In general, you don't. Different kinds of property. You can't even do a 1031 exchange, if I understand the rules right, as a mobile home is personal property, not real property. Not that section 1031 applies to losses. A loss on personal property is a loss, and it's gone forever, like when you sold the car you bought for $10,000 for $300 to the junkyard.

Nope. Doesn't work that way, not like rolling negative equity from one car into another...

I'd suggest finding a renter to cover the payment on the mobile home, and then qualifying for a mortgage to buy a new house.

Sorry, but it doesn't work that way with mortgages. You really only have a couple of options here.

Keep paying on it until you're right side up.

Rent it out, hopefully for something close to your mortgage payment.
