Mobile and Manufactured Homes
At Pacific Inspection Services, our inspection of Mobile and
Manufactured Homes includes all of the components which are inspected
on a conventional residence, (see a list of these by selecting
"Residential Properties" from our home page).
If the home is located inside the
boundaries of a mobile home park, our inspection also addresses many of the
Health & Safety Requirements of the California
Department of Housing and Community Development (H.C.D.).
Many mobile home parks are REQUIRING an inspection of these H.C.D.
Health & Safety concerns because of recent legislation which calls
for "full disclosure" during the ownership transfer of a
mobile/manufactured home. H.C.D. no longer performs inspections
during transfer of sale, they have turned that over to the private
industry.
Below is as
Sample Mobile Home Inspection Report. Due to the nature of the title
"HEALTH & SAFETY", it is obvious that these type
inspections are important. However, they are important from
another standpoint as well. Unlike conventional homes, State
Inspectors (employees of H.C.D.), can come on to your lot at any time
and perform an inspection of your mobile/manufactured home, (current
law says that these inspections must be done every 5 years). If
a citation is issued as a result of a State Inspection, it is up to
the current owner of the home to pay for corrections, even if they
bought the home in that condition.
We are NOT "State
Inspectors" and do not work for the State of California.
However, as a courtesy we include inspection of many Health & Safety concerns for the
protection of our clients. |
