Source: Momentum Research, computed from Stellar MLS records for Marion County, November 9, 2026, by mailing city. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
The Ocala mailing city had the most listings and one of the faster paces at 3.4. Silver Springs and Fort McCoy, in the eastern part of the county, had lower median asks near $122,000 to $125,000 and slower pace. Counts outside Ocala and Summerfield are small, so a few contracts can move these figures.
What happened in the last two weeks?
From October 26 to November 8, our change log recorded 49 new manufactured-home listings, at a median ask of $214,000, against 14 new contracts. Sellers made 24 price cuts, at a median of 4.11 percent, or $5,545. Site-built houses under $250,000 recorded 217 new listings, 62 new contracts and 112 cuts at a median of 2.83 percent, or $6,000. Manufactured-home sellers cut by a larger share of the price, and new listings came in well above the median of homes already for sale.
What does this mean for buyers and sellers?
For buyers, the lower price per square foot is the main draw, but the full cost of a manufactured home includes land or lot rent, insurance and financing terms that can differ from a site-built house. Check the Ocala home insurance cost page, the Marion County property tax page and Marion County HOA fees by community before comparing monthly payments.
For sellers, a two-bedroom manufactured home faced about 6 listings for every contract in this snapshot, and recent cuts ran deeper than for site-built houses. Pricing near recent closed sales of similar homes, rather than near new listings, is likely to matter more than in the three-bedroom range.

Limitations
Counts of listings for sale and in a contract are a single live map snapshot taken November 9, 2026, and a listing's status can change daily. Two-week counts come from our listing change log, which records a change when our refresh sees it; our Stellar log had gaps in mid-October, so we do not compare against earlier weeks. Property type follows the listing record, and some listings label manufactured or mobile homes differently. City is the mailing city. Prices may or may not include land, depending on the listing. Small groups, such as homes at $400,000 and above and cities outside Ocala and Summerfield, move a lot on a few listings.
