Manufactured Housing Lending in Communities
  • Marty Lavin, Tim Williams,
  • Jeff Mouat
2
The Industry Pullbacks
  • High volume periods, then peaks followed by a crash
  • During crash better lending and better types of loans
  • more loans with real estate
  • more loans on private property
  • many fewer loans in communities result
  • much higher credit with better execution
3
Funding Sources
  • 1960’s and 1970’s – till ’73
  • Virtually every bank involved (52% of all new housing starts)
  • Then crash, and GECC and S & L’s till late 1980’s
  • Then crash, and ABS markets start in 1987
  • Crash and no new source in sight for money
  • Who will be next?  (125,000 annual shipments now)
4
Will GSE’s Become a Source?
  • Tremendous liquidity and clout
  • Know how to really study problem
  • Very adverse to losses, already lost their naivete, and won’t reenter without changes
  • (Conseco bonds handled that)
5
ABS and the Markets
  • Tremendous losses
  • Now know the facts and learning more
  • Less risk adverse than GSE’s, but will want similar protections, still perceive many problems
  • Probably will partner with GSE’s, which would provide substantial increased liquidity
  • Both have lost their MH naivete
6
How does this Affect Community Lending?
  • Home depreciation greatest in communities
  • Highest percentage of total repos are in communities and greatest severity
  • Lenders and community owners have not always been friends in downturns or defaults
  • Today lenders highly wary of in-community loans
  • I estimate 100,000 – 125,000 homes of in-community chattel loans not being done at present
7
Depreciation in Communities
is the Enemy
  • High gross – low volume sales model industry standard
  • Comunities as a housing option in given markets
  • Leasehold rents pricing policies in communities
  • Know the rules for pricing your rents
  • what is your competition?  Apts and other housing, other community rents
  • mortgage payment needs, or replacement costs may be inadequate measures for community owners
  • vacancies mean something


8
Measures Industry Lenders Push and Need to Stem Depreciation
  • CAS – Community Attribute System
  • Invoice database, IBTS
  • MHI database
  • Shorter repayment term.
  • Reduced gross profit at sale
  • Better installation performance
  • Better and longer home warranties *
  • Greater resident lease protection
  • MSRP
  • Forming much better resale network
  • TIPS
  • LBP
  • MARI
  • Community Owners/Lenders Agreement

Repossession Rate by Credit Score and Down Payment
23
Private property loans score 600-650
24
Communities loans score 600 – 650
25
 Reason for poor performance
  • Community incentives reduce equity
  • Premature decline in housing Value
  • Value determined by total housing cost
    • Home payment + site rent
    • Relative to alternatives
  • Alternatives = Apartments, site built and other communities
26
Value deterioration
  • Assume site rent at inception       = $300
  • $35,000 home 5% down              = $385
  • Total housing payment            =  $685
  • Alternative site built @ 6%         = $114,000





27
Assume $100 site rent increase


28
Customer Alternatives
  • Can’t sell?
  • Pay higher rent on home with $10,000 less value
    • Pride of ownership declines
    • Real depreciation becomes evident
    • Customers are trapped
    • Only exit is Repossession
29
Lender Solution
  • Limit exposure to only high equity customers and best credit customers
  • Customize plans for certain communities
  • Differentiation among communities

Differentiation Amongst Communities
  • Community Attribute System
    • Attributes have a 1 to 5 weight


  • Separated Into Three Major Categories

    • Home Activity/ Resale Market Attributes


40
Management/ Infrastructure/ Economic Attributes
  • Lot Lease History


  • Vacancy Rate


  • Rent Control


  • Local Attributes (schools, shopping, location, etc…)


  • County Unemployment


  • Comparable Apartments


41
Community Features/ Amenity Attributes
  • Community Appearance


  • Age of Homes


  • Types of homes


  • Community Amenities


42
Home Activity/ Resale Market Attributes
  • Average Selling Price (new and used)

  • Days on Market


  • Resale Market

 MHI Community Agreement
  • Agreement between Community Owner and Lender that explains who is responsible for what in the event of a repossession
47
 MHI Agreement Highlights

  • Lender is allowed 12 months to resale home in  community without paying rent if the community has a vacancy greater than 5%
  • Lender must bring home up to community standards within 60 days
