Selling a Manufactured Home in Gresham, Oregon

B. Intro: Selling a Park Home in Gresham — The Short Version

Gresham is Oregon's fourth-largest city, on the east side of the Portland metro. It has a long stretch of manufactured-home parks along SE Palmquist Road, Division Street, and Powell Boulevard — a mix of all-ages communities and 55+ senior communities.

If you own a manufactured home in one of these parks, you own the home and rent the lot under it. When it's time to sell, the home usually stays on its space and your buyer applies to the park.

GoOnMLS lists mobile and manufactured homes in Oregon parks and on leased land only — never land sales. A GoOnMLS listing starts at $99 and puts your home on the MLS, which feeds major home-search sites.

This guide covers Gresham's parks, real rents, real asking prices (from October 2026 listings), your rights under Oregon law, and the exact steps to sell. Every number below comes from a named source, with the date it was checked. Where we don't have a number, we say so — we don't guess.

Plain-language promise: This guide is written for sellers, not salespeople. Short sentences. No jargon. If something is an estimate, we label it an estimate.

Licensing note: GoOnMLS operates under the required dealer licensing (details will be updated upon final approval). The site's licensing information is currently being finalized.

C. Gresham at a Glance

Gresham sits at the east end of the Portland metro, along I-84. It is the metro's most affordable large city — and the anchor for the east-side park-home market.

Key facts (checked 2026-10-16):

• Population: 112,378 (ACS 2020–2024 5-year estimate) — Oregon Hometown Locator, citing the Census Bureau. A City of Gresham planning document cites about 115,000 residents.
• Median household income: $77,795 — Data USA, ACS 2024 1-year estimates (matches Census QuickFacts).
• Homeownership rate: 55.8% — Data USA, 2024. Poverty rate: 13.0% — Census QuickFacts.
• Median gross rent: $1,586/month — Census QuickFacts, ACS 2020–2024 5-year.
• Median home value (all homes): $458,700 — Census QuickFacts.
• Market apartment rents (Gresham): 1-bedroom averages $1,430/month; studio $1,277; 2-bedroom $1,623 — ApartmentList, Oct 2026.
• Getting around: MAX Blue Line runs through Gresham to downtown Portland — a selling point for park-home buyers who commute.

What this means for park-home sellers: Gresham is the affordable end of the Portland metro. Your buyer is comparing your home's asking price plus the monthly lot rent against a $1,277–$1,430 apartment. The lot rent number matters as much as the home price — Gresham's lot-rent snapshots run $750–$1,215/month, so the math only works for buyers if the home price reflects the rent.

D. Mobile-Home Parks in Gresham

Below are the parks we could verify in Gresham, grouped by corridor. Rents shown are published rents from October 2026 listings or listing flyers — most parks don't post rents publicly. Space counts are shown only where a source stated them; several figures below are unverified research leads, flagged as such.

SE Palmquist Road corridor

• Palmquist Terrace Mobile Home Park (marketed in current listings as "Hogan Meadows" / "Hogan Meadows Mfg Community") — 1949 SE Palmquist Rd, Gresham 97080. One of the largest Gresham parks — prior research put it at about 146 spaces, but that figure is not independently verified in this pass; verify with the park or the OHCS park directory before quoting. Note: the relationship between the names "Palmquist Terrace" and "Hogan Meadows" is unverified — apartments.com lists "Palmquist Terrace Mobile Home Park" at this address, while current for-sale listings say "Hogan Meadows." Listings describe a park-like community a short walk from Gradin Community Sports Park. Space rent: $1,215/month, includes sewer (Oregon First listing for Unit 4, seen Oct 2026) — the highest lot-rent snapshot we found in the entire Portland-metro pilot. Age restriction not confirmed — treat as unverified.
• Asking prices in this park (Oct 2026): Unit 4 at $160,000 (3/2, 1,848 sf, newer roof, after a $5,000 price drop); Unit 51 at $114,999 (2/2, 1,056 sf, after a $10,000 price drop); Unit 91 at $139,900 (3/2, 1,848 sf); Unit 121 at $148,000 (3/2, 1,752 sf). (Earlier snapshots: Unit 33 at $165,000, Unit 32 at $120,000 — Unit 32 later sold per prior research; Unit 42, a renovated 5-bed/3-bath at $199,999, also later sold — sale prices unknown.)

