Types of Texas Manufactured Home Loans
FHA loans are ideal if you're looking for low down payments and lenient credit qualifications. The FHA Title I and Title II loan programs support both home purchases and land-home financing, giving you versatile solutions for your housing needs.
If you're a veteran or active-duty service member, VA loans offer unmatched benefits like zero down payments, competitive interest rates, and no private mortgage insurance requirement, making your manufactured home more accessible than ever.
USDA loans are perfect for purchasing manufactured homes in rural Texas areas. These loans often require zero down payment and provide attractive interest rates to qualified rural homebuyers.
Conventional loans provide competitive interest rates and flexible terms, ideal if you have a stronger credit profile and a substantial down payment. They often cover both home-only (chattel loans) and land-home financing solutions.
Chattel loans specifically finance the manufactured home itself, while land-home loans finance both the home and the land on which it sits. Each offers tailored solutions depending on your property ownership goals.
To qualify for most manufactured home loans, the property must:
- Be built after June 15, 1976, and have an HUD tag
- Have a permanent foundation according to FHA guidelines
- Be classified and taxed as real property (for mortgage loans)
- Meet minimum square footage requirements (typically 400+ sq ft)
- Be the primary residence of the borrower (for most loan programs)

Manufactured homes are built to the HUD Code established in 1976, which sets standards for construction, design, energy efficiency, and durability. Mobile homes were built before these standards were implemented. Today’s manufactured homes are engineered for quality, safety, and longevity.
In many cases, yes! Manufactured homes that are permanently affixed to owned land and classified as real property can qualify for traditional mortgage financing. We offer FHA, VA, and conventional loan options for eligible manufactured homes.
For homes in manufactured housing communities where you don’t own the land, we offer chattel loans specifically designed for this situation. These loans have different terms than traditional mortgages but provide a viable path to homeownership.
