Do manufactured homes appreciate in value as do conventionally built homes?
In general, manufactured homes will appreciate at the same market rate as other homes in the same neighborhood, but, as with all housing, it is subject to the same market factors which affect appreciation. The factors that impact future value include: the housing market in which the home is located; the community in which the home is located; the initial price paid for the home; the age and maintenance of the home; the inflation rate; the availability and cost of community sites; the extent of an organized resale network.
