1120 E Mission Road #81, Fallbrook, CA: Selling a Rehabbed Manufactured Home With a High Lease
1120 E Mission Road, Unit 81, Fallbrook, CA sold for $160,000 (MLS #NDP2111970), a rehabbed manufactured home in a park with a high land lease. Stendall Realty Group corrected the price and improved the marketing, and broker Ray Stendall found a buyer who could accept the lease and value the work.
Jim came as a referral from another agent who was struggling to sell the property. It was a manufactured home in a park with a very high land lease, around $1,000 per month, which limited the buyer pool even though Jim had rehabbed the unit as an investment.
Why a high land lease narrows the buyers
A manufactured home in a park comes with a monthly lease, and a high one shrinks the pool of buyers who can carry it. The rehab work matters, but only to a buyer who can also afford the lease. That combination is exactly where the first agent got stuck.
If your property has a built-in cost that scares buyers off, the answer is to price right and find the buyer it actually fits. Ray Stendall found that buyer.
How the right buyer cleared the lease
Stendall Realty Group corrected the pricing, improved the photography, and marketed the rehabbed condition to the right audience. Then Ray found a buyer who could accept the high land lease while appreciating the quality of the rehab.
The home sold, where another agent had struggled. The right price and the right buyer were the whole answer.
