Manufactured homes can be insured. I believe we used Foremost for my father in laws. They can retain value if they are kept up. The one we bought for my wifes dad is right next door to our house and is in great condition. I think that the question is naturally "what is the location like?" Some people have been buying single wides and removing them from the lot and putting in bigger double wides. I think that this is going to be the wave of the future in this section of the Villages. Some of the older singlewides are nearing the end of their life exptecancy, so more and more of this will be happening. A clear example of this can be seen on the corner of Paridise and Aloha. If I remember correctly this was done just this year. Another example can be found on Vermont. In both cases they replaced the older single wide with a brand new double wide and the result was fantastic.
