998 double wide on its own lot/property. Mom put 1/2 the cost down, and consequently, the mortgage is just a little over 700.00. My mom passed in 2014, and I am eternally grateful to her for leaving me my lovely home. I live here with my son, who is 38, and autistic. I will leave the house to him, by then it will be paid off. As I said, I'm so grateful.

      @Miss F I don't empathize with perpetual victims. These women have had decades to develop a skill set. Instead, they chose to become generational Baby Mama's/Baby Grandmamas. They have the nerve to want a corporation to care about their kids, but not the father(s)? In addition to cheap lot rent, I'm quite sure these people have got welfare (or social security) for most, if not all, of their/their kids' lives. How much more do they think they're entitled to? 2nd Latino/as like this get on my nerves. The SW of the US doesn't belong to Mexico. English is this country's first language. Documents issued by a private company shouldn't have to be in Spanish to appease people that are lazy/unpatriotic to at least speak this lands language. 3rd. I don't like manipulative "parents." Just because you have kids it's not societies, job to take care of them. Having her overweight son speak on their behalf is wrong. Kids have no business in adult business. These women are used to using their kids as pawns to get what they want. I'm a 1980 girl, and as time marches on, people like me could care less about single mothers with kids. A lot of these women have r*ped the system long enough. That's why.

    I live in a cooperative resident-owned community (ROC) in New Hampshire. Since 2010, the lot rent has gone down twice and has stayed steady at $365 a month for over a decade. No one is making a profit on that lot rent and everyone in the park has access to the financials that document how the lot rents are spent (taxes on the land, the water and sewer, trash pick up, road maintenance, etc.). I own my home and I own 1/100th of the entire park. New Hampshire developed the ROC model and the state helped out with the financing and guidance the residents needed to take the park from privately owned to resident-owned. The majority of parks in NH are now ROCs. No story on manufactured housing parks is complete without noting how successful NH has been in keeping this form of affordable housing truly affordable and its ownership stable.

      that seems extreme - the people who buy these mobile homes are adults - they know they are renting the land - they should be given a reasonable - maybe even a generous - amount of time - to move or sell their mobile home - realistically, if it can't be moved - it probably can't be sold either - unless the new park owner wants to buy it for some reason - sometimes space rents go up too high for current renter of the space - sometimes new park owner wants to be rid of the older models for safety and/or aesthetic reasons to update the park - it's definitely upsetting for people to move - but, life is change - nothing is permanent - older people or people with disabilities or language issues certainly need assistance - but, what happened to people relying on their families instead of the gubmint - and taxpayers & developers certainly shouldn't be constantly expected to pay for the decisions of short sighted people - maybe the amount of time given to sell the old mobile home could be based on how many years the person has been renting there - that way they're somewhat compensated for their rent loyalty to the park - similar if the mobile is too old to sell - the new owner might be involved in helping to pay for it's removal - which he'll have to do anyway because the people will ditch out & dump that cost on him no doubt - but, if there was a loyalty system in place - then maybe there would be less tension on that issue - but, ultimately, why on earth should the new owner be required to buy all the old worthless mobiles ???

      Are you not able to have the trailer moved onto another piece of land or trailer park? Is there no others in the area or a piece of land to rent? In honesty I'm unaware of how things work in the US. In the UK land is at a premium and expensive, but there are still a number of fairly decently priced caravan parks that offer plots where you can live on. Although in some US States land is fairly cheap but I'm guessing in the better areas, its getting harder to find a trailer park as land gets snapped up by developers and going to another state could be hundreds of miles from where your friends or job is! Plus with a static home, you just can't pitch up and move, so need a lorry, which can costs thousands in transferring it onto another site. Anyway hope you find a solution to you and your son's housing issues.

      Also, land can be considered useless in places like Flint, Michigan where the governing bodies actually poisoned the water. Who wants to buy that land?
      This situation is the “canary in the coal mine,” meaning, no matter how SAFE you thought you were … they may be coming for you next. No job, property or ANYTHING or ANYONE is safe or can feel safe in a capitalist system.

