Frequently Asked Questions
Do you buy mobile homes on rented land or in mobile home parks?
Yes. We buy mobile homes in West Des Moines whether they are on land you own, on a rented lot, or in a mobile home park. The land ownership situation does not prevent a cash sale.
Can I sell my mobile home if it is titled as personal property, not real estate?
Yes. Many mobile homes are titled as personal property rather than real estate. We handle both title types and can work with your state's DMV or housing authority to ensure a clean transfer.
What if my mobile home was manufactured before 1976?
We buy pre-HUD-code mobile homes (manufactured before June 1976) as well as newer manufactured homes. Age and HUD certification status do not disqualify your home from receiving an offer.
Do you buy single-wide and double-wide mobile homes?
Yes. We purchase single-wides, double-wides, and triple-wide manufactured homes in West Des Moines. Size and configuration do not affect your eligibility for a cash offer.
What if my mobile home has roof leaks, soft floors, or other damage?
We buy mobile homes as-is in West Des Moines. Roof damage, soft subflooring, water intrusion, outdated plumbing, or cosmetic issues are all conditions we are prepared to handle.
Can I sell my manufactured home if I still owe money on it?
Yes. If you have an existing loan or lien on your mobile home, we can work with your lender to pay off the balance at closing. You receive the difference between our offer and your remaining balance.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
