I have seen ads for people with down payments looking for owner financing on homes, you my want to try that route. The first suggestion is that you contact State Code Associations to find out if your home meets Wind Zone and other requirements to be set up in that particular area. If you go to the expense to move the home and set it up, the home still has to be inspected by a county inspector before the electric company will turn on the electricity. The inspector will fail the home because it does not meet building restrictions in that local area and power will never be turned on to the home. Can you refer me to a mover in my area.
Dealers are an excellent resource of who does good work in their area.
I live in Chicago,Il. Typically mobile homes are restricted from being within city limits but, grandfather clauses do exist that would allow citizens to replace a mobile home within city limits that fell under the grandfather clause. You need to check the local statutes and codes in the area in which you live for more details. The odds are too good for any one to turn down. No, this is not legal.
