Many people in New Jersey prefer to buy mobile homes, as they offer lower mortgage interest rates than stick-built houses. They need to have a leased or owned land on which they can place their mobile homes. There are parks where mobile home owners can place their homes. However, these houses depreciate in value more quickly than the ones placed on, owned or leased lands. If the mobile home buyers require a mortgage, they can request the dealers to provide the name of lenders who specialize in funding these kinds of homes.
The state of New Jersey has it own set of rules and regulations that mobile homeowners have to comply to in order to build as well as to get the home financed. There are certain certification prerequisites that are necessary to confirm that the mobile home complies with the construction and safety standards.
Private lenders finance mobile homes mortgages as Federal Housing Administration (FHA) does not fund these types of mortgages. As there is no government backing for these loans, they do not have low interest rates. This further implies that the loans will also be extended for people with bad credit history. However, such borrowers will be provided these loans at, a higher than usual interest rate depending on the risk involved. The interest rates for mobile homeowners in New Jersey are decided according to the prevailing market conditions.
Mortgage loan providers for mobile homes put some specific conditions on the mortgage loan provided. The mortgage amount and the term of the loan depend heavily on the location of the house. The terms for mortgage loans for a mobile home can be anywhere between fifteen to twenty years.
To apply for a mobile home mortgage in New Jersey, homeowners need to provide proof of their financial stability. They are also required to put down at least, 5 percent of the loan amount as down payment.
