https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93ckWXrXOvg Hey Guys! We’re back again for another discussion on mobile home soft spots that could be a problem. Today, we will discuss how to avoid getting those pesky soft spots in the first place. But first, let’s review what soft spots are in mobile home floors so that we’re all caught up and on the same page before moving forward. Mobile home soft spots occur when a portion of the floor gets wet and begins to swell, eventually causing a hole in the wood floor. This can happen through an appliance that is running, a pipe under the home that has burst, or several liquid spills in the same general area that were not cleaned up quickly. Over time, the liquid will soak through the flooring and get to the wood subfloor, which causes it to begin to cave in...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL4HB7K0b0A When selling a mobile home in Sarasota, who pays the tax? When we work with mobile home Buyers and Sellers in Sarasota, they oftentimes have many questions and concerns about how the closing is done when selling a mobile home on leased land. Have you been curious as to who pays the tax on a mobile home that’s sold on leased land? Wondering who the tax is paid to and for how much? We have learned that providing a thorough explanation to both the Buyers and Sellers about who pays what tax and when before the closing of a mobile home on leased land helps tremendously once the home is ready to be sold. Mobile homes on leased land are taxed in the state of Florida as personal property. This is the same way a boat or a vehicle is taxed. The reason...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiI2uvnZSHQ When I was asked the other day by a Seller how we sell Sarasota mobile homes fast, I felt like the answer I gave them came as a surprise. I believe they expected me to come out with some rabbit-out-of-a-hat answer, or some dynamic explanation about what we do and how we do it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFyzvenjLrc Are you having problems selling your Sarasota mobile home? I have clients come to me all of the time telling me, “Mark, I can’t get my home sold!” Anytime I hear this, I feel for them because I, too, know what it feels like to do something monumental like selling a home only for that to be constantly put on hold.

Many times, sellers are trying to sell their homes themselves, which, although it isn’t a bad way of going about getting a home sold, just is not as financially efficient as hiring a qualified licensed mobile home broker who does this daily. What I have seen over and over is when homes are not selling, it’s not due to the home itself, the park the home is located in,...
