Manufactured Home Foundation Certifications

Manufactured Home Foundation CertificationsIf you are selling or buying a manufactured home, then most likely a foundation certification will be required. For all FHA and VA loans, an engineer's foundation certification is required that states that the home is placed on a permanent foundation that complies with the "HUD Permanent Foundation Guide for Manufactured Homes", dated 1996 by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Kettle Moraine Home Inspections, LLC has partnered with the engineers at Foundation Certifications to provide a turn-key foundation certification service to you. You may place your order online by going to https://www.FoundationCerts.com/order.
