FAQs.

  • What is the difference between a manufactured and modular home?

    Manufactured homes are built to federal HUD standards and typically constructed off-site, while modular homes are built to local building codes and are often treated more like traditional homes for financing.


  • Can I finance a manufactured home on rented land?

    In most cases, financing is more limited when the home is not on owned land. Many programs require the home to be permanently affixed to land you own.

    They can have more specific requirements than traditional homes, but there are still several financing options available depending on the property and borrower qualifications.
