Mobile Home Financing

Need mobile home financing?  What are the best places to get the best rate on a mobile home loan?

1. Your local credit union – if you don’t belong to one join one. Some credit unions are open to anyone who lives, works, attends church or school in the area.  Joining a church to get into a credit union who gives super low rates on credit cards, checking accounts and mobile home financing might not be a bad idea.
2. Your local bank if you don’t or can’t join a credit union is the next place to inquire.  If you already have a checking or savings account with your bank you might be eligible for lower rates on mobile home financing. Don’t be affraid to ask for a lower rate than what is posted publically especially if you have been a long time customer in good standing.
3. Use the Internet and get 5 quotes online. Then use each of those quotes against each other. Call the first company and tell them you got a better quote from company X and want to know if they would beat their rate. Then call company X and tell them company Y gave you a better rate and give them an opportunity to beat that new rate.  This takes some time, but it REALLY works.  Keep doing this will all 5 companies until you have reached the best quote you are going to get.

Poor Credit Mobile Home Loan

Do you have poor credit and need to get a loan on your mobile home?  Don’t worry all hope is not lost. here are a few things you can do to get a better rate on your mobile home loan.

1. Contact the credit reporting agencies and get the latest copy of your credit report and credit score. Make sure all information (good and bad) is correct and factual
2. Once you have determined your credit report is accurate – figure out which is the companies that is reporting badly about you, contact that creditor directly and work out a payment plan with them….they will usually do this if they feel you will make an effort.
3. Have a garage sale – Most people can sell items they really don’t need and come up with quick cash. use this cash to pay off creditors and get them to remove the information they have posted about you or at least make amendment to your report that you made a significant payment recently.
4. Do a real good job of searching your personal expense items, going over a budget to see what expenses you can cut or reduce and come up with cash. Can you live without a cell phone, cable or satellite TV for a few months while you SAVE this cash you would normally spend?  Pay off your creditors!
5. Most people can reduce their monthly spending by 20% if they really make up their mind to do so. This 20% can be used as a down payment on the mobile home loan or used to pay off existing debt. If you spend $1,000 a month on expenses (utilizes, rent, car, food etc) 20% would be $200….in 6 months this would be $1,200 which is a nice downpayment on a mobile home loan or to pay off exisiting debt….and it’s easy to do!
