Within the manufactured housing industry, mobile homes are another very affordable option for those looking for a second home at a good price.Unlike conventional ones, mobile prefabricated houses do not need work, since they are not fixed to the ground with foundations, hence they can be moved more easily from one plot of land to another.However, it is advisable to take into account some issues before buying a home of this type, since they also have some disadvantages, according to idealista.com.The reduced size is one of the main characteristics of these mobile homes, which can be a drawback for those who prefer large and open spaces.In addition, it is not possible to play with the heights to add floors, since the transfer would be very complicated.The solution here would be to add other modules once the house is installed in order to increase the size of the house depending on the needs of each one.Likewise, as it is considered movable property, a mortgage cannot be requested to finance its acquisition, only a personal loan, hence the conditions are less beneficial.Thirdly, the fact that they can be moved from one place to another comes with a major drawback: a special truck will be needed and they cannot be towed with a conventional vehicle.Although it is true that buying a mobile home requires less bureaucratic procedures than a conventional one and they do not need to be registered in the Property Registry, it is essential that they have an administrative authorization, in which documentation on the location will be needed.In this sense, the home must be identified with a chassis number and plate.Another reality about this type of house is that it must be self-sufficient, so it will not be possible to connect the water and electricity supplies as is the case with fixed prefabricated houses.Despite these disadvantages, mobile homes have the drawback that they are cheaper and easier to install and transport.In addition, unlike the fixed prefabricated ones, mobile homes can be placed on rustic land, cheaper than urban buildable land, where the fixed dwellings must be located.In any case, it is always advisable to previously consult the regulations in force in the autonomous community and municipality where you want to locate these homes.Any reproduction without the written permission of the company is prohibited for the purposes of article 32.1, second paragraph, of the Law on Intellectual Property.Likewise, for the purposes established in article 33.1 of the Intellectual Property Law, the company records the corresponding reservation of rights, by itself and through its editors or authors.
