As the property is located on a rented lot, you will have to go for a personal property loan. These loans are available at a higher interest rate.

Hi Suzanne!

Welcome to forums!

Mobile homes which were build before 1976 do not qualify for loans. The mobile home loan lenders are concerned about the depreciation of the property value of such old homes. Also, you've mentioned that you have a bad credit. After the real estate crisis, most of the lenders have stopped giving loans to people with bad credit.

You can look out for mobile homes which are build after 1976, improve your credit score and then try for loans. Check out the given page in order to know some steps to improve your credit score:

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Post     Post subject: financing a 1973 mobile home loan

Hi Suzanne,

You won't be able to get a mortgage loan for purchasing a 1973 mobile home. But you can take out a personal property loan which is usually available at a higher interest rate as compared to mortgages. Another option to buy the mobile home is owner financing. Under this option, you'll pay the purchase price in monthly installments. In case you can't make the payments, the seller may have the right to take away your home provided he's made a written agreement mentioning the terms and conditions of the owner financing contract.

With regards,

Jessica

Hi trinkee,

Zero-down loans hardly exist in the market these days. After the crisis in the real estate market, the lenders have stopped giving mortgages to borrowers who cannot offer a down payment. If you can offer a 5% down payment, you would be able to qualify for a FHA loan. If you want to go for a conventional mortgage, then along with the 5% down, you'll have to go for a PMI as well. However, a bad credit history will also make it difficult for you to qualify for a mortgage.

Hi Lakeland,

You can use a manufactured home as collateral to qualify for a mortgage. With a credit score of 629, you would be able to get a FHA loan. You can contact the FHA approved lenders and apply for a mortgage.

I guess you need to participate in the foreclosure auctions in order to know who financed the mobile homes.

Hi markartthebeach,

As you have equity in your property, you would be able to get a refinance. You need to contact your present lender and apply for the refinancing of the mortgage. In case, the rates and terms given by the lender is not affordable for you, then you can speak to the other local lenders and try to refinance your loan.

Take care.
