How do I start off buying a mobile home? I do own the land and it's a mobile home community. Will the mobile home loan be taken as mortgage? Do I need to pay 10% as down payment or is it lower for mobile homes? Are there specific loan options for mobile homes, we're in CT. _________________ Need help choosing the right loan?

Mobile home loan is also a kind of mortgage loan backed by the mobile home but there are certain requirements to get approved for a mobile home like the mobile home should have permanent foundation, it must be your principal residence etc. If you want to know more about it at http://www.mortgagefit.com/mobile-homeloan.html Hope it helps. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions. Best of luck, Larry

The home needs to be permanantly attached to the land to be considered real estate. Not many will do them as real estate when it is in a community park. Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer, assuming you are looking at a new home, and see what resources they have for financing. If you are looking at moving a home from somewhere else a local bank may be the way to go.
