Default Re: the bond and manufactured homes

lt:

The manufactured homes generally were installed in the mid 80's, some earlier and some later. They are mainly double wides, 1000 - 1400 SF, 2BR 2 Bath or more, many have an added attached Lanai (aka, Florida room) of about 10 x 10 on one side and an added attached storage/laundry/cart garage of about 12 x 24 on the other side, carport (usually no garages), avg 5K SF lots with no fences. The historic side has mature trees and landscape and is very nice. Prices range from about $100K to about $150K, often that includes completely furnished. In most cases the manufactured homes are in very good condition or can be updated for $10K to $25k.

They are a very good buy for the money in a very nice location.

I believe the bonds are only in Sumter County.
