Things To Know When Working With A Mobile Home Dealer

By Gregory Roberts


If you are looking for a comfortable and high-quality home that doesn't cost a lot of money, you might want to consider the benefits of manufactured dwellings. These units are very high in quality. They are also quite affordable. The best way to locate options that are in line with your budget and your needs is by consulting with a mobile home dealer. Following are a few important things to know when working with these professionals.

You should always have a solid plan for the placement of your purchase before beginning. It makes no sense to invest in these buildings if you do not know where to you're going to place your new home. This remains the case even if you are going to buy one at a much lesser cost from a private party. The good news is that some dealers regularly offer low-cost land and house packages in order to simplify and streamline these purchases.

Before completing any sales transaction, make sure that you are approved to rent a lot in an area that appeals to you or that you can secure an acceptable, private lot at a reasonable cost. This means submitting a rental application. The costs of renting a land are far cheaper than renting a home or apartment and thus, you will still enjoy the low overhead costs of the typical homeowner.

One thing that many people do not know about these products is that they work a lot like vehicles in terms of how their values appreciate. These products do not gain in value over time, even if you are constantly improving upon them. Instead, much like cars, they depreciate the longer that they exist. This does not mean that your investment will not retain a resale value.

Take the time to define your expectations and goals before working with a dealer. As an example, you may be interested only in brand new units. When this is what you want, expect to pay a bit more to get it. Model homes and units that are previously owned are usually available a lot cheaper.

Traditional lending institutions do not generally finance these purchases. These types of building structures do not function well as collateral given the rate at which they depreciate. One thing to note, however, that private loans can be used in lieu of these products if you have an effective form of collateral.

Check out some of the local, mobile home parks in your community to make sure that these are areas in which you don't mind residing. The resident manager can take you on a tour and tell you all about the available community features. Some locations have swimming pools, tennis courts and other features that make them far more appealing.

Local zoning restrictions are important to review given that these can affect your ability to use a private lot for the placement of your purchase. In some neighborhoods, single wide units are not permitted outside of parks. It is necessary to have at least a double wide unit to place it in a typical residential area. That is because these units are hard to distinguish from those that are stick built.
