Find the one that fits

More than a home. It’s a way of life.

Getting into a home

What it actually takes

Three questions decide whether someone buys a home this way, and almost nobody answers them without making you call first. Here they are.

The cash

What you need up front

$5,000

puts you in the most affordable home here at $1,198 a month, all in, over 25 years at 11.00% APR, financing $53,900. You will also need your first month’s lot rent of $625.

The lender sets the minimum down payment, and it depends on your credit. More down always lowers the payment, the slider on every home shows by how much.

The credit

What your credit has to be

No score to shop

Nothing on this site touches your credit. You can price every home, change your down payment and see what fits without anyone running anything.

When you do apply, the lenders who finance homes of this type look at a wider range of credit than a bank mortgage desk does. We are not a lender and we do not approve anyone, we send your application to people who do, and they tell you your real terms.

The time

How long until you live there

1 ready now

One home is on the lot today, those move at the speed of your loan, usually a few weeks. Anything ordered from the factory takes 4–12 weeks to build and deliver, and every listing shows its own estimated move-in date.

An estimate, not a commitment. Weather, the lender and the inspection schedule all move it.

And here is the whole path

  1. Pick the homeYou are here
    Browse what is on the lot, set your down payment, and see the real all-in payment on each one. Nothing here costs anything or touches your credit.
  2. Tell us about you
    Seven questions, about a minute. We call you back, usually within a few minutes during office hours, and talk through what actually fits.
  3. Get approved
    We send your application to lenders who finance homes of this type. They pull your credit at this point, under their own authorization, and tell us your real terms.
  4. Choose your lot
    Walk the community and pick your site. We hold it for you while the paperwork finishes.
  5. Sign and fund
    Deposit, contracts, and funding. We handle delivery, set, skirting, steps and utility connections.
  6. Move in
    Final inspection and your certificate of occupancy, then keys. Most homes are ready within a few weeks of funding.
