Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have additional questions about the foundation certification process?
A Manufactured Home Foundation Certification is often a mandatory requirement for securing financing for a manufactured home. Lenders, including those for FHA, VA, and USDA loans, need confirmation from a professional engineer that the home’s foundation is permanent and meets specific federal HUD standards.
A qualified field inspector, working under the supervision of a licensed professional engineer, will visit your property. They will evaluate the foundation piers, anchoring systems, tie-downs, and drainage to ensure they comply with the Permanent Foundation Guide for Manufactured Housing (HUD-7584). The engineer then reviews the inspector’s findings and issues the official certification.
Our certified field inspector evaluates your foundation piers and anchoring systems, tie-down installation and condition, proper drainage around the foundation, skirting completeness and materials, compliance with HUD spacing requirements, and regional soil considerations. All findings are documented with photographs and measurements, then reviewed by a professional engineer who provides the sealed certification required by lenders.
We understand that time is critical during a home sale or refinancing. Our process is designed for efficiency, and you can typically expect to receive your engineer-sealed Manufactured Home Foundation Certification within 1-2 business days after the on-site inspection.

Foundation certification is a specialized engineering assessment focused solely on whether your manufactured home meets federal HUD standards for permanent installation.
