“What Are My Options To Sell My Mobile Home Fast In San Antonio?”
Mobile Home Owners in San Antonio who want to sell their mobile home quickly need to know what their options are…
If you own a mobile home and you’re thinking, wondering, “how do I sell my mobile fast in San Antonio” this blog post is a quick tutorial on your available options, and how you decide which option is right for you.
The speed of selling your home comes down to three main factors:
1. How long you’re willing to take to sell your mobile home
2. How much you’re willing to spend to sell your mobile home
3. How much you’re asking for your mobile home
Option #1: What Is Your Timeline?
The first factor is: how long are you willing to take to sell your mobile home? Most people think of selling their mobile home the traditional way, by listing through an agent. This method of selling can take 3 to 6 months (sometimes longer, depending on market conditions). So if you have a lot of time and are not in any rush, this might be a good option for you. But, it only works for mobile homes on private land being sold with the land. Realtors do not sell mobile homes in parks, we do! We can also help if you need to sell a mobile home and have it moved off your property, we have done this many times and are happy to answer any questions you have about the process! If your home is in a mobile home park your options are to sell it yourself or have a Licensed Retailer/Broker sell it for you. We do this from time to time and do not charge a commission, if that interests you just reach out to us and we will walk you through it, easy peasy. 🤝
However, many mobile home owners don’t want to wait that long. Usually people sell because they need to move and they don’t always have 3 to 6 months (or longer) to wait for a sale. So there is another option, and that is to bypass the agent and sell directly to a mobile home buyer like us! We buy mobile homes in San Antonio, Seguin, San Marcos, New Braunfels and all the surrounding areas.
Option #2: How Much Do You Want To Spend?
Most people are surprised by this question because they don’t realize that they have to spend money to sell their mobile home but if you sell the traditional way, there are two times that you have to spend money: before you list, when you renovate your property to get it ready to sell; and after you sell, when you pay your real estate agent a commission for selling the property. Both of these can costs THOUSANDS of dollars. That only applies to mobile homes on private land. Mobile homes in parks are titled as “personal property” so realtors are not able to sell them. For mobile homes in parks you want a Retailer/Broker in Texas that is licensed through the TDHCA. Luckily for you, we are licensed in Texas!
Not all mobile home owners are comfortable SPENDING all that money in order to SELL their house. If you’re a mobile home owner who would prefer to keep more in your pocket, you have another option: you can sell your house direct to a mobile homebuyer like us at JourneyMobileHomes. We buy mobile homes as-is and take care of all costs (and there are no fees or commissions). 👊
Option #3: Selling Price
Some mobile home owners believe that the market price for their house will be high, so they’re willing to wait and gamble and see if a buyer will purchase it for that price. When a buyer is eventually found, they MIGHT offer the same, or less than the asking price. Often times with mobile homes in parks this requires talking to many people online that end up being tire kickers. Out of those you will get a few that will schedule an appointment to see the home. Out of those even less will show up to the appointment! It can be a real headache and frustrating experience if you don’t already have systems and marketing set up. Luckily for you we have that aswell.
But not all mobile home owners like the “unknown” of this gamble. They don’t want to wait months in the hopes that someone will offer what they’re asking. They subscribe to the saying, “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush”, meaning that they’d rather work with a mobile home buyer – even one who might offer slightly less than a market price – in order to know EXACTLY how much they can get for their house right this very instant.
If you’re a mobile homeowner and you’re wondering, “What are my options to sell my mobile home fast in San Antonio” then it really comes down to these 3 factors that will determine whether you’re willing to list or to sell right now.
