I want to purchase a manufactured home with land.


Loan Features:
  • Great for First Time Homebuyers
  • Low Down Payment

Manufactured Housing

KHC requires an Affidavit of Conversion to Real Estate per KRS186A.297, when manufactured home is permanently affixed to land.

The Certificate of Title is surrendered.

If manufactured house has not been converted to real estate, then this can be done at closing.
The following items need to be uploaded in the Closed Loan Package:

A copy of the recorded affidavit and the surrendered title to the manufacture home.
A copy of the executed affidavit and title (to be surrendered) sent to the county clerk for recording.

If a new manufactured home, copy of the original certificate of origin from the manufacturer that is going to be delivered to the county clerk so that title can be ordered.

After title is received, affidavit is prepared for recording and title is surrendered.
Within 90 days or less from closing date, need original of newly recorded affidavit and coy of surrendered title.

Failure to send to KHC within timeframe could result in repurchase.
Affixations are not acceptable.

Do not record affixations with the mortgage.
