Garibaldi, Oregon: A Working Harbor Town for Park-Home Sellers

Why Garibaldi Buyers Are Different

Garibaldi is in Tillamook County, on Tillamook Bay, north of Tillamook itself. The 2020 Census counted 830 people. Fishing boats, crabbing, and the harbor define daily life here, and many buyers come for the bay rather than for a suburb. A park home in Garibaldi sells on affordability near the water, not on square footage alone.

Go On MLS covers manufactured homes in parks and on leased land only, not land sales. If your home is in a Garibaldi park, the buyer gets the home and a rented lot. Make that clear in the first paragraph of your listing, alongside the rent, so harbor dreamers and practical buyers alike know the deal.

Biak Village and the Harbor RV Parks

The site directory lists no mobile home park in Garibaldi, so the places below come from outside sources, with no directory link claimed. Biak Village Mobile Home Park, at 601 First Street, Garibaldi, OR 97118, is the manufactured-home community named for the town, also listed as Biak Trailer Courts at 61 First St with 48 lots. No published rent was found for it, so confirm rent with the park office. Two RV parks also sit in town: Port of Garibaldi RV Park, at 606 S Biak Ave, Garibaldi, OR 97118, with full hookups, and Harborview Inn and RV Park, at 302 South 7th Street, Garibaldi, OR 97118. Both are RV parks, named here as RV parks only, not as mobile home parks.

The Transfer Steps

DCBS transfers ownership of a park home as personal property, for $55, with no deed. The county certifies taxes are paid on Form 2952 before the transfer completes. ORS 90.680 gives the park 7 days to accept or reject a complete buyer application, or 10 days if the 10-day pre-sale notice was not given. Rent increases require 90 days of written notice and happen at most once in 12 months. Consider the law summaries here general information, not legal advice, and ask the park or county when a rule seems unclear.

Garibaldi Questions

Do harbor RV parks compete with my sale?

They serve different buyers. RV parks serve travelers and seasonal stays. A manufactured home in Biak Village serves someone who wants to live in Garibaldi year-round. Price and market for the resident, not the tourist.

What should my photos show?

The home first, the lot second, and the town third. A harbor photo is nice, but buyers decide on the kitchen, the bathroom, and the monthly cost.

What if Biak Village will not confirm rent?

Write "no published rent found" and send buyers to the office. Keep asking for a written figure, since it is the single most useful fact in your listing.

Garibaldi Selling Notes

Garibaldi sellers should lead with precision about names and places. Biak Village Mobile Home Park appears in directories under more than one name and address form, so confirm the park's current name, address, and office spelling before you publish, and use the office-confirmed version in every ad. The two RV parks named here, Port of Garibaldi RV Park and Harborview Inn and RV Park, are RV parks, and keeping that label clean protects you from a buyer who expected a manufactured-home community. No published rent was found for Biak Village in the sources checked, so a written rent figure is the most valuable addition you can make to the listing. Photograph the home in daylight, disclose defects in writing, and wait for park approval before closing.
