Mobile homes can be practical, well designed and well manufactured guest homes, cabins or even secondary residences on a property. One of the major benefits to a mobile home is that there is literally no building time and can easily be installed in a day with proper hook ups provided.

In some areas of the country mobile homes can easily be installed over a basement to increase the living space with a relatively low cash outlay. It is much easier to dig the basment prior to positioning the house than lifting the mobile home and then trying to get the basement ready.

By surrounding your mobile home with good quality skirting you can prevent animals, debris and even plants from taking root and growing under your mobile home. Animals under the house can really cause problems both with odors and with noise and damage to wooden floors if they chew or scratch.
