Estimating the value of manufactured homes
Article Abstract:
Making market-comparisons and hiring an appraisal service are the two means of estimating manufactured home value. The 'comparison-shopping' approach requires knowledge of current prices of manufactured homes of equal size and condition and an assessment of the community site. Five cost guides may be utilized for valuation purposes. These are Boeckh, NADA, Kelley Blue Book, Marshall and Swift's and Mobile/Manufactured Home Blue Book. Hiring a certified appraiser such as Datacomp can also be considered because they provide more detailed valuation.
