Do you want to sell your mobile home in Pasco County? You have two ways to do it.
We can buy it for cash. You pick the closing day. No repairs. No showings.
Or we can list it for you. Most owners get more money that way. You pay $2,500 when it sells. Nothing up front. Nothing if it does not sell.
The listing runs 30 days, not six months. About 8 out of 10 of our homes sell in that time.
We do both. So we will show you both numbers first. Then you pick.
Find out what your home is worth. Tell us the year it went up, the size, the community, and the shape the roof and the floors are in. We call back the same day with a written market analysis built from the closed sales nearest your property, and a cash offer alongside it if you want one. No obligation, no fees, and none of the process starts until you say so. The numbers stay yours whether you list the home, take the cash offer, or let us buy it outright.
Where the lots sit in Pasco County
Source: Florida DBPR licensed mobile home parks.
Ninety licensed mobile home communities sit inside Pasco County, holding 12,339 lots between them. Zephyrhills alone accounts for 5,428 of those, close to half the county stacked into one city. Selling here depends on where a property sits and how much evidence exists to price it.
Zephyrhills and New Port Richey carry more than two thirds of every licensed lot here. Dade City and Hudson add roughly 2,600 more. Past those four the count falls away to a couple of hundred lots or fewer, in Odessa, Lutz, Aripeka and San Antonio.
A property inside a 500 lot community in Zephyrhills has dozens of honest comparable sales behind it. A property on five acres north of San Antonio has almost none. A county average prices neither one.
Two counties wearing one name
The western belt is park country. Zephyrhills, New Port Richey, Hudson and Port Richey are large established communities, many age restricted, each with lot rent, a park office and an approval step for buyers.
The eastern and northern edge is a different animal. Dade City, San Antonio, Saint Leo, Trilby, Lacoochee and the ground toward Crystal Springs are mostly homes on private land, often held by one family for thirty years. No lot rent, no park approval, and frequently a title retired decades ago. Odessa lands between the two, with one community of 225 lots and acreage everywhere else. People out east buy the home and the land together. Selling in one half of Pasco County while pricing off the other is the expensive mistake here.
Is a cash offer the smarter move?
It can be, and we would rather say so than talk you into a listing. We buy mobile homes for cash as well as list them, so one call gets you both numbers from the same broker instead of five investors circling one property, each hoping to buy it cheap. Here is the part cash buyers rarely volunteer.
Ready to see the number? A cash offer has to absorb repairs, holding costs, lot rent running while the home sits empty, and a resale at the far end, so the cash lands well beneath what that property would list for. What the gap buys is speed and certainty, worth every dollar to an estate being settled or a lot rent bill nobody wants to keep paying. Fast is not automatically the better offer, and cash is not automatically the wrong answer either, so take the free market analysis first, set the cash offer beside that figure, and choose with both in front of you. Every offer we make is priced off the same closed sales a listing would use. What we will not do is quote a cash price before you know what a listing would have produced, because that is the one move that costs Pasco County sellers real money. You can compare the two side by side once you hold both numbers.
What listing costs, and how the process runs
A flat $2,500, taken out of the closing and only when the property sells. Nothing up front, no percentage, no fees of any kind if it never sells, and an agreement that runs thirty days instead of six months.
That buys a written market analysis naming the sales behind it, professional photography with drone coverage, syndication to twelve platforms, screening buyers, and a weekly written report. Photographer out in the first few days, listing live by the end of that week, first report the Monday after, and a first offer usually under the asking number. That is the process we follow, and the whole selling process signs online. Around 80% of our listings go under contract inside those thirty days.
If the home has to leave the land, that is a mobile home that must be moved, and a real market exists out here.
Condition, and which buyers show up
Nobody here expects a remodel. Homes trade in these parks with an older roof, a soft floor or a kitchen from 1994. What the condition decides is which crowd shows up. A tidy property pulls owner occupants and retirees moving down from the north. A rough property pulls cash investors and handy buyers who price their own labor in, so the offer comes in lower. Every offer on a rough home is a cash offer, since no lender goes near one. What none of them will buy is a rough property priced as though it had been renovated, and the cash on the table drops every week it sits. On the first call we tell you which market you are selling into.
Every Pasco city we cover
Each has its own page with the local community list and who tends to buy there.
- Zephyrhills, the largest mobile home market in the county
- New Port Richey and Port Richey
- Hudson and Aripeka
- Dade City, San Antonio and Saint Leo
- Trilby and Lacoochee in the north
- Wesley Chapel, Land O Lakes, Lutz and Odessa
- Holiday and Crystal Springs
Whichever of those you are selling in, the call comes to Brenton or Marie, and the same two run the process to the end. What a mobile home broker actually does explains why this takes a different license from a realtor’s.
Start with the free market analysis. There is no obligation in a phone call and none in the analysis, no fees attached to either, and nothing owed if you decide to sit on it another year. If a cash offer is what you want, ask and you will have one in writing, set next to the listing number so you can weigh one offer against the other.
