For the home buyer who wants new construction a
manufactured home can be a good way to go since they are built to the same
standards as an on-site stick-built house. In fact because they are built in a
controlled environment a factory built home is not subject to the rigors of
weather and the outdoor environment. Because of this most home lenders are more
then willing to make loans for these types of houses.
So where do you start when looking for a manufactured home loan?
That question is easy to answer; the same places you can get a mortgage for a
conventionally built home since the majority of banks and lenders view factory
built homes in the same way. This means your local bank, a mortgage broker, or
online lender will be more then happy to process your loan request.
If you do choose to try going online to get your loan quote you’ll be quite
surprised at how easy it can be considering you don’t even need to leave your
house. Most banks offer online loan application services in addition to their in
bank services. You’ll also find lenders who are specialists in the online
lending world. Which ever route you decide to go you’ll get a quick response
with good service.
Online manufactured home loan services are designed to process your loan
application quickly meaning you can have a decision in a short amount of time.
In fact it may be much quicker then if you make a trip to your local loan
officer. You will also be able to take advantage of different types of loans at
competitive interest rates.
There are five basic steps you’ll need to follow if you do decide to go the
online route. Another advantage of doing it over the internet is the ability to
get multiple quotes from different lenders while only filling out one
application. This gives you tremendous flexibility to find the best loan for
your situation.
1. When going online find a site that will give you the multiple quote option.
This will save you time since you’ll only need to fill out one application.
2. Once you submit the application you will be contacted by representatives of
the lending companies. They will need to verify the information on the
application and ask for additional info if needed. This might include proof of
income or tax returns.
3. After verification you will have to print out your application and sign it
then either fax or mail it to the loan company. You will include your proof of
income (pay stubs) or tax returns at this time.
4. The lenders, after processing the paper work, will contact you with the terms
of their loan offers. At this time you can choose which works best for your
needs and set up a closing with that lender.
5. After the closing papers are signed the money is released for the purchase of
your manufactured home.
Getting manufactured home loans is no different then that of a conventional
home. The process is the same and the end result is a place you can call home.