Division Street / Stark Street (55+ senior corridor)

• Bell Acres — 2980 NE Division St, Gresham 97030 — 55+. A dealer (J&M Homes) places new manufactured homes on vacant spaces here and helps with financing — so listings at this address are often new-home packages with factory warranties, not resale comps. Space rent: $850/month, includes garbage (J&M Homes listing, homes.com, crawled ~Mar 2026); an earlier snapshot showed $815/month (crawled ~Jan 2026). Resale asking: $90,000 (Unit 31, 3/2, 1,248 sf, remodeled kitchen; Keller Williams, seen ~Mar 2026). New-home asking: $132,900 (Unit 13, 2/1, 852 sf, after a $13,000 price increase); $133,900 (Unit 15, 2/2, 1,056 sf).
• Suburban Mobile Estates ("Suburban Estates") — 21016 SE Stark St, Gresham 97030 — 55+, clubhouse and in-ground pool. Owner: Suburban Mobile Estates LLC (Multnomah County tax records). Prior research put it at about 72 lots — not independently verified. Space rent: $809/month, includes sewer and garbage (MLS #308153942 for Unit 71, crawled ~Mar 2026). A directory profile (mhbo.com, ~Aug 2026) showed a $475–$725 range — notably lower; one of these figures is stale. Verify with the park before quoting either. Resale asking: $129,900 (Unit 69, 2/2, 1,368 sf, remodeled kitchen, after a $10,000 price drop; RE/MAX); $69,900 (Unit 71, 2/2, 940 sf, 1971, same listing with the $809 rent).

900 NE Francis Ave (55+)

• Green Tee Estates (also listed as "Green Tee Living Estates") — 900 NE Francis Ave, Gresham 97030 — 55+. Across from the Gresham golf course. Amenities per listings: community pool, clubhouse (seats ~30), RV storage. Owners describe "no vacancy" and minimal turnover. No published lot rent found — ask the park office or check a current rent notice. Asking: $164,900 (Unit 63, 3/2, 1,848 sf, vaulted ceilings, after a $15,000 price drop; Keller Williams); $99,950 (Unit #79, 2/1, 840 sf, 1974; Redfin, listing updated Oct 12, 2026 — the freshest Gresham data point); $140,000 (3/2, 1,200 sf; John L. Scott, ~Nov 2025).

Portland/Gresham edge

• Mobile Park Plaza — 19776 SE Stark St (Portland/Gresham line; owner Mobile Park Plaza Inc per Multnomah County tax records). Space rent: $750/month, includes water, sewer, and trash (helpinghandequity.com listing, updated Oct 2026).

What we don't know: Space counts are unverified for every Gresham park. Green Tee Estates publishes no lot rent we could find. Most age restrictions beyond the 55+ parks above are unconfirmed. And the Palmquist Terrace / "Hogan Meadows" naming needs to be resolved before it's quoted on the live page. If your park isn't listed here — or a number above looks wrong — the surest source is the park office or a current resident's rent notice. Space counts matter: Oregon's rent-increase cap works differently for parks above and below 30 spaces (see Section F). Gresham's development code (§3.0219) formally defines a "Manufactured Dwelling Park" as 4 or more manufactured dwellings on one parcel under the same ownership, with space rented for a fee (greshamoregon.gov).

E. What Lot Rent Costs Right Now

Lot rent (also called space rent) is the monthly payment for the ground your home sits on. Based on published October 2026 figures:

• Observed range: $750–$1,215/month (excluding the unverified $475–$725 directory range for Suburban Estates, which conflicts with a published listing figure).
• Bell Acres (55+): $850 includes garbage. Suburban Estates (55+): $809 includes sewer and garbage. Mobile Park Plaza: $750 includes water, sewer, and trash. Palmquist Terrace / Hogan Meadows: $1,215 includes sewer — by far the highest snapshot in our research.
• What's included varies. Some rents cover water and sewer; others cover only garbage. Get the written breakdown from the park office.

