It is said that the new middle class will and have been moving to the mobile home, preferring the trailer court life style.
Single wides, double wides, the luxury of out right ownership of the dwelling itself vs the expensive 30 year mortgage.
And... the much preferred and more affordable lot rent vs the ever rising property tax burden.
This is the new middle class.
Small yards, minor upkeep, simplicity, down sizing, plus greatly reduced property taxation.
A trade off eliminating higher and higher property tax rates for a more stable lot rent expense.
Naturally, the inability to deduct those lot rent expenses on the old tax form as compared to those property tax deductions for some home owners could be a deal breaker. However, for that everyone knows it is just a short matter of time until that property tax deduction will be completely taken way altogether.
If republicans could care less about people having affordable healthcare, we all know they will care even less if the property tax deduction is taken away allowing uncle Sam to keep more of your money in his pockets.
It's coming.
You now it and they know it.
But enough of that....
The news here is with the migration from that large family home to the simplicity of the mobile home.
The pre-fab home, the manufactured home, along with the trailer court living.
Yes, this is and will be the middle class of tomorrow.
Affordably, simplicity, communities isolated from crime and riff raft.
Pools, club houses, neighbor hand in hand with neighbor, strict rules, regulations, clean streets, well kept yards, pet limits, and much reduced crime.
And everyone, especially in todays world, wants to see their crime exposure reduced if not eliminated.
Enter the trailer court lifestyle.
The new middle class of tomorrow, happening today.
Doubt this trend?
Just check out your local trailer courts, especially the very well kept courts.
You will find not only the seniors living there, but the young middle class working couple as well.
The families.
Where the child can play on the swings, and the parent need not fear for the safety of the child.
And you will find that a nice available mobile home is very hard to come by at any price.
When vacancy does come up, expect a buyer with cash in hand ready to pounce on the opportunity.
Home ownership at a fraction of the cost of your typical 30 year mortgaged home.
Out right cash purchasing, or at worst a short affordable ten year loan.
Think of a well kept mobile home court as your gated community of tomorrow.
Low crime, clean streets, kept yards, biking, walking, kind of your Stepford wives scenario minus the robotic housewife.
