You may be saying I need to sell my mobile home quickly ..we understand it …. divorce, job relocation, death in the family however, selling a mobile home can take months, it may take years and you probably don’t have that kind of time. You need a solution now. Here are some advantages to selling to a broker like me and how the process works.
I Want to Sell my Mobile Home Quickly
If you sell to an, individual buyer, you will have to deal with getting them approved by the mobile home park. This process can take up to a month or longer.
You could have to deal with the park denying buyers that you bring in. They need to have good credit to afford the month to month lot rent. Plus, many parks won’t let you put for sale signs up in your window. How are you going to market the home and where are you going to market it?
You would also have to find someone who has cash to buy. Most banks won’t finance mobile homes that are older. They typically won’t finance mobile homes that are 10 years or older. They generally have to appraise for what you are asking for the mobile home.
Ugh, so now your buyer needs park approval, loan approval and let’s not forget your buyer needs to have a clean record to comply with park rules. Let’s not even start with how quickly the new buyers need you out of the mobile home.

Solution: Sell to a broker / dealer click here to get a quick offer. I don’t need to be approved by the park, I can buy quickly and give you time to move.
Sell My Mobile Home Fast: Problems
If you can not sell the mobile home and you move out there is also the fear of leaving the home empty. You could have break ins or a water pipe break while your not living in the home. This can cause major expensive damage to the mobile home. You also don’t have the funds to pay for 2 homes and the bills that come along with them….it is beyond frustrating …
Many times other buyers get almost to the end of the process of buying your home and something goes wrong so YOU have to start all over again with a new buyer. Now you’re talking even more money.
Do I Really Want To Show A Bunch Of Strangers My Mobile Home
Lastly, on a personal note from the author… I recently moved, and it wasn’t a lot of fun cleaning my house top to bottom every time I had to show it. Plus, having strangers come through my home. I had to watch them each time they wanted to see the home and it was not a lot of fun. I had other things to do with my kids during nights and weekends. I was just simply a busy person like most people are now a days. I usually wanted my husband home with me during the showings. He worked different hours so this made the showings even more difficult.
Selling the mobile home by yourself might make you a bit more money on the home but is it worth it?

2.) Next you send me pictures (maybe 15 to 20 minutes of your time). You can email those or you can text them. I try to make it easy.
3.) I can then make you an offer and you can decide if it will work for you!
TIP: Make sure you have your mobile home title. You may also have a bill of sale for a mobile home. Either way make sure you tell the broker / dealer which one you have.

Now you may be behind on payments on your mobile home to the bank and facing mobile home foreclosure. If you are there are some options that you can look into. First, call the bank and talk with a manager. See if there are options for you with the bank.

Moving Fast From Your Mobile Home: Back Lot Rent
You might be back on lot rent and the park is telling you you need to move now. Don’t lose your home back to the park. You have rights in this situation as well. Even if the park has already filed in court and you have a date you have to be out by its not too late to fix this situation. Contact us and we can help!

Mobile Home Moving Fast Tips:
When you need to sell your mobile home quickly its important to have some type of checklist. This will help you make sure you are covering everything off and not leaving any loose ends. Here is a handy 30 day check list that may make the move that much easier.
When you are moving quickly it is very easy to forget steps along the way. This list will keep you on track.
Moving Quickly: Park Office
Once you have a new buyer contact your park office to give them a 30 day written notice of your plans to vacate the mobile home. I would put the notice in writing and mail it with a confirmed receipt that they did receive it. That way you have proof of delivery to the park office.
TIP: Don’t forget this step it could save you hundreds
Make sure to provide the park with your new forwarding address as well. When you purchased the home you paid a deposit to the park on the lot if you want that back you must provide a new forwarding address to the park office. Many times tenants will pay hundreds of dollars towards these deposits.
If you need help moving check with friends / family and schedule a date now. People have busy lives and their weeks fill up fast. The sooner you can book a date the better. If you need to hire a moving company start checking now their dates also fill up fast. Remember if you are doing the move on your own you will want to check with a moving truck company as well. There is nothing worse than going to move and having these trucks not be available. Book Now!
I Want to Sell My Mobile Home Quickly: Extra Cash Idea
Have a garage sale to get rid of items you just don’t need. In the long run it will make you some money and there will be less clutter for you to have to move. Be sure to check the items out online you never know what treasure you might have. Facebook marketplace and EBAY is a great place to check values on items.
If you have unwanted clutter you can always call the Salvation Army or a nearby donation company. Many times they have trucks and they will come and get the items.
TIP: To Help Make The Move Easier – Who Doesn’t Like That
Now that you have all your items that you want to keep put them in boxes and label the outside of the boxes with a marker or label showing which room each box needs to go in.
Go visit your local Secretary of State or Bureau of Motor Vehicle to get your license changed. Later on when you are looking to get different debit cards or change your bank information many banks require that your drivers license reflects your new address. If you do it now it will be less you have to worry about later on.
Contact your TV / cable provider to disconnect services. Many services now offer a moving service where you can take the same service with you to your new home. If you are happy with the service provided why not take them up on this offer.
Tell your garbage / recycling company you will no longer need their services at that address because you are moving. See if they offer services in your new location. They may give you a discount for moving and keeping your service with them.
Sell Your Mobile Home Quickly: Utility Companies
Get in touch with your electric company and give them a specific date to turn off the power in your name at your mobile home. Make sure if it is a winter month and someone is taking the home over that you coordinate with the new buyer so that you don’t turn over a home that is frozen up.
Tell your gas company to turn off the gas. Many times the gas and the electric company are the same company but if you have a separate provider you are going to want to call to set a date.
If the mobile home is going to be empty for some time you may want to contact the park to have the water shut off at the meter. A leaky pipe while no one is in the home can make for a bad situation really quickly.
Finally be sure to turn your mail keys into the park office when you leave. Many times they will charge you for a set of mail keys if they are not returned properly.
