Oregon's $99 Flat Fee MLS Listing Service for Manufactured & Mobile Homes (971) 466-6657

Selling a Manufactured Home in Springfield, Oregon


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

Springfield sits just east of Eugene, across the Willamette River. It's Lane County's second-largest city, and thousands of its residents live in manufactured homes — also called mobile homes — inside leased-land parks. You own the home. You rent the lot under it.

When it's time to sell, you have options. You can list it yourself, hire a traditional agent, or use a flat-fee service like GoOnMLS. A GoOnMLS listing starts at $99 and puts your home on the MLS, which feeds major home-search sites.

This guide covers the Springfield park-home market: real parks, real rents, real asking prices (from 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.

GoOnMLS scope: GoOnMLS lists mobile and manufactured homes in Oregon parks and on leased land only — never land sales.

Licensing note: GoOnMLS operates under the required dealer licensing (details will be updated upon final approval). Our license status is being finalized — the site shows a placeholder, and we will never assert a license number until it's confirmed. (See the dealer-license note in Section I.)


C. Springfield at a Glance

Springfield is the metro's eastern half of the Eugene–Springfield area — a working city of about 61,000 people in the southern Willamette Valley. Manufactured-home parks are a major housing source here: a Lane County government assessment estimated roughly 5,540 homes — about 5% of the metro housing stock — in manufactured-home parks, concentrated in West Eugene, Glenwood, and East Springfield.

Key facts about Springfield (all from Census-based sources, checked 2026-10-16):

  • Population: about 61,182 (2024) — city-data.com, citing Census estimates.
  • Median household income (Springfield city): $68,761 — American Community Survey 2024 1-year estimates, via Data USA. (The City's own 2026 housing report uses the same figure.)
  • Renter households earn less than homeowners: renter median income $51,355, homeowner median income $81,564 — City of Springfield Housing Strategy 2026.
  • Poverty rate: 14.9% overall; 18.1% among renter families — City of Springfield Housing Strategy 2026.
  • Apartment rent: average $1,610/month (July 2026) — Point2Homes, using Yardi Matrix data. The City's own figure: median rent $1,258/month (2026). Two different measures — both are labeled.
  • 46% of Springfield housing units are renter-occupied, and the rental vacancy rate is a very tight 1.6% — Point2Homes.
  • Median home value: about $373,000 (2024 estimate) — city-data.com.

What this means for park-home sellers: Springfield has a large renter population, very few empty apartments, and apartment rents ($1,258–$1,610) far above park lot rents. That keeps demand for affordable park homes steady — buyers who can't afford apartments or site-built homes often look at manufactured homes in parks. But buyers pay close attention to the monthly space rent. Price your home with the rent in mind.


D. Mobile-Home Parks in and Around Springfield

Below are parks we could identify in the Springfield area. Rents shown are published rents from listings — most parks don't post rents publicly, so this list covers only what was actually published. Park sizes (space counts) are shown only where a source stated them; for most parks the count is not published. There is no official Springfield park inventory — if your park isn't listed here, the surest source is the park office.

East Springfield / Hayden Bridge (97477)

  • Monta Loma Estates — 2150 Laura St, Springfield 97477 — 55+. Managed by IPG Living (541-747-8931). Clubhouse with full kitchen, fitness center, billiards room, dog park. No published lot rent found — one current listing says the space rent is "grandfathered in" and to call the agent. Asking: $33,900 (1972 2-bed/1-bath, price dropped $5K), $63,000 (1984 2-bed/2-bath, 924 sq ft), $55,000 (3-bed/2-bath Skyline, price dropped $10K).
  • Fairview Mobile Home Court — 1120 W Fairview Dr, Springfield (managed by Commonwealth Real Estate Services). No rent, age-restriction, or space-count data found.
  • SpringLane Mobile Village — 157 N 12th St, Springfield 97477 (phone 541-747-3557). Age restriction unconfirmed. No published rent found.
  • Springfield Mobile Home Park — 1263 Main St, Springfield 97477. Sources disagree on size (64 spaces vs. 80 units) — neither is authoritative. No published rent found.
  • Parklane Manufactured Home Park — 225 41st St #7, Springfield (phone 541-689-7255). No rent, age, or space-count data found.
  • Filbert Grove Cooperative — 3530 E Game Farm Rd, Springfield 97477 — 81 spaces, resident-owned. A co-op is not a for-profit park: residents collectively own the land, so a resale there works differently. Ask the co-op board about its resale rules before listing.

