Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
General Questions
What is a park model home?
A park model home is a small, factory-built home that blends the comfort of a traditional house with the efficiency of compact living. Built to the ANSI A119.5 standard, these homes offer affordability, style, and flexibility. Professionally delivered and set up in many different locations, park models are a popular choice for downsizing, vacation getaways, rentals, or as an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) for guests or family — all while making it easier to enjoy a simpler, more fulfilling way of living.
Are park model homes the same as tiny homes?
Not exactly. Both park models and tiny homes are compact, efficient living spaces, but the key difference is in how they’re built. Tiny homes can be constructed in many different ways, while park models are built to the ANSI A119.5 standard — a nationally recognized code for safety, durability, and livability. That means when you choose a park model, you know your home meets a consistent, trusted standard.
Can I live in a park model home full-time?
Many people enjoy park model homes year-round because they offer comfort, efficiency, and affordability. However, zoning and permitting rules vary by location, so it’s important to check with your local authorities first. Our team can help guide you through the process so you understand your options before buying.

Each home comes move-in ready with essentials like full-size kitchen appliances, built-in cabinetry, durable flooring, and finished interiors.
