One of the most confusing parts of selling a mobile home is the price. You see a home down the street listed for $60,000. You see a similar size home 10 miles away sold for $150,000. Why the difference?
The “Lot Rent” Factor
In a land-lease community, the value of the home is inversely related to the Lot Rent.
- Low Lot Rent ($400/mo): Home is worth MORE. The monthly payment is affordable, so buyers pay more upfront.
- High Lot Rent ($900/mo): Home is worth LESS. The monthly payment is high, so the price must be lower to attract a buyer.
Zestimate doesn’t know your lot rent. That’s why online estimates are almost always wrong.
The “Book Value” vs. Market Value
The NADA book value (blue book for mobile homes) is just a guide. It doesn’t account for:
- Park Condition: Is the pool nice? Are the roads paved?
- Park Restrictions: Is it 55+ or Family? (Family parks often have higher demand).
- The “Project” Factor: Does it need a roof?
