I need to sell my house since I'm alone now and financially I need to get out. Condos and townhomes wouldn't be any cheaper with taxes and HOA fees. With the 3 dogs, apartments won't rent to me. I found the perfect place, it's an over 55 community of modular homes (not trailers). They are really cute, small homes with yards. You don't pay taxes as you don't own the land. Right there it saves me 600.00 a month. I could sell my house and buy an older home outright there saving another 600.00 a month. The assessments are around 5-600 a month. That covers your water,basic cable, snow removal, lawn care and garbage pickup. I was so excited when I went to the sales office until they told me they have a 2 dog limit. So not an option for me because I have 3 dogs. No exceptions. I understand setting limits but I own the house and my dogs are not destructive to my house or property. But rules are rules. People say just don't tell them you have 3 and never let all 3 out at the same time. I'm an honest person and couldnt do that and I want to be able to walk all 3 at the same time and let them in my yard. Finding housing is a challenge with pets but I could never live with out them. I hope it works our for you!
