My wife and I have been Full Time RVrs for 5+ years. We are thinking about buying a stick and brick home and RVing part time. We have a SD PMB that shows on our driver's licence and no permanent physical address. We have money invested at Vanguard, Fidelity, and a couple other brokerages and we have quite a few credit cards and bank accounts. With mortgage rates as low as they are right now, we would like to get pre-approved for a mortgage before we look at potential homes. None of the institutions we already have accounts with would be a place for us to obtain a mortgage. Actually we do have a Chase credit card, but I don't think that will help.
Last year we tried to open a savings account at a bank that offered better than average interest and they said they could not open the account for us because we did not have a permanent address. They needed utility bills or other proof showing where we actually lived. I explained our lifestyle to no avail. If banks won't hold our savings, are they are not going to approve a loan for us? I am hoping someone who dealt with this, and is still on the forum, can offer some advice. Thank you in advance. Jim |

Hi Jim, I understand you very well, because without a permanent place of residence it is almost impossible to take out a loan, since banks need your address if a person is not going to pay off the loan and they can take real estate as collateral. If you want to take out a mortgage, it is best to contact a local mortgage consultant or consult on the mortgage account at the bank where you want to apply for a mortgage. When I took out a mortgage to buy an apartment for my son, I did not have the opportunity to personally consult with the bank about this, so I used the services of Mortgage Advisor London. After consulting with a person who understands this, it will become much easier for you to take out a mortgage. I wish you good luck and I hope that you will succeed!
