What is a Residential Park?

Mobile homes on the Costa del Sol, Spain

The first thing to consider is which type of park you want to live on. There are two types, a dedicated retirement park which only has mobile homes and is exclusive to the residents only such as Park La Posada or a joint camping mobile home park dedicated more for holidays.

The two concepts are very different and explained below.

New or resale mobile homes?

Over the years as more parks have opened up the resale mobile home market has also grown. It is no longer just a choice of a few holiday caravans sited on camp sites down on the coast. It is now possible to buy a very modern mobile home on a dedicated retirement park. Companies such as Costa Difference Ltd are on hand to show a good selection on established parks.

One big advantage of buying a resale mobile home is that everything is in place already from decking to air conditioning. The plots are also fully established.

New UK manufactured mobile homes are supplied by UK main dealers such as Carefree Lifestyle Ltd and transported to Spain so that they can be fully installed on the chosen park. Once installed the decking can then be designed and built.

This will give you some idea as to what it costs to have a new UK manufactured mobile home built to order, transported and sited, on a residential style park in Spain. You can of course see on the internet websites offering to beat any price and even sell a new mobile home at cost price as "supermarket loss leaders". All very well until it comes to paying your deposit in order to have your new mobile home built.

The process from paying your deposit to moving into your new mobile home can take three months. Peace of mind should start at the very beginning when looking to retire to Spain and it is nice to know that the company you are dealing with are not cutting prices at all costs, not interested in just selling mobile homes to stop others selling and more to the point are in business to make a profit, provide a service and intend to continue doing so for many years to come.

Important advice about the differences between dedicated residential style mobile home parks and a camp sites that also allows mobile homes.

There are two main reasons why a dedicated residential style mobile home park is different to a joint camping/mobile home park.

1) The licence for the joint park is more than likely for normal camping and the number of static mobile homes allowed could be restricted. The plot sizes also tend to be smaller and of course the rents higher.

2) When the Spanish go camping they like to party so at Easter and throughout the summer it will be very busy, very noisy and you will have children and dogs running around. Do not expect the noise to stop at midnight either. The other thing to consider when looking at a camping site with the view to buying a mobile home is the fact that when the facilities are needed most such as the swimming pool in the summer you will share the facilities with a lot of people who are on holiday and plan to only be there for two weeks.

Not so with residential only parks.

The facilities are there for the residents only and so you know that you will be sharing the facilities with like minded people who have moved to Spain to live.

CHECK FIRST if looking at different parks as to whether it is a camp site/mobile park or a residential style dedicated mobile home park you are being shown.

If the park allows camping you have to accept strangers will be on the park at all times. Some sites have up to 200 camping pitches.

Not so with a dedicated residential style park, only the mobile home owners have access. The park fees tend to be lower as well.

Camp sites also have many different nationalities living on them where as on the UK style parks near Antequera all the residents are British and so a community spirit develops. This is an important factor as you will find making new friends so much easier, ask anyone already living here.

The first question should always be when being shown a new park "does the park also allow camping?". If yes then you at least now know the drawbacks.

Malaga Province:

The villages of Mollina and Alameda are very close to the town of Antequera which boasts everything from a very modern hospital to a shopping mall that you can by practically anything yet has kept a very Andalucian style.

So, you now like the idea of your own home in Spain. What are the advantages. Price of home is the first great advantage followed by security. All the Parks offer peace of mind and that is very important when living in another country.

What do you do next. The first step is to take a look for yourselves, you can either plan a holiday and contact the company or park to tell them you are coming to take a look or book with the company an Inspection Visit. Unless you come to Spain to take a look you will never know if owning a mobile home in Spain is right for you

Buying your Park Mobile home.

Buying a mobile home is a very easy process without all the legal work associated when buying bricks and mortar. If you are using the services of a company such as Costadifference Ltd on the Costa Del Sol then the process is even easier. The first thing is to have a sales agreement drawn up between the seller and yourselves to take effect on a chosen date. The park contract has also to be changed also taking effect on the chosen date. It is very important to ensure that the park contract is secured BEFORE buying the home. Once the sales contract and park contracts have been arranged and confirmed then all that remains is for the funds to buy the home on the agreed completion date are transferred to the sellers bank account and either yourselves or the agents are there to collect the keys from the sellers.
