      Rights of Heirs Inheriting Mobile/Manufactured Homes Q. Can the park prevent me from living in the Mobile/Manufactured Home I inherited?     A. Yes, unless you qualify for residency and sign a rental agreement.   Upon death of a relative, heirs cannot simply assume they can move into the relative‟s home or continue to live there if they are not already a party to the rental agreement.   Despite the fact that an heir takes title to the mobilehome, the park management has the right to require an heir, or person who had been living with the resident, to newly apply for residency in the park.   If the management rejects the heir‟s residency because the heir cannot comply with the rules or doesn't have the income to pay the rent and charges, the heir can be required to move out.   The...

Escondido Homes for Sale What Happened in the Escondido Real Estate Market in May 2014?   Escondido is an inland community, about 17 miles from the coast and just east of San Marcos. Like its neighbors, San Marcos, Vista and Oceanside, Escondido has seen fairly significant shifts in the real estate market with a large number of short sales and foreclosures, although that has shifted in a positive direction.   As a buyer or seller in the housing market in Escondido, understanding recent trends and current market conditions is essential so you can make informed decisions about buying and selling Escondido homes; media reports focus on general market conditions and therefore will not provide an accurate picture of the local Escondido real estate market.   READ MORE:  A Tour of Escondido – ...
