What comes to mind when you first hear “mobile home community?” Do the words, “attractive”, “secure”, or “luxurious” come to mind? You may be surprised to find that today’s mobile home communities, especially in the Silicon Valley are not what you may think.
Modern mobile home communities offer a variety of services and sought after amenities suitable for every lifestyle. Some communities feature active adult and family activities, fitness centers, and organized social events. Clubhouses, pools, tennis courts, and walking trails are just a few of the wonderful amenities offered that many apartments and site built homes do not provide. Take for instance, Sunset Estates Community, a peaceful and friendly senior community or Timber Cove, an all age community perfect for families as it’s located near award winning school districts and features a playground area.
Some mobile home communities are conveniently located near schools, freeways, and shopping while others are closer to lakes, mountain resorts, and golf courses. Enjoy the lavish landscape and scenic tree-lined streets areas at the luxurious Adobe Wells community or scenic tree-lined streets and lush landscaping at Mountain Shadows community. Such communities provide a secure living environment; neighbors look out for one another, therefore creating a full-time neighborhood watch. Professional community managers work hard to keep their communities clean and safe; some communities only allow residents and guests to enter. Depending on your lifestyle you can choose from the many communities in the Silicon Valley that best fit your location needs and desires.
There are many different communities to choose from all over the area. We are active in communities throughout Sunnyvale, San Jose, East Bay, Santa Clara, and Santa Cruz. Whether you are looking for that perfect home or looking to sell, Alliance Homes is here for you! Call today to speak with an agent for more information on our manufactured homes or communities in your area!
Summer is the perfect season for camping, gardening, barbecues, and many other outdoor activities. It’s also the perfect season for buying a home. What better time to shop for a home when the weather is sunny and warm, the kids are out of school, and there is more time to spend together as a family? There is nothing worse than moving belongings in cold and rainy weather. That’s why moving is much easier in the summer as the weather conditions are more pleasant.
So, why take advantage of the current housing environment this summer? For one thing, historically low interest rates are making a home purchase more attractive. According to Moody’s Analytic, the 2011 ratio of home prices to income is approximately 21%, which is lower than the 15-year average through 2010. Those purchasing a home in the coming summer are likely to experience affordable interest rates on home loans, which can potentially reduce monthly costs or overall cost depending on the mortgage chosen for the home. What’s even more is that mortgage rates are lower than they have been in the last 50 years.
Given that these conditions are expected to change in the next few years you may want to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. At Alliance we encourage you to shop around.
Our agents at Alliance Manufactured Homes are very passionate and experienced in the field and can answer any questions you may have. We are not satisfied until our customers are satisfied – Why Compromise?
Memorial Day—a day that commemorates United States soldiers who died while honoring, serving and fighting for our country. Observed this Monday, May 30th, it is a United States federal holiday. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War, then it was extended after World War I to honor Americans who have died in all wars. Memorial Day often marks the start of summer vacation season. Since it is an observed federal holiday, all federal buildings, libraries, public schools and banks are closed, a three day weekend many look forward to.
However, Alliance Manufactured Homes will be open to conveniently serve those that are interested in a New Home! We will be holding many open houses throughout this weekend and as well as on Monday. We look forward to seeing you this Memorial Day Weekend!
Have a safe weekend from all of us at Alliance Manufactured Homes!

A manufactured home is a single-family house constructed entirely in a controlled factory environment, built to the federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards – better known as the HUD Code.
Many types of structures are built in the factory and designed for long-term residential use. In the case of manufactured and modular homes, units are built in a factory, transported to the site and installed. In panelized and pre-cut homes, essentially flat subassemblies (factory-built panels or factory-cut building materials) are transported to the site and assembled. The different types of factory-built housing can be summarized as follows:
Manufactured Homes: These are homes built entirely in the factory under a federal building code administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HUD Code went into effect June 15, 1976. Manufactured homes may be single- or multi-section and are transported to the site and installed. The federal standards regulate manufactured housing design and construction, strength and durability, transportability, fire resistance, energy efficiency and quality. The HUD Code also sets performance standards for the heating, plumbing, air conditioning, thermal and electrical systems. It is the only federally-regulated national building code. On-site additions, such as garages, decks and porches, often add to the attractiveness of manufactured homes and must be built to local, state or regional building codes.
Modular Homes: These factory-built homes are built to the state, local or regional code where the home will be located. Modules are transported to the site and installed.
Panelized Homes: These are factory-built homes in which panels -a whole wall with windows, doors, wiring and outside siding – are transported to the site and assembled. The homes must meet state or local building codes where they are sited.
Pre-Cut Homes: This is the name for factory-built housing in which building materials are factory-cut to design specifications, transported to the site and assembled. Pre-cut homes include kit, log and dome homes. These homes must meet local, state or regional building codes.
Mobile Homes: This is the term used for manufactured homes produced prior to June 15, 1976, when the HUD Code went into effect. By 1970, these homes were built to voluntary industry standards that were eventually enforced by 45 of the 48 contiguous states.
