hi Jessica my wife and i are trying to get our tax credit for our first time buyer purchase. The IRS is wanting us to appeal it because my wife had purchased a single wide about ten years ago. Is this true, the single wide is not on permanent foundation and it still has the axles. is the IRS correct and should i appeal this.

Post     Post subject: manufactured home loan

We are in the market to get a manufactured home loan. We currently live in a home that we owe 88000 on. We plan on selling it for no less thatn 125000. We have found a manufactured home on 5 acres that is priced at around 90000. When we sell our home, we would like to have around 10000 to make improvements on the manufactured home we plan on purchasing. What kind of loan programs are available?
What kind of credit score would we need to get a loan?

Hi tim,

You and your wife will be able to get the first time homebuyer's tax credit only if both of you haven't owned any property for the last 3 years. If your wife is still the owner of the single wide property, then she won't be able to qualify for a first time homebuyer's tax credit.

To Catherine,

You can look out for home improvement loans in order to improve your manufactured home. However, if you're short selling the property, then you won't be able to get a mortgage within the next 3-4 years. In order to get a conventional mortgage, you should have a credit score of 700-720.

Take care

To missy,

A query similar to yours has been answered in the given page:
http://www.mortgagefit.com/loantalk/mobilehome-purchase.html#183203

Take a look at it. Hope it helps you.

To anonymous,

You need to contact the local mobile home loan lenders in order to get a mortgage. You will have to pay a down payment of at least 20% in order to get a loan. Apart from this, you should have a score of 700-720 to qualify for a conventional loan.

Post     Post subject: Credit Score way down after 25 years of excellent credit

We have good stable income thru my husbands job of 25 years and he makes over 70K - our credit went down when I lost my six figure job due to the economy and I also have 24 years on the job and we owned a few homes in the past making over 12K per month in house payments for 10 years and then when I lost my income we decided it might be best to downsize to a new manufactured home in a park. Our credit is shot but was in the high 600's and mid 700's for many many years with no credit issues at all since we were loaned credit - we had a credit line of 20K with Am Ex monthly and we paid that off. We are settling our debt and the home will come first and we only have one car payment. Can we get a no FICO loan? since our credit is so low? How about a VA loan - are they more forgiving if you are moving down to a more affordable payment?

To Guest,

I don't think you will get a list of VA or FHA lenders offering mobile home loans. You need to contact the local lenders and apply for VA or FHA loans. They will let you know whether or not they can offer you the same.

To lulutwo,

Unless you have employment, you won't be able to get a property on rent.

To Nester,

You won't be able to get a no-FICO loan. If your credit is not good, the lenders won't be ready to give you a home loan. You'll have to improve your credit score and then look out for a mortgage.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi!

Welcome to forums!

To Debbie,

If your credit is not good, it won't be possible for you to qualify for a mobile home loan. You should improve your credit score first and then look out for a mortgage. In order to know some steps to improve your credit score, check out the given page:

To charles,

This is a mortgage community and not a mortgage company. If you want to get a loan for your manufactured home, you'll have to contact the local lenders in order to qualify for a mortgage. They will check your financial situation and let you know whether or not you qualify for a mortgage.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

After the crisis in the real estate market, the lenders have stopped giving NINA loans. Unless you've sufficient income and financial stability, the lenders will not give you a mortgage.
