Refinance double wide mobile home on land

Johnny Dlcrz
Posted

My wife and I own a fully renovated 3/2 double wide on .25 acre  very close to a waterway . We invested around $75k out the door for everything including home and land and We have tenants in it that just made a full year renting at a rate of $1300. We paid cash for it two years ago now we are trying to refinance and get some cash out to invest into our real estate deals . Who would finance a deal like this I’ve heard it’s more difficult with manufacturer homes . Any advice is greatly appreciated

@Johnny Dlcrz this is one of the hardest property types to do anything on.  Writting a cash out loan on a mobile home is really difficult.  

Here's my 2 suggestions:

  1. Visit your local REI groups. There are many groups that meet across the country. Some post here on the Bigger Pockets Marketplace. Many post on meetup.com. Even facebook has some. You'll need to ask around and local real estate investors is a good place to start. Would certainly recommend visiting if one is close to you.
  2. Calling - and then there's this option.  First, when calling banks target the smallest most community based banks you can first. If you have never heard of them, and they have one location - that's a good candidate. No big, national, publicly traded banks will do this loan type.  Second, most of these smaller banks may only have 12 employees or so. So don't get frustrated if they don't return your call or aren't in the office. Just call back and be friendly. Maybe play dumb a little "I don't know if I'm in the right place..." "I'm sorry to disturb you, you may not be the right person for this....", etc. Maybe someone can get you to the right person. Again, be prepared to call A LOT

Hope that helps in some way.
