Achieving the American dream of home ownership can be challenging sometimes with the criteria that traditional lenders have in place. For those who want to go the route of buying a manufactured home, it can be even tougher. But while tougher, it is not impossible. There are lenders that will finance a manufactured home, and there are even some available with owner financing.

Owner financing on a manufactured home can be the perfect solution for a number of circumstances. It is often easier to qualify, as each owner sets their own criteria, and most are more flexible than traditional lenders. In some cases, they are content with a lower down payment, although that is not always the case. Some terms of the financing might be better than with a conventional mortgage. You should review the interest rate, length of the loan, balloon payment (if present), and consequences of default. As with any legal document, if you do not fully understand about all the terms, you should consult with an attorney before proceeding.
