Park Homes in Baja

What is a park home and who can buy one?

More than 30,000 U.S., now Baja California residents, are currently living in park homes along the Playas de Rosarito Coast. It’s a very popular way of life — especially among the older community — as it offers peace and quiet, as well as security.

Park homes are detached private homes that are located within a park community with a live security entrance. They’re typically manufactured offsite and then placed on land that is owned by the park land owner. Over the decades, most park homes have morphed into permanent dwellings within the private park communities. The campos, or parks, have very desirable land to lease, sometimes with private access to the beach. To get the prime locations, the new generation is buying up the original homes and remodeling them to their tastes.

When you buy a park home, you own the building itself, but not the land it sits on. Instead, you’ll rent the space from the park owner. The land rent is paid monthly, leases are renewed annually.

Park homes are classed as ‘mobile homes’. However, they are static for the most part, and are rarely moved. Within these communities, there are brick and mortar homes that are included. When you buy a park home, it’s vital that you think carefully about its location. Every park has its own vibe, and all of them are good.
