Vanderbilt Mortgage Introduces Commercial Lending Division

Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance, Inc., a Berkshire Hathaway company, is launching a new Commercial Lending Division.

The national home lender previously originated loans exclusively for consumer manufactured housing, but now it is expanding its operations to include lending to land-lease communities (manufactured housing communities and parks). Vanderbilt will offer commercial financing in select states, with a focus on making loans in the $1 million to $5 million range.

“Manufactured housing is providing a solution to the affordable housing crisis,” said Eric Hamilton, President of Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance, Inc. “We are very excited to launch this division which will help owners of land-lease communities provide more access to high-quality, low-cost housing options.”

Since Vanderbilt will be serving as a portfolio lender and servicing the loans it originates, the company is able to provide flexible lending options for its commercial customers.

“We’re dedicated to providing flexible financing options for land-lease communities,” said Kurt Wilkerson, Director of Commercial Lending for Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance. “As a portfolio lender, we have more flexibility to help our customers find financing that fits their needs.”
