As of late, trading in your mobile home has become pretty popular. The dealers make it very simple and straightforward to swap out a used mobile home for a new one. But there’s a small catch when it comes to valuing the manufactured home.
Most of the time the dealers won’t pay true market value for the home. Instead, they use the NADA book value and then ask for additional price discounts when your mobile home is not in perfect condition.
So, you have two choices. Your first choice is to take the value that the dealer gives you and accept the new mortgage and the new mobile home.
Your second choice, which is the smartest choice, would be to get a competitive offer for your mobile home. Over the last couple of years, we’ve bought quite a few mobile homes from owners that were going to trade them in until they saw our offer.
At EZ Mobile Home Buyer we provide an all-cash offer and will work with you to ensure that you get that brand new manufactured home that you want but you’ll have a larger down payment which makes life easier.
In Texas, there are many trade-in programs in which you can take advantage of but they don’t always offer the highest price and you’ll probably have to make a bunch of expensive repairs.
Selling For Cash Versus Trading In
Homeowners looking to sell their used mobile homes are doing so for a variety of reasons. Such as job relocation, foreclosure, health issues, death in the family and wanting to upgrade to a larger house.
Selling your home to a cash buyer is just as simple as trading it in so, don’t be fooled by the quick and easy process of trading in your home. Go the extra mile and get a second offer from a local company that will buy your mobile home for cash.
No Repairs
Repairs are time-consuming and can be expensive. You may decide to sell your house without making any repairs, but the manufacturer won’t take on trade in if it needs work. You’ll be responsible for fixing it which means you’ll need the cash to pay for all of the repairs.
That’s why most homeowners work with cash buyers because they don’t have to pay for repairs and they don’t have to wait months to get their new manufactured home.
Common Repairs
- Replace the carpet
- Interior paint
- Interior ceiling paint
- New plumbing
- New electrical wiring
- Appliances
- Window repair or replacement
- HVAC replacement
- Heat pump
- Water heater
- Odors or smells from animals, greasy food, or cigarette smells
- Leaky roof
When you sell your house for cash, you can leave it as-is without making any major or minor repairs.
“My house had some major damage that I couldn’t afford to fix before I sold it. Luckily, EZ Mobile Home Buyer took it the way it was and I didn’t have to worry about a thing.” –Angela S.
No Application Fees, Moving Fees or Paperwork Fees
When trading in your home, you’ll need to factor in the cost of hidden fees which can vary between manufacturers.
But when you sell your home for cash, you don’t have to worry about any of those hidden costs.
“I talked to Jerred at EZ Mobile Home Buyer because I needed money for my house. The offer he gave was the amount I walked away with. I’ll definitely work with them again.” –Brian M.
