Re: Looking for Lender Who Works with Land/Used Mobile Home Packages
I am glad you already are getting a response, but I doubt this lender will be the right one for you. I hope you hear from some with more manufactured home experience. It will take a very experienced lender to help you through all the steps to finish yours. Most are used to financing after the land h...

Re: Looking for Lender Who Works with Land/Used Mobile Home Packages

Re: Completely Surprised
Remember if you ask the government to change its terminology, you the outsider(maybe even YANKEE) will be asking an old school southerner who calls a certain tortoise a gofer and probably calls your home a trailer (not yet accepting the much more modern mobile home term).

Re: Bought First home and need help and advice!!

Re: Please help me find a nice mobile home that is actually nice and mobile
