Financing built for new manufactured homes

Buying a new home from a retailer is the most common way families move into manufactured housing. A home-only loan finances the home itself, so you can place it in a land-lease community, on family land or on land you already own without refinancing the land.

What you can finance

- New single-wide, double-wide and multi-section HUD-Code homes
- Delivery and set-up costs when included in the retailer's purchase agreement
- Homes placed in communities, on leased lots or on private land

How it works

Pick your home. Choose a floor plan with your retailer and get the purchase price in writing.

Prequalify. Tell us about the home, your down payment and your credit. Prequalifying does not affect your credit score.

Get your terms. We review your application and send a written offer showing the APR, payment and total cost.

Close and move in. After closing, we pay the retailer and your home is delivered and set.

Good to know

New homes usually qualify for the lowest rates and longest terms we offer because their value is easy to establish. A larger down payment lowers both your payment and the total interest you pay.

Common questions

What is the difference between a chattel loan and a mortgage?

A chattel (home-only) loan finances the manufactured home as personal property, without the land. It is used for homes in land-lease communities or on land you don't own. A mortgage, or land-and-home loan, finances the home and the land together as real property. Mortgages usually have longer terms and lower rates; chattel loans close faster and have lower closing costs.

How much down payment do I need for a mobile home?

Down payments for home-only loans usually start around 5% for new homes and 10% or more for pre-owned homes. Land-and-home loans can start lower. If you own your land, its equity may count toward your down payment. The calculator shows the minimum down payment for each program.

Can I finance a used mobile home?

Yes. We finance pre-owned manufactured homes built on or after June 15, 1976, when the federal HUD Code took effect. The home must be in good condition with a clear title. Older homes may need a larger down payment or a shorter term.

Can I get a loan for a home in a mobile home park?

Yes. Homes in land-lease communities are financed with home-only (chattel) loans. We review the community's lease terms, and your lot rent counts toward your monthly housing cost.

How long are mobile home loan terms?

Home-only loans typically run 10 to 25 years, depending on whether the home is new or pre-owned. Land-and-home loans can run up to 30 years. A longer term lowers your monthly payment but increases the total interest you pay.
