Download or read book Singlewide written by Sonya Salamon and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Singlewide, Sonya Salamon and Katherine MacTavish explore the role of the trailer park as a source of affordable housing. America’s trailer parks, most in rural places, shelter an estimated 12 million people, and the authors show how these parks serve as a private solution to a pressing public need. Singlewide considers the circumstances of families with school-age children in trailer parks serving whites in Illinois, Hispanics in New Mexico, and African Americans in North Carolina. By looking carefully at the daily lives of families who live side by side in rows of manufactured homes, Salamon and MacTavish draw conclusions about the importance of housing, community, and location in the families’ dreams of opportunities and success as signified by eventually owning land and a conventional home. Working-poor rural families who engage with what Salamon and MacTavish call the "mobile home industrial complex" may become caught in an expensive trap starting with their purchase of a mobile home. A family that must site its trailer in a land-lease trailer park struggles to realize any of the anticipated benefits of homeownership. Seeking to break down stereotypes, Salamon and MacTavish reveal the important place that trailer parks hold within the United States national experience. In so doing, they attempt to integrate and normalize a way of life that many see as outside the mainstream, suggesting that families who live in trailer parks, rather than being "trailer trash," culturally resemble the parks’ neighbors who live in conventional homes.

Book Mobile Home Tycoon

Download or read book Mobile Home Tycoon written by RJ Salerno and published by Genesis Publishing Group. This book was released on 2018-04-21 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MAKE A FORTUNE INVESTING IN MOBILE HOMES This is an A to Z; beginners guide into the world of mobile home real estate investing and untapped opportunities unknown to the seasoned real estate investor. There are many valuable tips and examples to put you on your way to begin amassing your own real estate empire. I will walk you through on how to find your very 1st mobile home deal and on how to begin cash flowing immediately on your new investment. Some years ago, I was introduced to the world of real estate investing. Like most that are in the investment world, there are many aspects of real estate investing I had to learn. Most investors that I knew stayed away from mobile homes. Mostly what I was told was of the pitfalls and investment failures when investing in mobile homes. Since then what I have found are a very small margin of real estate investors in this world of mobile home investing and they are making a fortune. What this means to you is a huge opportunity to capitalize on a wide-open market. Most of what I have learned has been by trial and error since there are very few books or courses on the matter. Mobile home parks might not be viewed as such an attractive investment to add to your portfolio at first glance, but when you look into the consistency of tenancies and the income you can generate, they can potentially be an attractive real estate investment.

Book excerpt: Manufactured Insecurity is the first book of its kind to provide an in-depth investigation of the social, legal, geospatial, and market forces that intersect to create housing insecurity for an entire class of low-income residents. Drawing on rich ethnographic data collected before, during, and after mobile home park closures and community-wide evictions in Florida and Texas—the two states with the largest mobile home populations—Manufactured Insecurity forces social scientists and policymakers to respond to a fundamental question: how do the poor access and retain secure housing in the face of widespread poverty, deepening inequality, and scarce legal protection? With important contributions to urban sociology, housing studies, planning, and public policy, the book provides a broader understanding of inequality and social welfare in the United States today.

Book excerpt: Life changes everything. When comfort turns to restlessness it can make you itch. Many of us simply scratch but in this personal memoir Kathy O'Dwyer recognized the itch for what it was, the need for a more fulfilling life. Shocking family and friends she abandons her comfortable Chicago lifestyle trading in her corporate high heels for a pair of steel toe shoes and work gloves to take on management of a small ranch and retreat center in the wilderness of Aravaipa Canyon in southern Arizona. Encounters with rattlesnakes, javelinas, scorpions and coatimundis are nothing compared to the challenge of isolation and loneliness. Following an unconventional path takes courage yet Kathy soon finds it is necessary to bring about intense transformation. She stumbles along the way, strays from the path yet ultimately sheds the skin of her old life and embraces a new beginning. Reconnecting with the Earth allows her to discover her soul's purpose and ultimate happiness. This work from the heart is shared through short stories and poetry during Kathy's two years living next to the singing waters of Aravaipa Canyon.
