Mobile, Manufactured, and Modular Homes: What’s the Difference?

Mobile, manufactured, and modular homes are all built at the factories rather than at the construction sites. The differences between mobile and modular homes can be challenging to understand for someone who has never seen them before. Mobile homes are designed on a single level to easily be transported on wheels or frames; these buildings do include permanent fixtures like plumbing pipes or electrical circuits inside the body of their construction.

A Manufactured Home specially used for Accessory Dwelling units typically sits directly upon concrete slabs, which serve as its foundation. This type may have multiple floors, like an ordinary home. When purchasing a manufactured home, it gets assembled in your property as a shed does, or it gets delivered already built with a crane to set it on its foundation.

Due to their unique construction and vulnerability to particular weather such as windstorms, manufactured and mobile homes don’t qualify for traditional homeowners insurance. Instead, it would be best if you looked into mobile home insurance.
