Senior Housing and Assisted Living

When people think about living on a budget in retirement, they usually think about having to sacrifice necessities. It does not have to be like that at all. It can be a lot of fun to be frugal.

Because of the recent poor economy, people are needing to reconsider what their finances will look like down the road, particularly people who are already retired or are looking to retire soon. Some people are even saying “I can’t afford to retire now” because of the severe hits that have hit our investment accounts.

You can also have fun and live a cheap lifestyle. What about moving to a mobile home park? These can be either seasonal or year-round residences.

You might be wondering how this is frugal. You can buy a nice used park model for $15,000 to $20,000 (that’s furnished as well). For a minimum of $25,000, you can purchase a brand new model. If you were to look at traditional houses for $25,000 you would find they resemble a house for a tiny dog.

How can living in a park model mobile home be considered a fun lifestyle? Here in Phoenix, we are just an hour away from Mesa, Arizona — which happens to be a virtual park model mobile home mecca.

Every community offers a great number of activities in which you can participate. For those who are 55 and older they have clubhouses and craft rooms that are kind of like summer camps for older people. The residents have so much fun; the only stress is choosing what activity they will do today.

So, if you’re looking at retiring on a limited budget, there is no need to worry. Do not give up on retirement until you explore all the options. At a price that anybody is able to afford, living in a park model mobile home can be more fun then you could have imagined. So when it’s time to retire, you can sit back and enjoy.
