How It Works
How a chattel loan actually works
A chattel loan finances a manufactured or mobile home as personal property rather than real estate. It is the standard solution when the home sits in a leased-land community or park.
- 01
Confirm the structure
If you own the land, a traditional mortgage may be available. If the land is leased, chattel is the right product.
- 02
Home eligibility
Year built, HUD tags, size and condition all matter. We confirm eligibility before you spend money.
- 03
Down payment & credit
Typically 5–20% down depending on credit, home age and whether the home is new or pre-owned.
- 04
Community approval
The park or community typically must approve you as a resident alongside the loan approval.
- 05
Appraisal or valuation
Manufactured home valuation uses cost and comparable sales specific to this asset class.
- 06
Faster, lower-cost closing
Chattel closings move faster and cost less than real-property mortgages, with terms usually 15–25 years.
Your Options
Manufactured home financing paths
Which product fits depends entirely on the land, the home and its foundation.
- Chattel in a leased-land park
- Home financed as personal property with the lot rented from the community.
- Land-home mortgage
- When you own the land and the home is permanently affixed, conventional or FHA financing may apply.
- FHA Title I / Title II
- Government-backed options for qualifying manufactured homes.
- New home purchase
- Financing through a dealer for a new unit, typically with the best rates and terms.
- Pre-owned home purchase
- Shorter terms and higher down payments as the home ages.
- Chattel refinance
- Lower the rate or payment on an existing manufactured home loan.
Honest Advice
When chattel financing is the right answer
Manufactured housing is one of the last genuinely affordable options. Understanding the trade-offs is essential.
Ideal for you
A great fit if you have…
Leased-land communities
When you do not own the lot, chattel is generally the only realistic financing available.
Affordability priority
The total payment is often far below comparable site-built housing in the same area.
Newer homes
Newer manufactured homes get better terms, longer amortization and lower down payments.
Another program may win
Consider alternatives if you have…
Rate premium
Chattel rates run above real-property mortgages because there is no land securing the loan.
Lot rent increases
Your lot rent is not fixed by the loan. Factor future increases into your budget.
Appreciation
Manufactured homes on leased land may not appreciate like real estate. Buy for the housing, not the return.

Questions
Common Chattel Loans Questions
What is a chattel loan?
A chattel loan finances the manufactured home itself rather than the home and land together — the right tool when the home sits in a park, on leased land, or on family land you don’t own.
How is a chattel loan different from a regular mortgage?
The home (not real property) secures the loan, so closings are faster with lower closing costs. Terms are typically 15-25 years, and rates run somewhat higher than land-home mortgages.
Can I finance a home in a mobile home park?
Yes — chattel loans are the standard financing for homes in parks and manufactured home communities where you rent the lot.
What are the requirements for chattel financing?
Generally a 5-10% down payment, fair-or-better credit, and a home built to HUD standards (post-1976). New and used homes can both qualify — we’ll walk you through it.
