Half of all floating homes are located in rented slips (where the floating home owner leases the slip from a moorage landlord).  The other half are in owned slips (where the floating home owner is part of an HOA which owns the slip and a share in the moorage).
Regardless of whether the floating home slip is rented or owned, once you purchase your floating home, you will be responsible for additional monthly payments of about $190 –$1,000+ to the landlord or to the HOA.  This payment is separate and in addition to your monthly floating home loan payment, but does cover water, sewage, trash, and parking.
Monthly slip rent typically runs from $600 to $800, but sometimes is as much as $1,100+, depending on the moorage or the home’s location within the moorage
Monthly HOA fees are typically around $350, but the lowest one currently is $195, and there are some that are over $500.
