Hines, Oregon Mobile Home Seller Guide

Welcome to Hines

Hines is a small city in Harney County, beside Burns in Oregon's high desert. The 2020 Census counted 1,645 people in Hines. Homes here sell to local workers, retirees, and buyers who want wide-open country at a lower price than the valley.

Go On MLS covers Hines sellers with the same flat-fee tiers used statewide. The sale is for the home, not the land, when the home sits in a park or on leased ground. Keep that fact in every conversation with buyers.

The Park in Hines

Hines RV and Mobile Home Park is listed at 1301 Highway 20 S in Hines. Its own description mentions short-term and long-term RV spaces plus mobile and tiny home spaces. That mix means a seller should confirm with the office whether a particular space is a long-term manufactured-home space or a short-stay RV space, since the two are different deals.

No published lot rent was found for this park in the sources checked for this page. Ask the office for the current rent, the lease terms, and the buyer-application packet, and share the written answers with buyers.

Cathi's Place RV Park, at 404 US-20 in Hines, is another local RV park. It is named here as an RV park only. If your home is in a park not named on this page, the Oregon steps below still apply.

Questions Hines Sellers Ask

Does my home qualify if the park also takes RVs?

Yes, if your home is a manufactured home on a rented space. The park's RV business does not change your home's status. What matters is the space agreement and the park's buyer-approval process.

What does the buyer pay each month?

The home payment, if financed, plus the lot rent. The lot rent figure comes from the park office. A financing estimate is available on the Oregon financing page.

How do I list?

Pick a tier on the pricing page, send photos, and the listing goes to the MLS. At the $99 tier you handle showings; at $1,999, coordination help is added.

Your Hines Checklist

• Confirm your space type with the park office: long-term home space or short-stay RV space.
• Get the buyer application packet before listing, not after an offer.
• Find the DCBS ownership document and check it against the seller names.
• Clear any tax or park balance that could block the transfer.
• Take daylight photos of the rooms, the exterior, and the space.
• Set your asking price with the lot rent in mind.
• Put offers in writing and wait for park approval before closing.

Pricing in Hines

The $99 tier is the MLS listing with up to 20 photos, syndicated through MyStateMLS to 135+ listing sites including Google. The $1,999 tier adds purchase-agreement help, DocuSign, and escrow coordination to that listing.

The $6,999 full-service tier is limited to Portland metro area, and it is not available in Hines. That tier's signs, flyers, lockbox, buyer qualifying, and showings are offered only inside the Portland metro area. Hines sellers use the $99 or $1,999 tier.

The Oregon Transfer Steps

Park homes transfer as personal property. DCBS issues and moves the ownership document, and the fee for the transfer is $55. There is no deed, because the buyer does not buy the land.

The county certifies taxes are paid on Form 2952, and DCBS needs that certification before finishing the transfer. Handle taxes first, so the closing date holds.

Under ORS 90.680, the buyer applies to the park in writing. A complete application starts a 7-day decision clock, or a 10-day clock when the seller skipped the 10-day pre-sale notice. Parks must also give 90 days of written notice before a rent increase, and may raise rent only once per 12 months. These law notes are general information, not legal advice.
