Park models are homes built on a chassis with wheels according to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) standards and ANSI 119.5 requirements. While park models are considered an RV, they are made to be installed for extended housing use. Outside of Florida, park models must be under 400 square feet of interior living space. The homes are typically one bedroom and one bath with the exception of our lofted homes that provide additional sleeping space.
Primarily RV parks and some mobile home parks will allow park models. If you want to place it on private property, you need to check with your county/city zoning department and ask if your property is zoned to allow park models. Park models are considered a RV and they are built to RV codes, not HUD Manufactured home specifications. Determining how your private property is zoned is essential for an installation permit typically needed for a park model.
That is the designation of an RV. Anything over 400 square feet falls into the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) codes and is called a mobile or manufactured home. Interior living space is calculated to determine the square footage of a park model. The lofted areas are not considered in the interior square foot calculation due to their short height. Exterior porches also do not count towards the square footage calculation.
Our park models are built in the state of the art factory in Glendale, Arizona. Cavco Industries launched this facility in 2022 after decades of operating two other locations in Arizona. The new facility boasts top of the line production equipment for today’s booming prefabricated industry.
