Mobile home loans fastest growing bank installment item
The American Bankers Association reports mobile home loans were the fastest growing segment of bank installment loans in 1972. Nearly 10 percent of the $60 million in loans were in mobile homes, driven by lower per square foot costs than conventional housing. The ABA notes mobile homes account for 20 percent of single family housing and 75 percent of homes under $20,000, predicting the mobile home population rising from 7 million to 20 million in the next decade.
