The Manufactured Housing Forums

Help! We need advice. We purchased a double wide NEW manufactured home a few weeks ago, in a rented park, obtained financing, THOUGHT we closed the deal., moved in and started upgrading things ( new better appliances, bath fixtures,landscaping.....) and found out that the park owner / dealer has not followed thru and signed the final papers with the lender we were approved with (even though we had "settlement" together and sined papers) . Do not have aclear understanding why the holdup. Maybe the lender is requiring something from the dealer/park owner that he is not able or willing to provide?? Anyway- where does that leave us? He cashed our earnest money deposit of $1000 but has not seemed to cash the remainder of the 10 % down yet. Who do we contact about a problem like this? We are all moved in, Out of our old home and have put quite a bit of sweat into the home and the move. Thought it was a done deal BEFORE we moved in... This latest development is quite a shock...Any advice? We are in Penna.

Contact your State Commissioner about your problem ASAP.

Also contact your bank, to hold payment on the 10% down as a caution until the matter gets settled.

What has the dealer told you about this....somethibng is very wrong...Be ready to be gfetting an attorney..save everything you have signed.....The othe post here is good advice....
