No this is a ranch style home and the price is 20,000 and my car loan is 7,500 and my cc is 4,000 and if they were all consolidated it would be doable on my income which is a very low SSI od 674, but if I continue with rent at 425 and car payment at 172 and cc at 100 a month and still have utilities and insurance and phone, I will be homeless. Help please.

My credit score is 680 to 730. The home is in KC, KS and I am in Lawrence, KS.

Hi,

It's a good idea to consolidate your car loans, credit card debts etc. into a single mortgage. You can then make one single monthly payment to pay all your debts. Your credit scores are quite good. However, your low income can be a problem for you to qualify for a consolidation loan. There are lenders in this community, with whom you may seek a no-obligation free mortgage consultation. This will let you know if you can qualify for the loan with the income that you currently have.

Hi Organize,

Mobile home loans are not easy to get these days. Doing cash-out refinance on your current mobile home loan may not be too easy. But given the fact that there is enough equity in the property and you qualify for the refinance, it should not be too difficult either.

However, the lenders may require you to pay certain amount of closing costs for the loan. They may also include the costs into the loan, but in that case the rate of interest will be increased.

You can contact your local lenders or can go for a no-obligation free mortgage consultation with the lenders in this community. They will assess your situation, check your credit scores and other factors and will let you know if you can refinance your mobile home.

Post     Post subject: unsecured promissory note

i am a holder of an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $140,000. the note is accruing 10% interest. at this point, i do not have specified repayment terms, although I will have a revised note with specified repayment terms within the next two weeks.

I'd like to assign this loan and receive the principal now. i am willing to "sell" the note for the principal only and have the "buyer" receive all of the interest.

is there a market for this type of transaction?

i'm sure there is, but not quite certain where.

you could always advertise on craigslist, and i surmise that you can also do internet searches for investors willing to undertake what you propose.

Post     Post subject: Purchase Double Wide Mobile Home and 4 lots

I am looking to purchase the property I currently have under a contract for deed. The property is located in Pittsburg, Texas and is a 1983 Double Wide on 4 lots in a waterfront addition. The home has decks surrounding the home, landscaped, etc. The last appraisal that was done on it was 2 years ago and it appraised for $40,000. The purchase price I would be financing is $38,000.00. Would like to to a conventional mortage for 15-20 years - any suggestions on lenders?

Hi,

You first need to check if the property is worth what you are purchasing it for. Things have changed drastically in the past few years and there's no guarantee that the home will still appraise at somewhere around $40k. The number of lenders offering loans against mobile homes has also gone down. You need to do some extensive search to find a lender to finance the mobile home. However, this should not be impossible either. If you have good income and credit scores, you can qualify for a conventional loan on your mobile home.

Hi EA,

It's true that there are very few lenders who are offering loans against manufactured homes. If your credit is perfect and the mobile is in good condition, there should not be any problem for you to get the loan. But given the changes in the mortgage industry after the subprime mortgage crisis, you will have to search a lot to find a lender offering loans against mobile homes. There are lenders in this community as well. You can go for a no-obligation free mortgage consultation and check out if they can help you with the loan.

I have an extremely high debt ratio at the current time. I need to consolidate my bills but my equity isn't that much. I owe 143,000 and my property appraised last time in the 180's and is insured for 186,000 currently. What type of loan would you suggest. Im in Utah and I currently have a rate at 6.125 30 yr. I have high credit card debt.

I want to purchase a 1998 Southern Mobile Home for my daughter. I must be pre-approved before I can look at the mobile home. How do I get pre-approved. The banks will not loan anything that is 10 years old or older. If I am pre-approved then I can put in a bid on the mobile home.

To Geri,

If you have extremely high debt-to-income ratio and there is not much of equity in the property, you will not qualify for an equity loan to be able to consolidate your bills. If you have too much of credit card debts and you want to consolidate them, you can contact a debt consolidation company or take help from a credit counseling agency. Through a debt consolidation or a debt management program, you can pay off your multiple credit card bills through single monthly payments. Once you start paying these bills, your credit scores also start to improve.

To Donald,

It’s true that the lenders now days do not offer loans against mobile homes which are a bit older. If you get pre-approved for a loan, you can put in a bid on the mobile home. But getting pre-approved for a loan to purchase an old mobile home will not be easy in this market. You can contact your local lenders. They may be able to assist you with the mobile home loan.

Post     Post subject: Bankruptcy

I've read from Toronto Mortgage Brokers that Depending on the circumstances surrounding my bankruptcy, generally some lenders would consider providing mortgage financing. I would like to get second opinion with you guys as well. We are about to lose our house but we have declared bankruptcy already. Thanks

Hi mondextrial,

In most of the cases, you need to wait for at least 2 years after the bankruptcy discharge to qualify for a new mortgage. However, in chapter 13 bankruptcy, if you have been making payments on time as per the repayment plan for about a year or so, you may qualify for a home loan. But in majority of the cases, a minimum of 2 year waiting period is a must if you want to get a loan after bankruptcy.
