Major revisions to manufactured home standards were enacted by Congress in 1976. These revisions were so significant that getting a pre-1976 manufactured home loan is difficult.

pre-1976 Manufactured Home Financing

We have the ability to provide financing for select pre-1976 manufactured homes in Florida. To be eligible, significant equity must exist in the land-home, no restrictions should exist that prevent the land being used for similar or higher and better use. The borrower must have good credit and a history of stable income. As with post-1976 manufactured homes, double wides and triple wides are easier to finance than single wides.

Post 1976 Manufactured Home Financing

Just because the age of a manufactured home is newer than 1976 doesn't mean all manufactured home lenders will finance it. Some investors will not mortgage a manufactured home that is more than 30 years old. Others cut off at 20 years and others will not finance a manufactured home older than 15 years. So, the best financing terms terms are when the age of manufactured home is less than 15 years.
