Ownership details matter
When comparing a traditional home, condominium, or manufactured-home community, ask exactly what you own and which costs continue after closing. Confirm whether land is included or leased, what dues cover, and which maintenance tasks remain yours. Review community documents instead of assuming that similar-looking properties have similar rules.
