LAKEVIEW
HOMES LLC and GRAND HOMES III LLC are 55+, Active Lifestyle, Senior communities that have been privately
owned and managed by the same family for forty-seven years.
We take pride in operating friendly,
high value, well-maintained, and personalized manufactured housing communities.
Manufactured housing is housing
that is truly affordable housing. It confers on its owners the dignity of making it on their own. The explosion
of "affordable" housing that depends on subsidy from our tax dollars, is not affordable to the majority of
Americans and it will leave our children and grandchildren with debt they do not deserve.
One of our missions is to keep your site rent as competitive
as possible and still not allow the communities to look tired or run down. After forty-eight years in the
business, our typical site rental is $420. Compare that to $600-$800 found in other communities. Our site
rental isn't a teaser rate that jumps hundreds of dollars in a few years.
