Summer is traditionally a big home buying season. And as August ends, mortgage rates have slightly dipped, but inventory of new homes remains low, while prices remain high. More and more home shoppers – from first-time homebuyers to retirees looking for their forever home – have found that buying a mobile home or newly manufactured home is an ideal alternative to renting or buying a traditional site-built home.

Homebuyers can save a significant amount – as much as 30% in certain markets – by purchasing a manufactured home over a site-built home. In addition to the cost savings, other attractive benefits of mobile homes and manufactured housing are the low-maintenance lifestyle and low-cost upkeep that they provide.

HomeQuest is one of the largest manufactured home retailers and mobile home agents in the Western U.S., which means their vast network of agents can help you find the perfect home for your needs, in your desired community. Their experienced team of agents is also adept at helping buyers have a seamless transaction with the best outcome for their personal situation.

HomeQuest always has a wide inventory of new homes and resale homes for buyers to choose from, all at a fraction of the cost of traditional site-built housing. In the 55+ communities in particular, residents also prefer to spend their time socializing, pursuing hobbies, or traveling, versus spending valuable time on home and yard maintenance, which is usually required as part of homeownership of a traditional home.

Residents of mobile home parks also often form close-knit relationships with their neighbors, building a strong sense of community who look out for one another, and engage in community events and social activities together.
