Like most real estate the Seller usually wants too much and the purchaser wants to pay too little with a mobile home park. Certain buyers may have different motivations for purchasing certain park (1031 money, ability receive better financing, conversions to other uses, and location to where they live). In this book we will only look only at the value of a mobile home park for the typical buyer who continues to operate it as a mobile home park.

Anyone that has seen an appraisal on a house or most associated with real estate will have heard mention from the 3 approaches to determining the value of that real property. They are the Cost, Sales, and Income System.

Unless you are coming up with the value of a brand new mobile home park or a single is predominately vacant, I do avoid seeing any reason to be able to the cost tackle. It is not likely the new mobile home park will be built nearby exactly what it would cost to build brand-new park does not just take into account the amount of time, effort, and money it takes to fill that park up with occupied and paying passengers.

As far given that the Sales or Market Comparison approach to value, this one other highly suspect. This is based on comparing the sale of the subject property together with other recent sales and adjusting for differences that you might or might not know about. Problems with this approach include varying expenses, rents, and management. Whether you are an investor or appraiser I would likely use this approach as potential information and not draw any conclusions as a result.
