Fourteen licensed mobile home communities in Titusville, holding 1,206 lots. Swan Lake Mobile Home Park is the largest at 307, then Whispering Pines Manufactured Home & Rv Community at 138, Missile View Mobile Home Park at 115, Intercoastal Estates Mobile Home Park at 111, Oak Point Mobile Home Park at 109 and River Forest Mhp at 100.
Twelve hundred lots on the Indian River, looking across at the launch pads. The names of these communities tell you when most of them were built, and the space business is busier now than it has been in decades.
Find out what your home is worth. Tell us about it and we will call you back, usually the same day.
One large community, then thirteen mid-sized ones

Swan Lake holds a quarter of the town’s lots on its own, so if your home is in it there are usually recent sales to price against.
Everywhere else it is thinner, and the differences between the thirteen are real: river frontage, age restriction and which office holds the lease all move the number, and two identical homes in different Titusville communities can be well apart on price.
We ask which one you are in on the first call, weight to it, then work out to comparable Brevard County closings, and name the sales that carried the weight.
The space coast is growing again, and that works in your favor
Launch cadence has driven real population growth along this coast, and the housing that came with it is expensive. For a lot of people working here a mobile home is the only way to live within reach of the job.
That is genuine local demand. A well-priced home here does not sit for want of interest; it sits because the price came from the wrong comparables or because approval stalled, and both are fixable without dropping ten thousand dollars in month two.
Much of this housing stock is old, and buyers know it
Several of these communities date from the Apollo era and a good many homes in them have never been substantially updated.
That is not a problem to hide, it is a fact to price. Buyers here have seen plenty of 1970s homes and are realistic about what they are taking on. What loses money is spending four thousand dollars on work that adds two thousand to the price. If work pays for itself we will say which work; if it does not, list it as it stands.
If the home is genuinely past repair there is a buyer for a home that needs more work than it is worth more often than owners expect.
Park approval is where listings actually stall
Fourteen communities means fourteen separate offices, each screening on its own schedule and none publishing how long it takes. A buyer who cannot clear the office is not a buyer, however keen. We screen before anybody walks through your home and chase the application afterwards, because on a thirty day agreement that timing frequently decides whether the sale closes.
We produce the number first, free
Fill in the form and we will call you, ask about the home, its age, condition, community and lot rent, and produce a full Comparative Market Analysis: comparable closings, what is competing with you right now, and a recommended list price with the reasoning written out.
No obligation, and the figures are yours whether you list with us or not. Plenty of people take the analysis, decide the timing is wrong, and call back a year later. That is a perfectly good outcome.
Then look at listing or cash, side by side and decide on your own arithmetic.

What it costs, and what you get
A flat $2,500, paid only when the home sells. Nothing up front, nothing if it does not sell, and no percentage of the sale price. The agreement runs 30 days, not six months, because if we cannot sell it in a month we have not earned the right to hold it.
For that: drone photography, which earns its keep on the river. The listing written in English and Spanish, twelve platforms including Zillow and MHVillage, buyer screening, negotiation, and park approval handled for you.
Every week a written report: views, calls, showings, and how the listing is doing against the market, on the quiet weeks as well. Everything signs online, which suits the many owners here who are only in Florida part of the year. That is what the thirty days look like, and what our clients say is worth two minutes first.
It is worth understanding what financing is available to buyers before you set a price, because on an older home the lending options narrow sharply and that decides how many buyers you actually have.
If you are looking to buy one instead
Our active listings on My State MLS cover the whole state rather than Titusville specifically, and change as homes come and go. Call before you commit to anything there: some are sold to be moved, some sit in parks with strict approval, and it takes two minutes to sort out which.
How brokering works in Florida explains why a home on a rented lot needs a different license from a realtor’s. We also work mobile homes in Cape Canaveral and mobile homes in Cocoa.