East Main / Southeast Springfield (97478)

  • Chalet Village — 205 S 54th St, Springfield 97478 — 55+, 121 spaces (state park dataset). Managed by IPG Living (541-747-8311). Seasonal pool, sauna, rec room with dining hall and pool tables. Space rent: $1,015/month (from a listing page about six months old — the park's own site doesn't publish rent). The listing notes all prospective buyers must be approved by the park. Asking: $59,900 (updated 2-bed/2-bath, price dropped $5K).
  • 31st St family park (park name not confirmed in listings) — 2145 31st St, Springfield 97477 — all-age/family park. Space rent: $1,179/month (stated on two current listings). Near walking paths, schools, parks, and the McKenzie River. Asking: $14,000 (2-bed/2-bath fixer, cash only, price dropped $7K), $15,000 (2-bed/1-bath fixer, price dropped $14K), $39,999 (2-bed/1-bath move-in ready, price dropped $5K).

Thurston (east Springfield)

  • 55+ community on Thurston Rd (park name not confirmed): 7080 Thurston Rd — lot rent $750/month, including water, sewer, and trash (advertised on a recently sold listing). The lowest published Springfield rent we found.

Glenwood area

  • Glenwood is one of the three manufactured-home-park concentrations in the metro (with West Eugene and East Springfield). Our Eugene guide covers Glenwood-area parks in detail — start there.
  • One thing to know about Glenwood: the City's Glenwood Refinement Plan Update (2026) plans redevelopment of the Glenwood Riverfront. Existing manufactured-home parks may continue "as preexisting nonconforming uses" until redevelopment happens — but redevelopment is the stated direction. The plan commits the city to help residents who are displaced, including possible funding for relocation expenses, and to explore building a new manufactured-home park. If you own in Glenwood, read the plan and keep your paperwork current. (Oregon law also requires any park closure to come with 365 days' written notice plus relocation payments — see Section F.)

What we don't know: Most Springfield parks don't publish their rents, their total space counts, or their buyer-approval rules. If a rent above looks wrong — or your park isn't listed — check with 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).

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 figures:

  • Observed range: $750–$1,179/month. But this range is built on just three published figures — far fewer than we'd like. Most Springfield parks publish nothing.
  • $750/month — Thurston-area 55+ community, including water, sewer, and trash (from a recently sold listing).
  • $1,015/month — Chalet Village 55+ (from a listing page about six months old; park site doesn't publish rent).
  • $1,179/month — 31st St all-age park (two current listings).
  • Monta Loma — rent unpublished; one listing says it's "grandfathered in" and tells buyers to call the agent.

Additional costs buyers (and sellers) should account for:

  • Utilities: Some parks include water, sewer, and trash in the rent (the Thurston listing does). Others bill separately — check the specific park's rules.
  • No statewide real-estate transfer tax in Oregon. On the state side, the transaction cost is the $55 DCBS ownership-document fee plus the Lane County tax certification (Lane County publishes its request process — [email protected] or 541-682-4321 — but no fee amount; confirm with the office 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.

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 Springfield-specific rent history dataset — no park-by-park series exists. What we have are county comparisons and statewide surveys:

  • Across the river (Eugene): at Lakewood Vista, rents reportedly roughly doubled after a 2021 corporate purchase, and residents are trying to buy the park themselves as a co-op — Register-Guard, 2026-04-29 (see our Eugene guide).
  • Statewide surveys (for context, not Springfield): a park-owner industry survey of 100 owners reported average increases of 5.39% per year from 2019–2024; a tenant survey of ~500 tenants reported nearly 7% per year. A Salem-area park reported 8.9% (2022), 10.3% (2023), 8.7% (2024), and 9% scheduled for 2025. (Salem Statesman Journal, 2025-02-11, via oregontenants.com.)
  • Glenwood history (dated): in 2007, the seniors-only Patrician Mobile Homes park in Glenwood faced a potential conversion to a hotel/conference center — a warning sign about what redevelopment pressure can mean for park residents. That's a 2007 story, but it's part of why the City's 2026 Glenwood plan includes relocation-assistance language.

Plain takeaway: Springfield has no published rent series, so assume your park's history is what the park office and your neighbors tell you. HB 3054 now caps increases statewide — see below.

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. Chalet Village (121 spaces) is clearly on this track; Filbert Grove's co-op structure may affect which rules apply — ask the co-op board. For other Springfield parks, verify the actual space count before asserting it.
  • Parks with 30 or fewer spaces: 7% + CPI, capped at 10%. That's 9.5% for 2026 and 10% for 2027 (the CPI piece is about 3.12%). Oregon's 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); Boiler Bay Beacon (2026-09-29).

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. This matters in Springfield: the Glenwood riverfront is officially slated for redevelopment.

Plain-language takeaway: Springfield renters earn roughly $44,000–$51,000 and face $1,258–$1,610/month apartment rents. Observed park lot rents ($750–$1,179) run roughly half to two-thirds of apartment rent — that's the affordability pitch for park homes. But the buyer still has to purchase the home itself, and Springfield lot rents are published so rarely that buyers should verify each park's current figure directly.


H. What Park Homes Are Selling For

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 Springfield. Most Springfield listings in our sample had already dropped their asking price by $4,000–$14,000, 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.