Additional costs buyers (and sellers) should account for:

• Utilities: Electricity is usually separate (PGE in Gresham). Check whether water is sub-metered.
• No statewide real-estate transfer tax in Oregon. On the state side, the transaction cost is the $55 DCBS ownership-document fee plus a county tax-certification fee (Multnomah County's current certification fee was not yet looked up — verify before quoting a total).
• Rent can only go up once in any 12-month period, with 90 days' written notice (ORS 90.600) — see Section F.

The high-rent warning: At $1,215/month, lot rent alone is 85% of a Gresham 1-bedroom apartment ($1,430, ApartmentList Oct 2026). Homes in high-rent parks have to be priced lower — the buyer is doing that math. Unit 4's $160,000 asking (down from $165,000) on a 1,848-sf home shows exactly that pressure.

F. Rent History and Your Rights Under Oregon Law

This section summarizes Oregon statutes as reported by our research. It is not legal advice. Laws change — check current statute text or talk to a lawyer before acting.

What rents have done recently

There is no park-by-park rent history dataset for Gresham. The closest datapoint we found: Bell Acres listings quoted $815/month (~Jan 2026) and $850/month (~Mar 2026) — a roughly 4% move in about two months, from two listing snapshots, not a trend. The Suburban Estates $475–$725 directory range vs. $809 listing figure is a reminder that published numbers change and go stale.

For Oregon-wide context (not Gresham facts): a tenant survey (~500 tenants, 2025) found average annual increases of nearly 7% (Oregon State Tenants Association, via Feb 2025 Statesman Journal coverage); a park-owner industry survey (100 owners) found 5.39% per year over 2019–2024 (Manufactured Housing Communities of Oregon); one unnamed Oregon park saw increases of 8.9% (2022), 10.3% (2023), 8.7% (2024), and 9% scheduled for 2025 (tenant testimony reported by the Statesman Journal, Feb 2025).

Oregon's current rent-increase caps (HB 3054, 2025)

Oregon now has two tracks for manufactured-dwelling parks, per HB 3054, applying to increases taking effect in 2026 and 2027:

• Parks with MORE than 30 spaces: 6% maximum annual increase. Every Gresham park listed in Section D is well over 30 spaces — but space counts are unverified, so verify each park's actual count before asserting this.
• Parks with 30 or fewer spaces: 7% + CPI, capped at 10%. That's 9.5% for 2026 and 10% for 2027. The Oregon Department of Administrative Services publishes the number each year by September 30.

Sources: Oregon Dept. of Administrative Services announcements (2025-09-30, corrected; 2026-09-28); Statesman Journal (2026-09-28).

Exemptions from the cap: the cap does not apply where the first certificate of occupancy was issued less than 15 years before the notice, or for regulated/certified affordable housing where rent is income-based — ORS 90.600(3)(a)–(b).

Infrastructure exception (parks over 30 spaces only): a one-time increase of up to 12%, allowed at most once every 5 years, and only with: a documented project with cost estimate and timeline given to tenants in writing at least 30 days before the vote; a tenant meeting at least 14 days before the vote; approval by 51% of occupied spaces (signed, space-identified ballots); and a full refund (minus the normal cap) if the project isn't substantially complete within 12 months of the estimated completion date — ORS 90.600(3)(c).

Notice and process (ORS 90.600)

• 90 days' written notice before any rent increase; increases allowed at most once in any 12-month period. The notice must state the increase amount, the new rent, facts supporting any exemption claim, and the effective date.
• Penalty for violations: the landlord is liable for 3 months' rent plus actual damages — ORS 90.600(4).
• Tenants may form a tenants' committee of up to 7 members; on written request the landlord must meet with the committee (1–2 times per calendar year) and respond in good faith in writing within 60 days — ORS 90.600(8).

