Own a Brand-New Home for Less Than You Pay in Rent
New manufactured homes starting from $49,900. Smart Living Lowcountry Style.
Most residents pay $1,300–$1,900/month all-in* — less than a comparable apartment, and they're buying their own home.
PAY LESS THAN RENT. OWN YOUR OWN HOME.
In the common scenario with a typical minimum down payment plus homesite deposit and qualified financing, most residents pay approximately $1,300–$1,900/month for a home at Ravenel Gardens — covering the home loan payment, homesite lease, homeowner’s insurance, property taxes, and weekly trash pickup. A comparable apartment in the West Ashley or Summerville area costs about $2,000–$2,400/month.
You pay less per month than typical apartment rent — and you are buying your own home. When the loan is paid off, the loan payment disappears entirely.
*Estimated monthly costs include the typical home loan payment, homesite lease, annual property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, and weekly trash pickup. Based on qualified financing with the minimum lender required down payment plus homesite deposit. Most manufactured home lenders require a minimum 575 credit score and $4,500/month gross household income. Actual costs vary by home model and buyer profile. Loan decision is at the sole discretion of the lender.
