Communities permitting dogs
or homes in pet sections
generally cost more & have a quicker re-sale.

Most communities have some kind of "waterfront" usually it is not navigable.

Buying Lease Land vs Real Property
A book could be written on this subject.
I offer a few guidelines.

Lease land homes are NOT LISTED in the local Realtors multiple listing data base (MLS)
Lease land homes listed through a mobile home broker rarely allow competing brokerages, or Agents to show their "listed" homes.
There is no licensing of individuals/agents selling lease land homes.
The mobile home Broker/Dealer has a license issued from the
Florida Dept. of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
Lease land brokerages usually tack on some kind of "administrative fee" from $50. - $300. in addition to the price of the home.
Sales tax must be paid on lease land homes.
The State of Florida charges a one time fee of  (?? $60. PRICE CHANGE 9/1/9) per title to transfer ownership of a mobile home.
The State of Florida charges an annual tax based on length of the mobile home.
Financed homes have additional charges.

Buying from an OWNER can reduce the state sales tax by subtracting the $ value of furnishings from the total sales price.
A mobile home BROKER or DEALER CANNOT do this!

Singlewide homes start at $1,000 and doublewides (two titles)
on lease land/rental lots start about $5,000. 
the year built beginning about 1970 and would have monthly rent starting around $400. as of 2010 and may not include water/sewer/trash ($32. - $60.a month).  

There are no viewable records of how much a lease land home sold for - no "comps"

Florida Statute  - FS 723 are the laws governing lease land Parks.
 Please see http://www.myflorida.com/

A single wide home with real property starts about $12,000.
A double wide home with real property starts about $20,000.
Closing costs include title search & insurance - County recording fees
 - transfer of mobile home title(s) - a document preparation/closing fee which includes the Proprietary Lease & Share Certificate transfer for Cooperatives 
A few Cooperatives charge extra $$ for their Association attorney to prepare the Proprietary Lease - the document conveying real property
Financed homes have additional charges
The year built would be prior to 1980 and have monthly maintenance fee of around $100.
usually including water & sewer
Homes that include real property have annual property taxes which will be based on what the new owner pays.
Cooperative share ownership is
Real Property and can be Homesteaded
and may qualify for a
$25,000. or $50,000. Homestead Exemption.
