Let’s talk numbers… 7 Easy Steps to Ownership

Are you planning on buying a new mobile home in Alabama? 

Manufactured homes are in high demand and home ownership can be an exhilarating experience, but it can be just as bewildering if you have no idea what to expect. Many first-time home buyers have no clear understanding of the manufactured ownership process. If you are one of those, you are at the right place. In this blog, we will look at seven easy steps to help you make your homeownership a smooth and hassle-free experience. Let’s dive right in!


Step 1: Fix a budget. 

The first objective is to determine how much you can spend on your new mobile home. Establishing a budget will make it easier to narrow down your options. Ideally, you should look for homes that cost no more than three times your household’s annual income.


Step 2: Research available homes. 

When finding your dream manufactured home, you should research extensively. You can search for information on our Jaco Home Sales website for options or stop by to take a look at some of the homes that are available that are not on the sales lot. Make sure to keep a pen and paper handy to put together a list of the homes and custom options that you are interested in. Don’t forget to look for suitable locations for your new manufactured home placement.


Step 3: Get prequalified for financing.

Provide your us or your lender with some basic financial information to verify your financial standing and credit history. After the initial assessment, they will let you know how much you can borrow for your new manufactured home.


Step 4: Consult with a manufactured home dealership.  

Manufactured home dealerships, such as Jaco Home Sales, have useful information on many types and styles of manufactured homes (even those that are not accessible to the masses), specialized knowledge of the mobile home buying process, and excellent negotiating skills. You can also get in touch with our manufactured home specialists at Jaco Sales LLC to get some help during the financing process. With us by your side, you are more likely to make the right call.


Step 5: Select a manufactured home and custom options.

Now, you can select manufactured homes in your price range. Choose wisely, keeping in mind the location where you will be placing your new mobile home. To make your home uniquely yours, you can also choose from a broad assortment of optional upgrades that most manufacturers offer. 


Step 6: Close on the purchase of your home.

Once you have completed all of the above steps, you can seal the deal and sign all the paperwork. Time to schedule your delivery date window.


Step 7: Schedule a delivery and setup window.

You can choose a delivery date along with a setup window as per your convenience. The manufacturer will deliver your brand new mobile home as well as set it up - all you have to do is enjoy the coziness of your humble abode.
