They are making waaaaaay too many hoops to jump through. And, the owners had
the utilities all turned off. Temps the past few have been <10oF. I'll bet
there is now problem with frozen/burst plumbing. I shall raise my sights a bit
for something small enough to suit, in move-in condition, and in a
neighbourhood where I will feel safe/comfortable.

Been in this guy for 15 years now. And I get along with all my neighbours (now
that the old toots with the yappy mutts has moved on). I'll go talk to the
manager of the park about the homes he is flogging and what the finance terms
are. Another of the perks of tin-can living is that my taxes on this are
$47/year. And won't go substantially higher on a newer place as I am not going
to get one that is substantially larger. I'll certainly be under $75/year.

      Title: Cherry Frozen Yogurt Sundaes W/Root Beer Syrup
 Categories: Desserts, Dairy, Fruits
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
MMMMM---------------------------YOGURT--------------------------------
      3 c  Plain Greek-style yogurt
    1/2 c  Sugar
    1/2 c  Light corn syrup
      1 tb Vanilla extract
      2 c  Pitted and chopped fresh
           - sweet cherries

MMMMM----------------------ROOT BEER SYRUP---------------------------
     12 oz Bottle root beer
    1/4 c  Sugar
 
  Whisk together yogurt, sugar, corn syrup, and vanilla in a
  large glass measuring cup until sugar dissolves. Chill
  yogurt mixture at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
  
  Pour yogurt mixture into the chilled canister of an ice
  cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's
  directions. When yogurt is thick and nearly churned, add the
  chopped cherries. Transfer frozen yogurt to an airtight
  freezer-safe container; freeze until solid.
  
  Stir together root beer and sugar for the syrup in a small
  saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce
  heat, and simmer until reduced to a syrupy consistency,
  about 25 minutes. (You should have about 1/2 cup syrup.)
  Chill syrup until ready to serve.
  
  Thaw frozen yogurt at room temperature 10-15 minutes for
  easier scooping. To serve, scoop 1/2 cup frozen yogurt into
  each sundae glass. Drizzle 1 Tbsp. syrup over each serving.
