hen buying or selling individual homes or entire communities, you may want
to take a second look at "America's Auction Authority." The 35-year old
national auction firm, with its widespread advertising reach, has even sold
two entire towns at one point. They offer strong national and regional
advertising campaigns, and a large proprietary listing of ready buyers and
sellers. Utilizing an auction turns a local sales effort into a regional or
national sale. Their unique advantage in serving the community owner is
their expansive network of contacts and industry knowledge, since they serve
the financial institutions and retailers, as well as owners and developers.
Four tiers of service Hudson & Marshall offer community owners are: 1) They
list and sell entire communities, both on a retail brokerage and auction
basis. They have sold 25 communities across the country. 2) Hudson &
Marshall can come in and sell off rental units on site, when communities are
converting to land lease only. 3) Where upgrading community image is top
priority, Hudson & Marshall will assist in selling off a community's older
homes in order to provide more space for newer homes, and 4) Hudson &
Marshall is an economical source for owners who want to buy new or used homes for their
community sites.
Many community owners are realizing the benefits of buying or selling homes
through Hudson & Marshall's highly publicized auctions nationwide. Rather
than picking up individual homes in the field, owners and managers save time,
money and headaches by looking over approximately 100 homes all at one
auction location.
"These homes are ready to roll at auction," said James Cox, Director of The
Manufactured Housing Division of Hudson & Marshall. Transporters are on site
at the auction to quote rates and immediately move homes to their community.
"We are seeing a marked increase in the number of manufactured homes
available for auction, both new and used," said Cox. "Our projections for the
coming year indicate increased inventories for auctions across the country,
but particularly in the Southeast."
Homes can be purchased at auction for a fraction of what they sell for on a
retailer's lot.
Whether you're in the market to sell your community, upgrade your site, or
convert to land-lease only, Hudson & Marshall offers comprehensive
assistance.
