City of Martinsville / Henry County
Selling a Mobile Home in Martinsville, Virginia
Martinsville is an independent city completely surrounded by Henry County, which holds about 3,955 manufactured homes. In practice the two operate as one housing market, and most of the manufactured homes are on the county side in Collinsville, Bassett, Fieldale and Ridgeway.
What this market is actually like
This is one of the lowest-priced housing markets in Virginia. The practical consequence for a seller is that ordinary repairs (a new roof, a heat pump, floor joists) can easily exceed what the finished home would sell for locally. That is not a reason to give a home away, but it is a reason to get a realistic number before spending money on repairs you may never recover.
