Madison has four licensed mobile home communities holding 60 lots: Gibson Trailer Village with 25, Madison Drive-In Trailer Park with 15, and Spring Pine Mobile Home and Wood’s Mobile Home Park with 10 apiece.
Sixty lots in the county seat. Madison County is farm country, so nearly every mobile home here sits on land somebody owns rather than on a rented pad.
Find out what your home is worth. Tell us about it and we will call you back, usually the same day.
Four small parks cannot price a county
Source: Florida DBPR licensed mobile home parks.
A ten-lot park may go five years without a sale. Any number built on that is a coin toss with a chart attached.
We price from Madison County and the north Florida counties around it, weighted toward homes genuinely comparable to yours, and we name the sales that carried the weight. On land that weighting is most of the job, because acreage and road frontage move the number in ways a county average will never show you.
We also will not tell you the home is worth more than it is in order to win the listing. If the honest figure is lower than you hoped, you hear it on the first call rather than after three months of silence.
Almost everybody here is selling, not buying
The searches for this area come overwhelmingly from owners trying to work out what to do with a home, which tells us who this page is for.
Usually it is one of two situations. Either you are moving on and the home has to go with the sale, or a family member has passed, the land is staying in the family, and nobody knows what to do with the home standing on it.
In the second case the buyer takes the home away and your land stays yours, cleared. That is a home that must be moved, with the land explicitly not for sale. There is no park approval step, so these often close faster than homes in communities.
Florida will not permit relocating a home built before June 15, 1976, so the build date settles whether it is possible before anything else. We ask for the data plate on the first call.
Find out what it is worth before you pay to demolish it
Demolition quotes out here run into the thousands, and to a family clearing a parent’s property that can feel like the only road out.
Usually it is not. A structurally sound home has real value to somebody even when it needs work, and even if the home is not worth repairing there is a buyer more often than owners expect. It costs nothing to find out which side of that check you are on.

What it costs
A flat $2,500, paid only when the home sells. Nothing up front, nothing if it does not sell, no percentage. Thirty day agreement.
Professional photography with drone coverage, which earns its keep on rural land because the setting is a real part of what sells the home. A written listing in English and Spanish, syndication to twelve platforms, buyer screening, negotiation, and a written report every week. That is our process from start to finish.
Closings are handled entirely online, which is the only practical way to do it from this end of the state. You will not need to drive to Tallahassee to sign anything.
Once you have the number, see how the numbers compare between listing and taking a cash offer.
If you are buying rather than selling, the homes we have on the market are on My State MLS, statewide rather than local.
What a mobile home broker actually does explains why this takes a different license from a realtor’s. We also work mobile homes in Monticello and mobile homes in Perry.
