While you are currently in the process of searching for mobiles homes for sale, you have the option between a mobile home on it’s own private land OR a used manufactured home in a park.

This decision regarding your future housing arrangements should not be taken lightly!

A recent newspaper article by http://www.theledger.com highlights the SERIOUS problems a mobile home owner could face if the manufactured housing community they purchase a home within is facing issues with government agencies, unbeknownst to the new community member.

The article, http://www.theledger.com/article/20110812/NEWS/110819823/1338/sitemaps04, sheds light on two mobile home communities in Polk County Florida that are being closed by the health department after failing numerous health inspections, dating back to August of 2009.

The two trailer communities facing inspection issues are, Sunset Cove in Winter Haven, FL with over 100 homes, and Melody Acres in Lakeland, FL consisting of approximately 400 mobile homes.
