To doublewide or not to doublewide?

So I guess there are some people out there that only buy singlewides. I am not one of these people. Thus if you are asking yourself the age old question of "How do I sell my doublewide in Austin?" the answer is simple: call me!

Now many times people will ask me "how does it work?" I know that there are people who talk about the book value of mobile homes and things like that. In my experience those things are not really relevant. The main reason being a mobile home is not a car. It's located on land or many times in a mobile home park. So where it's located plays a large part in how much it's worth and therefore how much I can pay for it.

I'm sure you've heard the whole "location, location, location" quote about real estate before. This is equally true with mobile homes. What I mean by this is you could take the exact same doublewides, built in the same year and factory, with identical amenities and put them in two different parks. Even if they are kept in identical condition years later, they will be worth very different amounts. And this can even be in two different mobile home parks that are literally right down the street from each other. I've seen this happen many times in Austin and other cities as well.

So this is all a long winded way of saying that I'll need to come look at your mobile home and mobile home park before I can make you an accurate offer on your doublewide. My end goal will be to buy your home, fix it up, and re-sell it. So I always start with what I think I can re-sell it for and work backwards. I calculate out the repair costs, the lot rent, utilities, taxes, and other expenses. From there I can figure out exactly what I can pay and then I make you an offer. I'm always happy to walk you through my numbers and if we can't make a deal, I have a separate business that helps people sell their mobile homes.

So give me a call if you want to sell your doublewide. I can buy it or help you sell it.
