There are not necessarily “right or wrong” ways to fill up a pre-existing mobile home community; however, there are some methods that may make more financial sense than others based on your parks’ conditions and locations.
As you read the ideas below, please set aside emotions to look objectively and logically at the exact mobile home park you intend to fill. Therefore, before pulling the trigger on adding any mobile homes to a community, make sure to understand:
Your starting capital
Your credit
The local demand from buyers and sellers
The local population
State and local laws concerning age/size requirements of moving mobile homes into the area
Your desired exit strategy (i.e. sell or rent)
Not every method discussed below may be possible or desirable based on the situation of the park and/or owners.
5 Ways to Add Mobile Homes To Mobile Home Parks
1. Buy New (Cash or Financing)
New 3-bedroom singlewide manufactured homes (most basic models) may be purchased in the low $20,000s. New models can range from the low $20,000s to over $100,000 before delivery, A/C, or setup. These new manufactured homes may be purchased via cash, private money, or bank financing.
Advantages: Instant access to new and beautiful homes.
Disadvantages: Heavy cash outlay or financing commitment before you start making any profit.
2. Creative Lender Programs
As of right now, there is a single program intended to help park owners add multiple new manufactured homes to their communities without cash needed up front. This creative lender program, offered by 21st Mortgage Corporation, gives very competitive bank financing terms for your end-buyer once found. In short, the program stipulates the following process:
Your park and you become approved with 21st Mortgage Corporation.
