Main thing to do is go find a lot or piece of land to buy to put it on. Otherwise you are always at the mercy of the trailer park and what ever rent they want to charge, structure the leases the way the want to, and evict when they want to. They get a few hundred a month plus utilities around here.
One of the problems with trailer parks around here, is that city and county codes are watching over the parks and are forcing the dipladated ones to close down. What this has caused is that they won't allow mobile homes over a certain age and must be in good repair. Have a water leak and they go to heck in hurry. Have too loud of a dog they evict you. Require them to be owner occupied, etc. or they evict you.
Once a mobile home gets so old or looks so bad, then they evict. A lot of them will not survive a move and are expensive to move them.
Unfortunately there are a lot of nicer older ones that don't have a place to go to put them or can't afford to move them. They can't sell them and they end up being abandoned and/or junked out. Some of those trailer park slumlords are just out to squeeze every buck they can out of someone and still not fix the park up.
Moral of the story is to move while the moving is good. Don't wait till she gets very old and barely making it on social security and then have to move when it may not be possible.
On your own lot you can set it on a solid foundation, fix it up a little and still keep some value in it, have some resale value later on, and even be available to rent out. You can buy a lot and the payments can be cheaper than lot rent.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Lead Substitutes - by Mike Schordine. Lead was oriinally added to gasoline as an upper cylinder lubricant. It lubes the valves and seats. If you rebuild the motor, you could use hardened seats and valves, and unleaded fuel. But if your old tractor runs good, a simple lead substitute added to the gas is a perfectly reasonable solution. And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
