Mobile Home Loans

Most of us have at least once in our lifetime dreamt of going back-packing across the world, wanting to experience the thrill and adventure a nomadic life like that has to offer. And most of us have given up that dream when confronted with the not so desirable reality of leaving the comfort of our homes.

But the availability of static caravans or ‘Mobile Homes’ in the market provides a readymade solution. Back in the 1950’s these mobile homes or ‘travel trailers’ as they were called were sold primarily as a low cost housing option that could be set up easily and left at the location for years together. These could even be fixed permanently at a point with the use of a cemented foundation.

These trailers varied from six to eight feet in width but in 1956, ‘Mobile Homes’ were introduced that were almost ten feet wide. These offered a much needed respite to the financially weak who could not afford a conventional site-built house or those hesitant to spend large sums of money on basic housing. In today’s day and age, Mobile Homes are available in two common sizes, Single wides that are eighteen feet or less in width and Double wides that are twenty feet or more in width.

These Mobile Homes have since emerged as a viable surrogate to permanent housing. And for those who like adventure but are loath to give up the luxury of their homes, these mobile homes are a definite God-sent.
