This program insures mortgage loans made by private lending institutions to finance the purchase of a new or used manufactured home.
HUD has been providing loan insurance on manufactured homes under Title I since 1969. By protecting mortgage lenders against the risk of default, HUD's participation has encouraged them to finance
manufactured homes, which had traditionally been financed as personal property through comparatively high-interest, short-term consumer installment loans. The program thereby increases the
availability of affordable financing and mortgages for buyers of manufactured homes and allows buyers to finance their home purchase at a longer term and lower interest rate than with conventional
loans.
The program insures lenders against loss from default on loans of up to $48,600. The program insures private lenders against losses of up to 90 percent of the value of a single loan. Total insurance
coverage is limited to 10 percent of the lender's Title I portfolio. The buyer must agree to make a 5 percent down payment and interest rate payments determined by the lender. Annual insurance
charges start at $1 per $100 of the loan amount, but are reduced in the later years of the loan. The maximum loan term varies from 20 to 25 years.
