Hello Everyone, I have some questions for you all!

800 does sound high, but if it includes what you would be paying for property taxes, and maybe some things like cable, I don't know, use of pool--it sounds pretty good to me, for Portland?

I believe taxes are extra. And probably that could be raised at any time; I'm not sure if homeowners could vote on any raises, as they often can in condo situations. I know of one nice park up in the hills east of here that sells mobile homes/lots.

Maybe better to own the lot and look for a coop type pool situation.

Maybe pools aren't a thing there, as it is cooler a lot?

My son lives in Portland but he's in the city. Housing is so crazy expensive he'll never be able to own.

Hi Tybee,

I am aware of some people who are exploring some sort of "co-op" situation where there is collective ownership of land and on that land, people will have various forms of housing (e.g. trailers, ADU-type housing, mobile homes, etc....but this would also comprise a community of sorts...could be promising though I'd need to explore it further. There's at least one FB group in Portland that's getting together interested people.

Very warmly, Mark N.