Single-wides and smaller homes in parks (land leased) — asking prices, 2026

What drives the price

  • Age and condition: 1970s–80s fixers at $14,000–$39,999 → updated 1980s–90s homes at $55,000–$63,000 → an updated ~1,344-sq-ft double-wide at $126,500. The cheapest Springfield listings are explicit fixers ("cash only," "roll up your sleeves"); turnkey homes in the same market ask 3–4 times more.
  • The park: the 55+ amenity parks (Chalet Village, Monta Loma) hold the top of the range; all-age parks run lower.
  • Price drops happen: most listings in the sample had already cut $4,000–$14,000. Asking is not selling.

Not comparable: Manufactured homes that include the land are a different market (for example, $450,000 for a manufactured home on 2.01 acres off Hill Rd in October 2026). Don't compare those to park homes on leased land. And Filbert Grove is a resident-owned co-op — its economics differ from leased-land parks.

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 Lane 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; Lane County Assessment & Taxation.

2. Lane County: pay your taxes and get a tax certification first

Lane County's rule: "Taxes must be paid and a Tax Certification obtained before an ownership transfer can be completed." Request the Tax Certificate from Lane County Assessment & Taxation — by email at [email protected], by phone at 541-682-4321, or in person at 125 E 8th Ave, Eugene. (No fee amount was published — confirm with the office.)

Important: Lane County generally updates its tax records only after the state transfer completes — until then, the county still shows you as the owner and as responsible for the taxes. Simply signing a title or sales agreement does not transfer ownership.

Source: lanecountyor.gov Manufactured Structure Information (checked 2026-10-16).

3. 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 (the Lane 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.

4. 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.

5. 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).

6. 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 (ORS 446.676). 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. 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. This tier is available in the Portland metro only — not in Springfield. It's $6,999 at closing, zero upfront, and the $199 media fee is waived.

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 $100,000 home would be $2,500–$3,000. 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 the Lane County tax certification at closing (email [email protected] or call 541-682-4321).
  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.
  4. Price the home. Look at asking prices for similar homes in your park and nearby parks (Section H). Remember: asking is not selling — most Springfield listings in our sample dropped $4,000–$14,000. 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 Lane County assessor, with proof taxes are paid.

N. Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to sell my mobile home in a Springfield 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). Full service at $6,999 is not available in Springfield — it's Portland metro only. See Section J for details.

Will my listing appear on Zillow?

Listings are distributed through MyStateMLS, which feeds major listing sites. 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 Springfield-area parks, no — you own the home and rent the lot (space rent, from the few published figures: $750–$1,179/month). The exception is resident-owned co-ops like Filbert Grove in Springfield, where residents collectively own the land — its resale rules are different, so ask the co-op board. 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). Chalet Village, for example, states that all prospective buyers must be approved by the park. (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). Chalet Village (121 spaces) is clearly on the 6% track; Filbert Grove's co-op structure may affect which rules apply — ask the co-op board. For other Springfield parks, the actual space count decides, so verify.

What are park homes actually selling for in Springfield?

We only have asking prices, not sold prices. In 2026 listings: fixers asked $14,000–$39,999; updated older homes asked $55,000–$63,000; an updated double-wide asked $126,500. Most listings had already dropped $4,000–$14,000. (See Section H.)

I live in Glenwood. Should I worry about the riverfront redevelopment?

Not today — but stay informed. The City's 2026 Glenwood Refinement Plan Update says existing parks may continue "as preexisting nonconforming uses" until redevelopment, and commits the city to help displaced residents, including possible relocation-expense funding and exploring a new manufactured-home park. Under Oregon law (ORS 90.645), any park closure requires 365 days' written notice plus relocation payments — nobody can close a park overnight. (See Section D.)

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?

Pay your property taxes and get the Lane County tax certification before the transfer. Within 30 days after closing, the seller must file a DCBS-approved notice of sale with the 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 Springfield park is a personal-property sale with a park-approval step — not a regular house sale. Know your park's rent and rules, price against real asking prices (and remember asking isn't selling), 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 (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. Eugene-area parks are covered in the companion Eugene guide rather than duplicated here.

Known data gaps (disclosed, not papered over): (1) No official Springfield park inventory — directory counts disagree and misassign cities (a spam site mislabels the Wilsonville Thunderbird park as Springfield; omitted). (2) Only three published lot rents found, one ~6 months old, one from a sold listing — the $750–$1,179 range is thin. (3) No sold-price data — everything is asking price. (4) Space counts unknown for most parks — the 6%-vs-10% rent-cap track hinges on the 30-space threshold. (5) Age restrictions and buyer-approval rules unconfirmed for most parks beyond Chalet Village. (6) Springfield Mobile Home Park's space count conflicts between sources (64 vs. 80) — count omitted. (7) Lane County tax-certification fee not published. (8) HB 3054's cosmetic-change/interior-inspection sale provisions need cross-check against the enrolled bill before quoting as confirmed. (9) Glenwood-area parks covered in the Eugene guide; Springfield-side readers are pointed there.
