Financing Your Manufactured or Modular Home

Unless you're paying cash, you'll need to obtain a home mortgage loan to finance your new or pre-owned home. There are many loan options available to qualified buyers, but the financing process can be overwhelming and difficult to understand.

Fortunately, Frank's Home Place has provided an easy 1-2-3 Step Guide to help its customers get on the right road to successful home financing! Follow the three easy steps below to get started!
