Some of these reasons are justifiable. For example, if you are in a transient profession that requires you to move often, then buying a home may not be the best decision for you. Also, if you are in job that requires a lot of travel that will keep you away weeks or even months at a time, then you may not want the responsibility of caring for a home.

Amidst these reports is the constant use of many terms the average American (homeowner or not) may not be too familiar with or even have a complete understanding of their definitions. One of these terms is "conforming loan." Now, we all know what a loan is; generally a borrowed sum of money that is to be repaid with interest to a lender. A conforming loan however, is a specific type of loan. Loans are classified as meeting and not-meeting GSE guidelines. GSEs, Government Sponsored Entities, are financial services corporations that have been formed by congress, the most popular of which are Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These GSEs set guidelines for the types of loan programs that are available to homeowners. Conforming loans meet these guidelines and, as a result, are part of the uniform mortgage documents and national standards that have been set for loans.

The advantages to these excursions is that the homes are closer together and sellers are apt to be much more motivated for a couple of reasons: First, it's hard to get very high drive-by visibility for a home that's for sale in a park; particularly when park rules prohibit placing for sale signs on the homes. Second, in parks that charge high lot rents, the combination of high rents, high prices, and limited financing alternatives often drive the total monthly costs of a modern large home plus rent above that of new stick-built houses; or of new homes on individual lots in mobile home subdivisions.

Be sure you check thoroughly about the prices of similar houses in the neighborhood. There are expensive residential areas and not so expensive residential areas. Sometimes you will find that a same sized house in one neighborhood costs less than that in another neighborhood.