Your right to sell (ORS 90.680)

Key protections when you sell your park home:

• A park may not deny you the right to sell your home on its rented space, and may not require you to remove the home solely because of the sale — ORS 90.680(2).
• If your rental agreement requires it, give the park written notice up to 10 days before the sale — ORS 90.680(8)(a).
• Buyer approval: the buyer submits a complete written application; the park must accept or reject within 7 days (10 days if you didn't give the 10-day notice). Screening criteria must be substantially similar to what the park applies to buyers of its own homes. The park may not reject unreasonably and must give written reasons (except for consumer-report rejections, where the report contents stay private) — ORS 90.680(10).
• The park may not reject a buyer or force removal because of the home's age, size, style, materials, or pre-HUD-code construction — ORS 90.680(12).
• On request, the park must give the buyer its statement of policy, the rental agreement, park rules, any outstanding repair or condition notices, lists of disrepair/deterioration and rule violations, and a statement that repairs may be required — ORS 90.680(9).
• No commissions without a written consignment contract (maximum 180 days, with specific required terms) — ORS 90.680(4). A park may not require you to consign as a condition of tenancy — ORS 90.680(3).
• HB 3054 also added limits on parks conditioning a sale on cosmetic or aesthetic changes to the home or requiring interior inspections as a condition of sale. Our research notes this should be cross-checked against the enrolled bill text before being quoted — treat it as reported, not confirmed.

Park closure (ORS 90.645)

• A park must give 365 days' written notice before closing or converting, pay relocation payments to tenants (amounts are tiered — verify current figures before quoting), impose no rent increase after a closure notice, and charge no move-out penalties or unaccrued-rent charges for tenants who leave during the notice period.

G. Wages vs. Housing Costs in Gresham

Plain-language takeaway: A typical Gresham household earns about $77,800 a year. Apartments rent for about $1,277–$1,430 for a studio or 1-bedroom. Park lot rent ($750–$1,215) runs from roughly half to nearly the full cost of a 1-bedroom apartment — before the home purchase price itself. The affordability case for park homes is real, but only when the home is priced to fit the lot rent. Buyers in Gresham are doing that combined math.

H. What Park Homes Are Asking in Gresham

Important: Every price below is an asking price from a current listing — what the seller is asking, not what the home actually sold for. No market-wide median exists for used park homes in Gresham. Several listings show price drops of $5,000–$15,000, which means asking prices are often above the final sale price. We have no sold-price data — real comparable sales would require MLS sold records for the manufactured-without-land class, which we don't have. Gresham sits inside the Portland MLS (RMLS) footprint, so its park-home listings are the most visible of any city in this guide series — but "visible" still means asking prices only.

Single-wides in parks (land leased) — asking prices, Oct 2026

Double-wides in parks (land leased) — asking prices, Oct 2026 unless noted

What drives the price

• Condition over age: A renovated 1990s home at $160,000–$165,000 vs. a 1971 fixer at $69,900 — same park size, triple the price for condition and updates.
• The lot rent drag: The highest asking prices sit in parks with the highest rents ($1,215 at Hogan Meadows) — and those listings are the ones showing price drops. Buyers discount the home to offset the rent.
• New-home packages: J&M Homes' new placements at Bell Acres ($132,900–$133,900) set a ceiling reference for renovated resales — a used home asking near new-home price has to compete with a warranty.
• Price drops happen: $5,000–$15,000 cuts appear repeatedly in this sample. Asking is not selling.

Not comparable: Manufactured homes that include the land are a different market (for example, a 2022 2-bed/1-bath on its own lot at 2696 SE Palmquist Rd, asking $259,000). Don't compare those to park homes on leased land.

I. How to Sell a Park Home in Oregon, Step by Step

Selling a manufactured home in a park is different from selling a house on land. In Oregon, your park home is personal property — like a car — not real estate. Here's how the process works.

1. The home is titled through an ownership document — not a deed

Oregon no longer issues vehicle-style titles for manufactured structures. (Old pre-May-2005 DOT titles still count as proof of ownership.) Instead, ownership is shown through an ownership document issued by the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services (DCBS), Building Codes Division. For used homes, the transfer application goes through the county assessor — in Gresham that's the Multnomah County Assessor — and DCBS keeps the MHODS ownership database. The state fee is $55.

