nana25k Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 A VA loan would be my first choice.. or a credit union as my second.The VA doesn't gaurentee RVs only real property Call Rich Holke at Alliant Credit Union. They specialize in financing full time RVs which many financial institutions won't do. They are also Escapee members. Many we know used them. They are fast and responsive. Other than faxing them copies of our ID to open an account everything else was done online, even signing the loan docs. They will require 1 years insurance premium held in your account so factor that in your money. Once we were ready to finalize the deal and had the insurance money wired in the account it took 24 hours to get the check via overnight delivery. One of their employees even stayed late to process the documents because our other bank screwed up the funds wired for the insurance and it didn't get to them until 4pm. Can't say enough good things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dartmouth01 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I also used Alliant, but for a weekender. The rate was very good, and did not require insurance premium in my checking acct, perhaps since the value was only $30k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarome Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 The VA doesn't gaurentee RVs only real property That's why I should always use my glasses. I read "mobilehome" and obviously ignored the thread title.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Mayer Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Will they finance an HDT? No. There are only a few lenders in the country that will do HDT financing. Your local bank that you have a long-term relationship may do a signature loan for one, assuming you have the credit rating But in general it is very, very difficult to finance an HDT for RV use.

richfaa Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Shop around for the best rates they change constantly. We got the best rate this time at US bank last time at our credit union time before that at out local PNC bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HFCU did for us and Alliant did not say no. We do have a long time relationship with HFCU also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
