Enjoy Affordability
Manufactured homes are more afforable than site-built homes. They provide financial relief, allowing you to stretch your retirement savings further for travel, hobbies, or simply enjoying life.
The high cost of traditional housing and ongoing expenses like maintenance, utilities, and taxes can strain fixed incomes. By contrast, manufactured homes typically have a significantly lower purchase price.
- Experience lower monthly mortgage payments, or the potential to purchase outright using equity from a previous home sale.
- Modern manufactured homes (like Hames Homes) are energy-efficient, leading to lower utility bills.
- Living in a community on leased land means lower property taxes. Site lease includes services like garbage, storm water fees, and property taxes on the land.
Complete our quick, no-obligation financing application, you’ll get a clear picture of your purchasing power, estimated monthly payments, and the loan programs you qualify for.
Embrace a Lower-Maintenance Lifestyle
Enjoy a low-maintenance lifestyle that frees up time and energy for pursuing passions, spending time with family, or simply relaxing.
Ditch the physical burden and time commitment of maintaining a large home and yard. Manufactured homes are often smaller and designed for easier maintenance.
- There is less space to maintain compared to larger site-built homes.
- There are no basements or attics to worry about maintaining.
Age Comfortably
Live comfortably and independently in single-level homes designed for ease of access, allowing you to age in place.
Worried about navigating stairs or needing home modifications for changing mobility needs? Choose a home that adapts as you age. Manufactured homes are single-story, making them easier to navigate for those with limited mobility, using wheelchairs, or walkers.
- Special order manufactured homes can be customized or designed with accessibility features such as wider doorways, walk-in showers with grab bars, and accessible countertop heights.
- Entry ramps can be added to mobile and manufactured homes.
Find Community and Connection
Enjoy a friendly, active, and social lifestyle in a supportive all-ages community.
After retirement or when living alone, it’s natural to crave connection. Many older adults are looking for meaningful social interaction and the comfort of a friendly, supportive neighborhood.
Hames Homes communities are specifically designed to foster a sense of belonging and provide opportunities for social interaction among residents.
- Enjoy community events and outings, which are regularly scheduled by Hames.
- While fostering community, manufactured homes still offer more privacy than apartments, as you don’t share walls with neighbors.
Welcome Visitors
Enjoy visits from family and friends, including grandkids, utilizing community amenities and spaces.
There's plenty of space to gather, whether you're hosting a get-together with friends or welcoming grandkids for the weekend.
Playgrounds On-Site

Greenspaces
Access shared outdoor spaces, including walking paths, spacious parks, and a dog park.
