Mobile home buyers near Louisville — home and land together.
We Buy Doublewides is Roger Choate’s local direct-buying business. Roger evaluates singlewides, doublewides, and older mobile homes across 11 Kentucky counties near Louisville when the seller owns the land and sells the home and land together. Depending on the records, the home may still have an active title or may have been converted to real estate.
One rule decides whether we can buy.
You have to own the land the home sits on. We evaluate the manufactured home and land as one coordinated purchase. Land ownership does not automatically convert a titled home to real estate, so the closing company first confirms whether the home still has an active title or a recorded conversion.
If the home sits in a park or on a lot you rent, we are not your buyer, and we would rather tell you that here than after you have spent a week waiting on a call back. You still have options — here is what they are.
We buy
- Doublewides, singlewides, and manufactured homes on land you own
- Homes on acreage and rural lots
- Any condition — roof, floors, water damage, gutted, vacant
- Inherited and probate homes, divorce, foreclosure, back taxes, liens
- Properties with title questions, subject to lawful resolution before closing
We don't buy
- Homes in mobile home parks
- Homes on rented or leased ground
- The home by itself, without the land
- Homes that would have to be moved off the property

About these numbers. There are roughly 18,427 manufactured and mobile homes across the 11 Kentucky counties we buy in. Counts are mobile-home housing units from the U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2023 5-Year Estimates, Table B25024 “Units in Structure,” shown with the Census margin of error. They count all manufactured homes, including homes in parks and on rented lots, which we do not buy — so treat them as a picture of how common these homes are locally, not as a count of homes we would purchase.
Don’t see your county? Our core area is roughly 50 miles from Jeffersonville, Indiana. If you own the land but are outside that core, ask Roger whether the property is a practical fit. Across the river, see the full Southern Indiana and Kentucky service area.
Kentucky titles go through the county clerk.
In Kentucky, an active manufactured-home title is handled through the county clerk, and state form TC 96-182 is used for title applications and transfers. Conversion to real estate requires a recorded affidavit and surrender of the certificate of title under KRS 186A.297; it does not happen merely because you own the land.
If the title is lost, names do not match, an owner has died, or the conversion record is unclear, the clerk, title company, or attorney must identify the correct path. Read the current Kentucky title guide or what a missing title means for a potential sale.
What happens when you reach out
You tell Roger where the property is, confirm that you own the land, and share what you know about the home and records. If it fits, he visits the property and then provides a clear written offer. We Buy Doublewides charges no company fee or sales commission; valid mortgages, liens, taxes, and other payoffs can still reduce the seller’s net. The closing timeline follows the record and title-company review.