Sources: ORS 446.571; ORS 446.621; oregon.gov BCD forms page.

2. After closing, the sale must be reported within 30 days

Under ORS 446.641, within 30 days after closing the seller must give the county assessor a DCBS-approved notice of sale including: the identities of seller and buyer, the ownership document, a copy of the bill of sale, security-interest acknowledgments, and proof that all property taxes and special assessments are paid (county tax certification). The assessor forwards it to DCBS, which updates the ownership record. If the seller doesn't file, the buyer may file the notice — but the seller still faces a civil penalty.

3. The park must approve your buyer

This is the step that surprises most sellers. Under ORS 90.680 (see Section F):

• Give the park written notice up to 10 days before the sale if your rental agreement requires it.
• Your buyer submits a complete written application to the park.
• The park must accept or reject within 7 days (10 days if you didn't give the 10-day notice).
• The park's screening must be substantially similar to what it applies to buyers of its own homes — no unreasonable rejection, and written reasons are required.
• The park cannot reject because of the home's age, size, style, materials, or pre-HUD-code construction.

Tip: Talk to your park office early. Ask for the buyer-application packet and the park's statement of policy before you list, so there are no surprises after you find a buyer.

4. Disclosures

Oregon's standard statutory seller-disclosure form (ORS 105.464) applies to a manufactured dwelling only when the seller also owns the land (ORS 105.465). A park-home sale — home owned, land leased — is outside the statutory form. That doesn't mean silence: general fraud and misrepresentation law still applies, pre-1978 homes need the federal lead-paint disclosure, and the park must give your buyer its policy, rental agreement, rules, and repair/condition lists under ORS 90.680(9).

5. Watch out for the dealer-license trap

Oregon law says acting as an agent to sell someone else's manufactured structure without a manufactured-structure dealer license is a Class A misdemeanor (ORS 446.671). The private-owner exception (ORS 446.676) covers only owners selling their own home for personal, family, or household use. A regular real-estate license alone doesn't cover it either — the exception for real-estate licensees applies only to homes that are real property (deed-recorded), not park homes. The industry association's guidance puts it plainly: "If a manufactured structure is sold separate from the sale of the land, this is considered a personal property transaction and requires an MSD [manufactured structure dealer] license." (MHCO, "Dealer's License — What You Need to Know.")

What this means for you: make sure whoever lists your park home is properly licensed for this exact kind of sale. GoOnMLS operates under the required dealer licensing (details will be updated upon final approval). Ask any agent or service you consider the same question — and get the answer in writing.

J. GoOnMLS Options and Pricing

GoOnMLS lists mobile and manufactured homes in Oregon parks and on leased land only — never land sales. You keep control of the sale; we handle the listing and the paperwork tiers you choose.

Pricing (cumulative — each tier includes everything below it)

• $99 — MLS listing. Your home listed on the MLS with 2 photos. Listings are distributed through MyStateMLS, which feeds major listing sites such as Zillow, Trulia, Homes.com and Realtor.com. We can't guarantee any specific site will show your listing — distribution depends on listing type and eligibility.
• $199 — MLS listing + media package. Everything above, plus up to 50 photos and a 3-minute video. You shoot the photos and video on your phone; we edit, post to YouTube, and link it to the MLS listing.
• $1,999 — MLS listing + media + transaction coordination. Everything above, plus help with the purchase agreement, DocuSign, and escrow coordination.
• $6,999 — Full service. Everything above, plus signs, flyers, lockbox, buyer qualifying, and showings — you only sign. It's $6,999 at closing, zero upfront, and the $199 media fee is waived. This tier is available throughout the Portland metro, including Gresham.

Licensing note: Our license status is currently being finalized — the site shows a placeholder. GoOnMLS operates under the required dealer licensing (details will be updated upon final approval). We will never assert a license number until it's confirmed.

