Certified manufactured and mobile home inspections
Manufactured and mobile homes are built, installed and regulated differently from site-built houses — so they deserve an inspector trained in how they are built. Certified inspections statewide, in parks and on private land.
✓Support, anchoring & underfloorWhy a specialist matters
Built differently, so inspected differently
Manufactured homes are factory-built to the federal HUD Code and, in California, are overseen by the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Their weak points are not the same as a site-built house: the support and anchoring system, the underfloor, the marriage line between sections and the add-on structures built after installation are where problems hide.
Our certified manufactured home inspectors know where to look — and they document what they find in the same clear, severity-ranked report we deliver for every inspection.

Common questions
Answers before you book
What is the difference between a mobile home and a manufactured home?
Factory-built homes constructed to the federal HUD Code, which took effect on June 15, 1976, are manufactured homes. Homes built before that date are generally called mobile homes. Both are factory-built and transportable, and both are inspected differently from a site-built house.
Do you inspect homes in mobile home parks and on private land?
Yes. We inspect manufactured and mobile homes in parks and communities and on private land throughout California, for buyers, sellers, owners, park operators and investors.
Can you provide the foundation certification a lender requires?
Foundation certifications required for some FHA and VA loans must be issued by a licensed engineer. We inspect and document the support and anchoring system and tell you plainly what the lender's engineer is likely to look at.
How long does a manufactured home inspection take?
Most single- and multi-section homes take two to three hours, including the crawlspace and underfloor areas where they are accessible. You receive a photo-documented report within 24 hours.
How much does it cost?
We quote a flat fee in writing before scheduling, based on the size, number of sections and any add-on structures. Call (213) 536-9392 for a quote.
