Selling Your Mobile Home Directly Will Benefit You In Weatherford
Determining Value
About 50% of mobile homeowners own the land their mobile home is sitting on, while the other 50% do not. If the manufactured home comes with the land, it is considered real property if it is being sold without the land, it is considered personal property. This will obviously make a difference when determining the sale’s value. If the mobile home is on leased land, the park manager will have some say in who is allowed to buy. Also, remember that your mobile home depreciates over time, while the land under it will likely increase in value.
There are a few things to consider when determining the value of your Weatherford area mobile home. How old is the property? What is the current condition? What is the demand like in your neighborhood? Many owners will choose to have a professional appraisal done as mobile home prices vary widely. To avoid the cost of an appraisal, you can also check out the mobile home value reports from J.D. Power. They have reports at different prices, so you can pay for only the information you need.
Benefits of Avoiding The MLS
Selling your mobile home directly on the MLS with a Weatherford real estate agent can severely cut your profits. Many people opt to sell their properties on their own or to a professional mobile home buyer. Listing with an agent can mean months before your mobile home sells, which doesn’t work for many people. In addition, when you avoid selling your manufactured home with a real estate agent and choose instead to sell to a local investor, you won’t have to worry about repairs, commissions, fees, or marketing costs.
Many agents shy away from these sorts of properties anyhow, as the commissions are low compared to single-family real estate. Some mobile homeowners will enlist the help of their park manager when selling. Before doing this, make sure they are well-versed in the process.
Selling To An Investor
You will save time, money, and stress by skipping the MLS and the traditional selling process. Here are a few benefits to selling your house directly to TMC Property Solutions. Keep in mind that not all buyers are the same.
- No Listing – You will not need to hire an agent to put your property on the MLS or worry about commissions, agent fees, and administrative costs.
- Marketing – There is no need to photograph, market, or pay for advertising. You won’t have to worry about marketing your mobile home or showing it to potential buyers.
- Cleaning – When listing any property, it needs to be kept clean for potential buyers to make the best impression. With a direct sale, you won’t have to worry about the continuous cleaning that a listing requires.
- Time – There is no guarantee when listing any real estate. Your property could sell in days, or the process could take months. With a direct sale of your mobile home to TMC Property Solutions, you will receive your money right away. You’ll know the exact amount you’re getting and on what day so you can plan ahead accordingly.

Selling On Your Own
Selling your mobile home directly on your own can take some legwork, but it will help you avoid the costs of hiring an agent. First, you’ll need to make repairs and get the place cleaned up. When you choose to create a for sale by owner listing or FSBO, you will be responsible for the entire process, which can turn into a lot of work, especially if you aren’t familiar with the process. You will need to pay for marketing costs such as online ads, print listings, printed items such as flyers, and signage to place out front. You will also need to take calls, answer questions, and show the property as needed. Once you find a buyer, you’ll have to create and process the contracts as well as the escrow process. If you are committed to selling, doing it on your own can save thousands.
However, there are some drawbacks compared to selling to an investor. Just like when hiring an agent, you will not have any guarantee of whether or when the mobile home will sell. It could take days, weeks, or even months. If you have the time and money to wait, this might be ok with you. However, if you are looking for a way to sell your manufactured home fast, working with an investor like TMC Property Solutions will likely be the better way for you to sell.
