Daughter with mediocre credit needs $40,000 loan for mobile home not on permanent foundation (land not included in purchase). I am willing to co-sign with 700+ credit score behind me. The state is NY. How do we find a lender?

Hi Tjc,

Welcome to the forum.

You cannot get a mortgage loan on a mobile home excluding the land. This is because such a home will then be considered as personal property and hence you will be getting personal property loans. However, if you include the land, you may qualify for mortgage loans on your mobile home.

We have a Community of ranked lenders who can help your daughter get a mortgage loan for the mobile home.

If you can provide all your details by way of a no obligation free loan sign up with us, we would then be able to forward your information to the lenders and let you know within a day or two if we can find a suitable lender as per your requirements.

Regards,
Jessica

with such a good credit score, don't think you will have any problems in qualifying with a mortgage lender. All you need is to shop with a number of such lenders who are ready to finance the mobile home without land. Compare the loan offers and then choose the one you prefer.

In NY, I would go to a local bank and ask for a Chattel loan. Some banks do "Make Sense" loans, and your loan makes sense. How bad is the daughter's credit? That could be a problem.

The foundation probably is not an issue. Inexperienced lender seem to get stuck on that all the time, but I bet it's fine. Good Luck - Randall

Certainly, a CHATTEL LOAN is the way to go. Finding the proper lender will be your chief challenge -- try a broker, ask for a chattel loan, and if they have no idea what you are talking about, try another broker. I normally go to only one source, myself. GOOD LUCK!!

Hi frances!

You said that your lender has not agreed to provide you with a refinance. Did you check the refinance option with other lenders? I think you should consult some other lenders and check if they can offer you refinance. I think they will.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi,

It'll not be easy to refinance the mobile home, since it's not on a permanent foundation and the land isn't owned by you. However, you can look to refinance with a personal property loan. You can also request your current lender to do a loan modification and lower the monthly payments so you can afford them.
