Mobile & Manufactured

A Specialized Inspection for a Unique Type of Home

Manufactured and mobile homes are built differently than site-built houses — and they need a specialized inspection to match. At Inspect360, we provide HUD-compliant inspections that focus on the safety, structure, and function of your home. Whether you’re buying, selling, or financing, we help ensure your home meets both industry and lender requirements.

What Makes a “Full Circle” Manufactured Home Inspection Different

Unlike traditional homes, manufactured and modular homes are built in sections, transported, and then anchored or supported on-site. That means inspectors must understand unique systems like:

  • Foundation & Tie-Downs – We check for proper anchoring, pier spacing, and stabilizing components that keep your home secure.

  • Roof & Structure – We inspect for leaks, panel separation, sagging, or frame damage that can occur during transport or setup.

  • Plumbing Systems – We check connections, supports, and materials commonly used in factory-built installations.

  • Electrical Systems – We verify safe grounding, proper breaker sizing, and compliance with HUD electrical standards.

  • Heating & Cooling – We assess ductwork, ventilation, and overall system condition for efficiency and safety.

Each system is evaluated for safety, function, and longevity, so you know exactly what condition the home is in before moving forward and moving you and/or your family in.

HUD-Compliant and Experience-Backed

Our inspections meet the standards set forth by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and are designed to align with lender and insurance requirements.

Common Question!

What’s the difference between mobile and manufactured?

Well really, there’s mobile, manufactured and modular.

They are really all confused and wrongly used interchangeably!

Mobile Home:
A mobile home is a factory-built home constructed before June 15, 1976, prior to federal HUD standards. These homes were built on metal frames for transport and often lack the structural and safety upgrades required in modern homes.

Most “mobile homes” do not exist anymore. These are really closer to RV’s and Campers (and some tiny homes)

Manufactured Home:
A manufactured home is built after June 15, 1976, under strict HUD Code regulations that govern safety, design, and energy efficiency. It’s typically placed on a permanent foundation or frame and includes a HUD certification label.

Modular Home:
A modular home is built in factory sections to state and local building codes, not HUD standards. Once transported to the site, it’s assembled on a permanent foundation—making it nearly indistinguishable from a traditional, site-built home once completed.
