Hi. As far as rentals go, note that even those who live permanently are often renters. The land is often owned by the mobile home park, an each unit is rented. That being said, the 'snowbirds' who spend 6 months in, 6 months out would generally want to be in the home during the same 6 months as you would want to be there. Although perhaps preferred, it might be difficult to rent from an individual owner for those 6 months. It might be more probably that you would be renting from the mobile home park. The reality is this: most of the parks have senior age requirements, whereas the other parks without age requirements you probably wouldn't want to live in because they are low rent districts. I highly recommend targeting an age restricted park such 55+, 65+, etc. Well, in those parks there is some turnover as the older people pass on. If the family owns the mobile home, then that might be even better news. It is amazing how inexpensive some of these are. Assume a price range of $10K to $30K in general. So it is an option to buy at relatively affordable prices. Regardless, making contact with a few of those parks can at minimum get one on a type of interest list/waiting list for renting. Some parks rent the homes it owns, and also work with the owner of individual ones to fill them with renters. In the end, because there are so many of these parks, you should not have that much difficulty getting into one. Just curious, do you have any idea where in Florida you might be interested?
