- Park Models are considered a type of recreational vehicle (RV), or mobile home.
- They have wheels and a title.
- They are typically not governed by real estate laws.
- They are defined by U.S. Law and are limited to a manufactured size of 400 or fewer square feet.
- Park Models are generally designed for seasonal living and are typically located in RV or mobile home parks.
- Park Model Homes are typically between 10 and 12 feet wide and modern Park Models have complete kitchens and
bathrooms, and are as spacious and luxurious as small vacation homes.
- State and local laws often permit attachments to Park Models such as sheds or porches which,
in temperate climates, can be enclosed to seem like an extra room. Arizona has particularly flexible regulations
relating to Park Model Home Living in designated mobile home parks.
- Park Model Homes are called park models because they can be "parked" anywhere.
Because they are considered RVs, they are not taxed as permanent dwellings, and are well suited for temporary siting.
- Park Models are not only suited for specially designed mobile home parks, but
can be perfect for gated communities, resort campgrounds and marinas.
