Looking to sell your Mobile Home?
We can help!
If you are getting ready to sell your mobile home there are some specific steps to getting that home ready to list. Here are a few suggestions.
Home Evaluation
When selling your home knowing the estimated value of the can be helpful in calculating the selling price. This information also gives the buyer the information they might need should they seek financing. We work with Datacomp Appraisal, which is a nationwide certified appraising company. They specifically work with manufactured and mobile homes within communities. They send an inspector to the home so an appraiser can calculate the value by comparing the home’s make, model and condition with the comparable sales in the area.
MHVillage also offers a manufactured home valuation report to help you understand and calculate the potential resale value of your home. This is a simple online option that will let you enter home information. It will generate the value of the home by comparing your details to the value within the NADA Book.
Staging
Something we see quite a bit is a home that is listed but not properly staged. Even if you are still living in the home, there is a huge impact a properly staged home, clear of clutter and bulky furniture can make.
“If a home is vacant, furnish only the main rooms: living, dining, and family. Otherwise, people have trouble picturing how it can be set up.”
-Bill Golden with Re/Max Metro Atlanta Cityside
Photos
Once your home has been de-cluttered, organized and is ready to be seen, this is the best time to snap some photos! When it comes to advertising a home, the photos can make or break the sale.
Here is a great piece on that from our newsletter: “Good vs Bad Photos”!
