Refinance predicament need help ASAP
I am wondering if anyone can help me with next steps. I have been leasing a mobile home on 1 1/2 acres of land for 4 1/2 years. The owner is elderly and wanted me to transfer it to my name before anything happened to him. I talked to a mortgage company and was told my credit cleared and everything was good to go for a refinance as soon as it showed up at with the county appraiser. I would be able to give the owner his 20,000 I owed, which we signed a promissory note for. As well as get out additional cash to pay off some debt and do some house remodeling. My goal is to use this as a rental in the near future. The person I have been dealing with started coming back with all sorts of issues (the lender doesn't do mobile homes anymore, he found two more that would but now I have to wait until November, I can do it now if I have someone else sign with me because my student loans count against me even though I am on a repayment plan of $100 a month for 9 more years). I am so confused. Is there any other option I have to get a refinance or equity line? I have been on the deed since december 13.
