Part Exchange

I am thinking about purchasing a residential park home. Has anyone part exchanged there bricks & mortar house to a park home, if so will the company give you a fair price on your current property as I am seriously thinking about doing this as I do not want all the rigmarole of selling in this present climate.

Some feedback would be appreciated.

Many thanx.

Hi Cupcake and welcome to the forum,

Some parks use a specialist company for their part exchange deals and others buy your home in themselves.

They all seem to work in a similar way and that is to get two or more valuations from an Estate Agent taking the mean average, less a percentage. Click through to this company who are very active within the park home industry http://www.arcpropertygroup.co.uk

Some also pay your legal costs. There would of course be no Estate Fees. All of this you would need to take into consideration when you are given a price. There is also the advantage of not having to run the risk of a chain breaking down and having to start to find a buyer all over again.

Perhaps it could be a good idea to get a couple of valuations from Estate Agents yourself before you go down this route. This would then give you something to compare.

Good luck and let us know how you get on. I'm sure there would be others very interested.

Regards

Ed.

Thanks Ed that was very helpful

OK Parkinsider - now I know who you are. I always get there in the end!

Richard we do not allow advertising on this forum. You forget I can see your email address and the moment you named your company, it didn't take much intelligence to put the two together. I am afraid I have to delete your posts.

Such a shame as some of your replies were quite good.

Why not advertise with us legitimately? We currently have around 2,000 visitors each day to Park Home Living at the moment and that is in the quietest month of the year!

WOW, this guy P/M'd me said "if the price was right would I consider Shropshire" little worm !!
If the only way he can sell his homes is by going through the back door, I dont want to know.
Just hope when we do buy its not off him .....but how will I know?
This is becomming a headache. How do I know the good guys from the bad ones?

Hi Marge

Sometimes it can be easy. Just do a search in Google with the Park Owner's name and the name of the park and you would be surprised what comes up sometimes!
