Modular Home Prices

I have bought a home 3 years ago,I was wondering if we could get a modular home in the near future.But how much would it be the mortgage.Does it double the payments or is a contruction loan then converts into a regular loan?I am not sure of how it works

I am selling my house and my buyer has a modular home for sale herself. Her buyer is having a problem securing a mortgage I believe because the home is a modular home. I am trying to help her so it will help my house to sell. I appreciate any information. Thanks Chuck

I had a mobile home that cost about 00 in a trailer park which I still had to pay rent on. Since it wasn’t really a homestead, can I still claim the tax credit when I purchase an actual home? I hadn’t taken a mortgage or anything out for the trailer.

We could not afford a mortgage any higher than 0,000. The home I am looking at is ,000. Home is in a park and has a 0 lot rent per month. It was built in 1998. We haven’t looked at it closely, but for the purpose of getting opinions, we’ll say it is in good condition. Could you please give your personal experiences or opinions on purchasing a modular home in a park?

I need to know what the mortgage would be on a 39,000 dollar mobile home in Vancouver bc. I also need to know what taxes would cost and the prices of gas, utilities, electric, cable, and rent. These can be generalized or esitmated. Thanks

Sometimes, i’ve heard it’s cheaper to have a mortgage and rent space for a mobile home than renting an apt. If i don’t plan on buying a home for a while, until i know where to settle, is buying a mobile home an alternate option? Does this make any sense?

I hold a mortgage on a land-mobile home combination. The buyer has abandonded the property. Can I use the power of attorney he signed to do the title work to file a quit claim and return the property to my name?

We live in Alberta Canada, and are looking at a mobile home that is 28 years old. So far every bank has told us that it is not possible to put a mortgage on this type of home because we will not own the land. The cost is only 17,500 and an incredible opportunity for us if we could only get the money! We earn decent money, and even have a co-signer lined up.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!

I’ve found the perfect property in central Florida. It’s right next door to my best friend. It’s an acre of land with an older single-wide mobile home on it. It’s the only home I can afford without being an absolute shack on no property. I love this because I’d be spending my money mostly investing in the property, and I could build my dream home on it later.
The problem is, I have no down payment. I was told there are programs out there that help with that. I was approved by my bank for the mortgage, so I have good credit. However, every government program I could find will not help with the purchase of a mobile home; not SHIP, not First Time Homebuyers, not Fannie Mae, not HOME, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas???

I need to sell my mobile home and the couple that wants to buy, can not get a loan. How can I sell it to them if it has a mortgage? They will just be taking over payments. I do have the title

I live in a very expensive city (San Diego). I plan on being here for a while longer but don’t want to piss money away on rent anymore.
The only thing I can afford to buy out here is a manufactured home because a decent 500sq ft. condo or townhouse out here won’t go for less than 5K (yes I said 500 sq ft ridiculous, I know) and of course if I’m paying a mortgage, I want more room.
I grew up in the suburbs and know nothing about this.
Any info would be helpful.

I have 4 children that would like to keep their own bedrooms after years of having to share. I own 1.5 acres of land and a double wide mobile home. I want out of my mobile home. I have been seriously looking at log cabins & modular homes. I would put them on a slab on my property. After weeks of internets searches, I found a modular home that I am very interested in–the Cinci Cape by Palm Harbor. Anyone have any input on modulars or Palm Harbor?
How well made are they?
Do they retain their value?
Does thair value increase like a traditional "stick" home?
How do they compair in cost? Are they really substantially cheaper?
What should I look for?
If I decide against the modular home, what input do you have on log cabins?
Are they a realistic option in southern LA?
Are they energy efficient?
Do they settle and become unlevel?
Ideas people?
I cant afford to build traditionally, but I do not want to live in a mobile home any longer.
There is a substantial difference between mobile homes and modular homes–the differance starts with the ground up… mobile homes are on metal frames and are raised–modular homes are built like "stick" homes and can go on foundations/slabs.
Also, I am not renting. I own the land outright and have a mortgage on my mobile home. And, surprisingly, the value of the two has almost doubled since I bought them 7 years ago.
