Used Mobile Homes for sale by dealers or outside of parks?

Post by linda purdy » Thu Apr 05, 2007 3:51 pm

I live in Southerm California, Orange County, but I am able to travel within 100 miles to look for a used mobile home. My question: Are used mobile homes sold on lots or by dealers in Southern California?
I live in a very fine space within a park, but in an old pre 1976 mobile home. I want to keep the space, but cannot afford to purchase a new mobile home. I would like to move a used later model mobile into this space, that I already occupy, and then sell the old one for what I can get and have it moved to Mexico.
I want to avoid paying for the location of a used mobile home that is being sold within a park.
I would be grateful for any information.
sincerely,
Linda Purdy

Used homes are sold by dealers and by private parties who own and want to sell. You can often find pre-owned homes in excellent condition with many of the same amenities found in a new home but the price can be significantly less. The advantage in purchasing from a dealer is that he will make all the arraignments for transportation and installations. In most state today you will need to use a licensed installer, and install the home to a strict code. You will also need to obtain permits form the local building authorities to set up you home and permits to hook-up to the water sewer and electric. Additionally permits and insurance may be required for transporting your home, as in many places manufactured homes are considered wide-loads, limited to specific roadways. An experienced, licensed dealer will handle all those arraignments for you and often he will take your older home in trade. The trade in route will give you a discount on your purchase and you will have the dealer coordinating and simplifying the issue of eliminating the unwanted home from your space just before your newer home arrives. This will offer you the least amount of time that you will have no home to live in on that nice spot.Here are three paths to follow if your determined to strike out on your own.