Honest limits

• We can't guarantee your home will sell, how fast, or at what price.
• We can't guarantee your listing appears on any specific website. Distribution goes through MyStateMLS and depends on the listing type and eligibility rules.
• Commission comparisons elsewhere on this page are for illustration only — actual fees are negotiable and vary.

K. DIY Flat Fee vs. a Traditional Agent

There's no single right way to sell. Here's a neutral comparison.

Flat-fee MLS listing (GoOnMLS, starting at $99):

• You pay a fixed fee. No percentage of the sale price.
• Your home appears on the MLS, which feeds major home-search sites (subject to listing type and eligibility — see Section J).
• You handle inquiries, showings, and negotiations yourself (unless you choose a higher tier).
• Best fit: sellers comfortable with a phone and a little paperwork, or sellers whose home is priced to move.

Traditional full-service agent:

• The agent handles photos, showings, negotiations, and paperwork.
• The listing commission is a percentage of the sale price — negotiable, and it varies. For illustration only: a 2.5–3% listing commission on a $150,000 home would be $3,750–$4,500. Your actual fee may be higher or lower — commissions are negotiable and vary by agent and market.
• Best fit: sellers who want someone else to run the whole process.

Neither choice is "better" in the abstract. A traditional agent earns their fee when the service saves you time or gets you a better outcome; a flat fee makes sense when you'd rather keep the difference and do the legwork. Pick the one that fits your situation.

One caution that applies to both: whoever sells your park home needs the right license for manufactured structures sold without land (see the dealer-license note in Section I). Ask, and get the answer in writing.

L. Your Selling Checklist

1. Find your ownership document. Locate your DCBS ownership document (or old pre-2005 title). If it's lost, contact DCBS Building Codes Division about a replacement before you list.
2. Check your property taxes. Make sure all property taxes and special assessments on the home are paid — you'll need Multnomah County tax certification at closing.
3. Talk to your park office. Ask for the buyer-application packet, the statement of policy, the rental agreement, and the park rules. Ask what the current space rent is and whether an increase is scheduled. (Get it in writing — published rents in Gresham ran $750–$1,215 in our Oct 2026 snapshots, and they change.)
4. Price the home. Look at asking prices for similar homes in your park and nearby parks (Section H). Remember: asking is not selling — several Gresham listings dropped $5,000–$15,000. Factor in your park's lot rent; buyers do.
5. Get the home ready. Clean thoroughly. Fix what's broken. For older homes, small repairs (skirting, steps, paint) pay back more than big remodels.
6. Photograph and list. Good daylight photos of every room, the exterior, and the park. List on the MLS through GoOnMLS (from $99) or your chosen service.
7. Show the home. Be available. Keep it clean and lit for every showing.
8. Get offers in writing. Use a written purchase agreement. Decide in advance your lowest acceptable price.
9. Buyer applies to the park. Your buyer submits the park application; the park has 7 days to decide (10 if you skipped the 10-day seller notice). Don't count the sale as done until the park approves.
10. Close and report. Sign the bill of sale. Within 30 days after closing, file the DCBS-approved notice of sale with the county assessor, with proof taxes are paid.

N. Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to sell my mobile home in a Gresham park with GoOnMLS?

A basic MLS listing is $99 (2 photos). $199 adds a media package (up to 50 photos + a 3-minute video — you shoot, we edit). $1,999 adds transaction coordination (purchase-agreement help, DocuSign, escrow). The $6,999 full-service tier (signs, flyers, lockbox, showings; you only sign; $6,999 at closing, zero upfront, $199 media fee waived) is available throughout the Portland metro, including Gresham. See Section J for details.

Will my listing appear on Zillow?

Listings are distributed through MyStateMLS, which feeds major listing sites such as Zillow, Trulia, Homes.com and Realtor.com. We can't guarantee your home will appear on any specific site — it depends on listing type and eligibility.

Do I own the land under my mobile home?

In most Gresham parks, no — you own the home and rent the lot (space rent, $750–$1,215/month in our Oct 2026 snapshots). Your home is personal property, titled through an ownership document — not a deed. (See Section I.)

Can my park stop me from selling?

