Effective Mobile Homes with RE Investor Hive


What is a Mobile Home?

In real estate, mobile homes (also called manufactured homes) are prefabricated housing units built in a factory and then transported to a site for installation. They are a unique segment of the real estate market because they blend aspects of both real property and personal property, depending on how they are situated and titled.


Key Components of Real Estate Mobile Homes:

  1. Types of Mobile Homes
    • Single-Wide - Narrow and compact, typically 600 to 1,300 sq ft.
    • Double-Wide - Two units joined together, about 1,000 to 2,400 sq ft.
    • Triple-Wide or Multi-Section - Larger, often designed to resemble site-built homes.
  2. Key Characteristics
    • Built to HUD standards set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (since 1976)
    • Typically placed on leased land (mobile home parks) or privately owned land
    • Can be titled as personal property (like a car) or real property (if permanently affixed to land)
  3. Ownership Scenarios
    • Mobile Home on Leased Land - You own the home but rent the land (in a mobile home park)
    • Mobile Home on Owned Land - You own both the land and the home, which may increase long-term value and financing options
  4. Why People Invest in Mobile Homes
    • Lower entry cost compared to traditional homes
    • Strong rental demand in many markets
    • Affordable housing solution
    • Opportunities in mobile home parks for recurring income
