Mobile Home and Manufactured Home Repairs

When planning to buy a mobile home or manufactured home, it is highly recommended that you obtain a health and safety inspection before closing escrow. From the exterior, a used mobile or manufactured home may appear to be in excellent condition. The real concern, however, lies in what you cannot see.

We have many examples of new homeowners who chose not to have an inspection, only to discover shortly after moving in that the home needed major repairs, such as complete plumbing replacement or a new roof. These types of repairs can quickly add up to thousands of dollars. Replumbing an entire mobile home can cost anywhere from $2,500 to $6,000, depending on the scope of work, and a new roof can be just as expensive, if not more. These unseen issues are precisely why having a professional mobile or manufactured home inspector review the property before making a final decision is so important.

So what happens after you receive a home inspection and there is a long list of repairs needed? Who pays for the repairs, and how much will they cost? This is exactly why more buyers and sellers choose our manufactured home inspection services over our competition. Our inspection reports include photos of all repairs required to bring the home up to Title 25 health and safety standards. Alongside each photo, we provide an estimated cost of repair. These estimates are critical when negotiating the final sale price of a home. We are the only mobile home inspection company that includes estimated repair costs in the inspection report, which is one of the reasons mobile home agents continue to rely on our services.

Once you receive your inspection report with photos and estimated repair costs, the next question is often where to find a contractor to complete the work. Once again, this is where our company stands apart. We are licensed mobile home specialists who can perform all the repairs outlined in the report, at the same estimated costs provided in the inspection. In many cases, we are able to complete the repairs before escrow closes. Mobile home sales professionals repeatedly request our services because we deliver inspections and reports efficiently and on schedule.

As an added value, we also offer mobile home buyers a complimentary remodeling estimate. For example, if you are considering purchasing a mobile home but want to know the cost to demolish and install a brand-new kitchen, replace carpet with laminate flooring, or upgrade interior finishes, we can help. Many buyers choose to drywall over existing panel walls, add crown molding, or install recessed lighting. We provide free estimates for these improvements before you make your purchase decision, giving you greater confidence and clarity moving forward.