    In a modern country, NOBODY OWNS THEIR HOME! If you have to pay property tax to the government and they can eventually evict you if you stop paying taxes, then that basically means your government rents your home out to you, except you don't even get a landlord to fix your stuff. The land your house is on isn't yours, which means the house built on it isn't yours either! You'd have to go to some 3rd world place that's literally not on the map and maybe there you could live tax free.

    I cannot believe I found this video. I'm from California, and I lived in a mobile home park for 15 years. I'm a single mom and I raised my sonthere. I owned my mobile home, I did all repairs and upkeep myself even though I am disabled. I had a beautiful yard that people came from all over town to see. It was a beautiful fairy garden. The guy who owned the mobile home park sold it to a guy in Los Angeles. At the time we paid $400 a month and I couldn't afford to pay anymore than that with utilities and phone. We had land lines back then. I couldn't afford a cellphone. One day I found an eviction notice on my front door. The reason for me and my son being evicted? Because my driveway wasn't swept. That's it. I had just successfully kept my mother from being evicted after she recieved a notice. Again it was for a made up reason. My mother had lived there for 34 years. I couldn't keep myself from being evicted. I think the reason was because of the new managers. I called the police when the woman and her kids tried repeatedly to steal my dog. They called the police on me saying that it was their dog but thankfully he was chipped and I had pictures from the first day I got him up to then. There were and still are a lot of immigrants living there, mostly illegal and making very little money. But that didn't stop the new owner from raising the space rent from $400 to $650. Most of the people that lived there couldn't afford that. And a lot of people were evicted for stupid reasons, slamming a door, tv too loud, work boots on front porches. It was ridiculous. We all recieved notices that the owner was going to fix up the trailer park and make it into a park like settling. That was 8 years ago and the last time I was in California I drove through the place and it is a bigger craphole than before. Now it's full of dirt heads and dope dealers. I'm sorry for what the people in Arizona went through. It is happening all over the country.

      Generally, their strategy is to keep jacking up the lot rent, making hand over fist for as long as possible, until they reach a cutoff where nobody can afford the lot rent. Then they sell it to developers for another profit and the developers then bulldoze the place & build luxury homes. It’s all about the land, and the nicer the surrounding area is the more at risk the park is.

      I don’t know why these communities don’t ban together open up a non profit society or corporation and purchase their own park so that each tenant has a equal owners share ownership. Using already due pad rents. Get a legal contract made with reasonable terms. Sometimes lower income families have tendency to be hoarders and that can attract rats to the park . They have to maintain rules like that and the committee would ban together . The able bodied residents would me responsible for grounds and such to keep cost down. I’ve seen some tiny home parks that operate like that on Church donated land . They own the tiny home and the park self manages. I’ve seen this done with a mill where the threat of sale the crew got together and bought out the company and any new hires pay into shares of the company in payments I think only one year.
      When a tenant feels more ownership than owners tend to have a different outlook on how they feel about where they live and conditions actually improve over time. Ideally you would go for the not for profit trustee over corporate because of the property tax advantages for non profit. They take time to establish so I have to do my research to see if you could transfer a Corp to non profit society? I know you can incorporate a non profit but not sure if you can take a corporation to non profit society? Need property lawyers on that one .

