Post     Post subject: finding a mortgage company to refinance our mobile home

My husband and I are wanting to refinance our mobile home, it is on a permanent foundation and we have done alot of improvements to the home inside and out. Our home has ceramic tile floors and real hardwood floors and new carpet we added and additional room on to the back of the home a covered front porch and paved driveway along with an above ground pool we did about 60,000.00 worth of improvements this year. My husband is recentaly retired and I have disability. We both filed a bankruptcy I filed a 7 and he a 13 which both have been discharged over a year. I am in the process of rebuilding our credit and we have NEVER been late on the mortgage payment. We are currently paying 12.75% interest and its killing us. We own 76,000 on our home and it has 0 equity we have been taken advantage of by several mortgage companies. Any suggestions on what to do we are paying 842.43 a month and need to refinance. Also the home was built in 1997 and is considered a hybrid home and we are on spring water. GRRR.

Sincerely
All mortgaged out... Sad

Hi Pixis!

Welcome to forums!

Did you contact with your present lender and requested for a refinance? If not, then I would suggest you to do the same. Check out what your lender has to say in this regard. You can even speak to the lenders of this community and seek a no obligation free mortgage consultation from them. You would get to know whether or not you would get a loan.

Post     Post subject: Buying a Mobile Home

I am looking to buy a mobile home with my fiance. The particular home we are looking at was built in the 1960s, but completely renovated in 2002. The home is located in a park, and we would not own the land.

What type of loan, mortgage, etc, would be the best for our situation?

Hi cldegrove,

Did you speak to your existing lender about the refinance? If not, then you should speak to him and check out what options he is offering you. However, it's not mandatory to refinance the loan with the same lender. You may even speak to the other lenders and get to know the rates and terms. You can also seek a no obligation free mortgage quote from the lenders of this community and check out whether or not you would receive a loan.

Hi Holley,

You need to speak to a mortgage broker regarding the mobile home loan and get pre-approved for it. Also note that, mobile homes build prior to 1976 hardly qualify for loans. In that case, you'll have to look out for personal property loans which are available with the retailers who sell mobile homes.

Hi DONALD,

You can check out the market rates and terms and accordingly lower the interest rate. To know about the present market rates, check out the given page:

Post     Post subject: Paying off my mother in law

I have had some deliquencies in the past year due to my husbands health issues. He lost his job and is now recieving social security after working 30 yrs. We have a 1986 single home on 2 acres with no loans on. I had it appraised at 145k last year. I tried to get a loan to pay off my mother in law, which we owe her 85k for the purchase of this property but no one wants to loan for a single wide.
Is there any lenders that loan for a single wide on 2 acres w/2 car garage.

Hi Terri,

You'll have to refinance the mortgage in your name. You can contact your present lender and apply for it. Depending upon the equity in your property, your credit score and your income, you would be able to receive the refinance.

Hi anonymous,

I don't think there is any such grant which would pay for the mobile home park for HUD. You'll have to contact the lenders who would help you with a mobile home loan. You should speak to the local lenders of your area and apply for a loan.

I am currently paying a mortgage on a 1997 single wide mobile home, and I need to either find out if I can have it refinanced with a fair credit score, or I need to find out about a fixed land loan. At this time I rent a lot space.

Hi Frankie,

If you want to lower your mortgage payments, then you can refinance the mortgage provided if you've equity in the property. Also, while giving you a refinance, the lender will check your credit score and income. So, if you do not have a stable income or a good credit score, you won't be able to refinance it.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Hi ash,

What's your credit score like? If you do not have a good credit score, then you'll not be able to qualify for a loan. In order to get a conventional loan, you should have a credit score of 700. If you've the required credit score, you should contact the lenders of your area and try to get approved for a loan.
