Need some help refinancing.

The short of it is, I have a double wide trailer, approx 18 years old, on a brick foundation, with a Fannie Mae 15 year loan. The payment is 1100 a month and the rent coming in is only 650. Ive talked to several banks, and none are willing to help me refinance it.
I would like to ask your advice on creative ways to get the mortgage payment closer to what the incoming rent is.
As I know very little about financing, any accurate, or detailed descriptions are most welcome!

Can you just sell? If rent is only $650, then the most you can pay for P&I and be profitable is about $325. I'm guessing the $1100 includes taxes and insurance, but that's a big difference to overcome.

Trailers aren't usually considered real estate. They're personal property, like a car. They're much tougher to finance than real estate, especially for a long term.