    I lived in a mobile home park with my paid off trailer for a few years. The thought always stayed in my mind that I was giving away money that I could be using to buy my own property. The owner of the park started getting stricker and sticker with us tenants. Like we were not allowed to have overnight guests. If a family member came from out of town to visit they couldn't stay overnight. They had to get a hotel room. My kids couldn't ride their bikes in the trailer park. They had to push them to the entrance and then ride from there. I couldn't work on my vehicle in the trailer park. The water pressure was horrible. At times the shower would only trickle water out. I understood the reasons behind his rules in place but eventually said why am I tolerating rules when I could be free of them 🤔. So I set out on a mission and took a ride outside of the city limits. I came across a lot that had no "for sale" sign up. I asked the neighbors who owned it. They didn't know because no one had lived on it since they had all been there. I went to the courthouse to see if I could find out who owned the lot. It belonged to the deceased father of a local judge. I went to talk to the judge. He and his siblings had forgotten about the one acre of land. As we talked he told us that we seemed like a good family and would like us to have it. Next thing I knew he was putting together the paperwork and sold me the acre for $2,500.00. It had no water meter. That cost me $500 to have installed. It had no electric pole. The neighbor gave me a spare one that he wasn't using. He was a hoarder 😂. So I got the electric pole up and the electric company connected to it. There was no septic tank. That cost me $1,600 to have one put it. I had some crushed rock road base brought in and put down for my driveway. That cost me $600. So for a total cost of $5,200 I had my own property that I could do as I pleased. I made this purchase at the age of 31 years old. I'm 61 now and haven't had to pay rent in 30 years. 😂. I have no idea what an acre of land like mine cost today and I so grateful I found my property at a young age. During the COVID-19 crisis I didn't have to worry about being evicted or the rent piling up.

And the irony in Arizona is that there's tons of endless amounts of desert property for super cheap that one can own and live on. Yet these boneheads don't want to bother, instead they want to blame everyone else for their problems. Meanwhile, many responsible folks are taking their time to read, study, and figure out how to survive on a budget. What an insult to these responsible individuals out there.

    I feel so sorry for uneducated investors. Mobile homes are the worst investment one can make. For the park owners, it is a license to steal. The rates always go up as the home value itself goes down. This is not a cheap way to live.

      My trailer park friends were telling me how cheap it was in the early 90's. I looked into it being a HS dropout that barely made it out of general math. LoL
      The trailer living at that time was more then double my rent in an apartment. My apartment was only rent & electricity. The trailer park I would of had the trailer fee, the lot fee, water, garbage, gas, electricity & an extra fee to keep up the pool & playgrounds.
      Even I could figure out it was an awful investment 😆

      I just bought my first house a tiny bungalow at 61 years old in 2021. My mortgage is less then $400. It's all ready gone way up in value though I don't intend on moving. It's just nice to know so my children can sell it for more when I've passed on.

    In the UK many people do not own the land their houses sit on, but your leasehold is fixed for a number of years and for a fixed price. You will find it almost impossible to get a mortgage on a house that has less than 75 years left on the lease. Recent legislation allows you to buy the freehold (the land your house sits on) or extend it to 999 years. There is a formula for working out how much it should cost.

    This just happened to us at the turn of the year. Lived in our trailer for near a decade and had remodeled the interior etc and made it a decent place to live. At the beginning of January we got a packet with info saying the owners had sold the property to a company who was immediately raising the rent by $125 and to expect a handful of new additional bills i.e. water, plumbing, and trash which was all included before. And so the struggle begins... now I'm selling and looking elsewhere as the thought of them just being able to up and evict us for no reason or sell at any time in the future is ridiculous on top of the idea of paying like $500+/mo for literally a square of dirt..

      We live in a mobile home community and we own our home. New people bought our park our lot rent is now $540 a month and these people are hard to deal with. I just want peace we are currently in a battle because they want us to cut our hitch off. My mobile home is a 1999 so not too terribly old I contacted the manufacturer about the hitch and they sent me a notarized letter in my favor not to remove the hitch. However the park doesn't care. I have until March to cut it or they won't let me sign a new lease I will be put on a month to month lease which is an extra $150 a month. Our central a/c has never worked we don't have a outside unit but we have a couple window units yea that's a problem to they want those removed as well. What I'm noticing is everyone that was here before this company bought the property has moved there's only me and one other family that's still here. As soon as people leave they tear down their homes and put brand new mobile homes in. The sad thing is non of the original homes were old and in disrepair. I'm so over it but rent right now is 1800 a month for a 2 bedroom where we live I can't afford that.

My mom is in a similar situation but she is working out a deal with the park owner to get hers sold to them. They are fixing up the mobile home park and will eventually raise the rent. It is not my moms primary home so she just wants to sell it, get something out of it and move on.