No. Under ORS 90.680, a park may not deny your right to sell the home on its rented space, and may not require removal just because of the sale. The park does get to approve your buyer through its normal application process (7-day decision). (See Section F.)

Can the park reject my buyer because my home is old?

No. ORS 90.680(12) bars the park from rejecting a buyer or forcing removal because of the home's age, size, style, materials, or pre-HUD-code construction.

How much can my park raise the lot rent?

For parks with more than 30 spaces, HB 3054 caps annual increases at 6% for increases taking effect in 2026 and 2027. For parks with 30 or fewer spaces, the cap is 7% + CPI, capped at 10% (9.5% for 2026, 10% for 2027). Exemptions exist (see Section F). Every Gresham park we've identified is well over 30 spaces — but space counts are unverified, so confirm with your park.

What are park homes actually selling for in Gresham?

We only have asking prices, not sold prices. In October 2026 listings: single-wides asked $69,900–$132,900; double-wides asked $90,000–$199,999. Renovated doubles asked roughly $120,000–$165,000; a 1971 fixer asked $69,900. Several listings cut prices $5,000–$15,000. (See Section H.)

How high can Gresham lot rents go?

The highest published snapshot we found is $1,215/month at Palmquist Terrace / Hogan Meadows — the highest in our entire Portland-metro research. At that rent, the home has to be priced lower: a 1,848-sf home there asked $160,000 (down from $165,000). If your park's rent is at the top of the range, price the home to match.

Do I need a real-estate agent to sell my park home?

No — but whoever handles the sale needs the right license. Selling someone else's manufactured structure without a manufactured-structure dealer license is a Class A misdemeanor in Oregon (ORS 446.671), and a standard real-estate license alone doesn't cover park homes. Ask any service or agent for their licensing in writing. (See Section I.)

What paperwork is due after the sale?

Within 30 days after closing, the seller must file a DCBS-approved notice of sale with the Multnomah County Assessor, including the bill of sale and proof all property taxes are paid (ORS 446.641).

I'm not good with computers. Can I still use GoOnMLS?

Yes. The $99 listing needs only a phone call and a couple of photos. For the $199 media package, you shoot photos/video on your phone and we handle the editing and posting. Call (971) 466-6657 and we'll walk you through it.

O. Conclusion: What to Do Next

Selling a manufactured home in a Gresham park is a personal-property sale with a park-approval step — not a regular house sale. Know your park's rent and rules (Gresham rents run $750–$1,215, and buyers are doing that math against $1,277–$1,430 apartments), price against real asking prices (and remember asking isn't selling — $5,000–$15,000 drops are common in this market), and make sure whoever lists your home is licensed for exactly this kind of sale.

If a flat-fee MLS listing fits your plans, explore GoOnMLS.com's services — starting at $99 — or call (971) 466-6657 to talk it through with a real person. No pressure, no jargon.

• Methodology: All park rents are published rents from listings/flyers (parks rarely publish rents). All home prices are asking prices, not sold prices — no market-wide median exists for used park homes. Space counts shown only where a source stated them, and Gresham counts are flagged as unverified research leads. J&M Homes "new home" listings at Bell Acres are dealer placements with factory warranties — not resale comps.

Known data gaps (disclosed, not papered over): (1) Space counts unverified for every Gresham park — the 6% rent-cap track hinges on the 30-space threshold (all identified parks appear well over it). (2) No sold-price data — everything is asking price. (3) Palmquist Terrace vs. "Hogan Meadows" naming unresolved. (4) Suburban Estates lot-rent conflict ($475–$725 directory range vs. $809 listing figure) — needs park verification. (5) Green Tee Estates lot rent unpublished. (6) No Gresham park-by-park longitudinal rent series. (7) HB 3054's cosmetic-change/interior-inspection sale provisions should be cross-checked against the enrolled bill before quoting as confirmed. (8) Multnomah County tax-certification fee not yet looked up. (9) Age restriction unconfirmed for Palmquist Terrace / Hogan Meadows. (10) Bell Acres $815→$850 is two snapshots, not a trend.
