Looking at buying a mobile home in ND as I have connections there. What is the best way to value an older mobile home? 2000? 1997? Thanks for your help.

John Fedro said it best. Went something similar to: When trying to find the value of a mobile home in a park it depends hugely on the motivation of the seller. If a family loses their job and needs to move asap then the value of the home is much less due to their need to sell. If a family has savings and can sit on their home waiting for a better price then it's worth more. Basically saying it's all depends on the motivation of the seller. Granted this is a method used for mobile homes in parks. On land a simple comp would suffice.
