Do Home Inspectors inspect Mobile Homes or Manufactured Buildings?

If so, I will appreciate some input to be added to my presentations for NACHI.

Question: What's Wrong Here?

It depends on the area Joe, but in my area you’re giving away a good portion of business if you don’t inspect mobile homes. What kind of stuff do you need?

I will look forward to downloading them. Close ups work well in Power Point.

Hey Joe,


These are all from a mobile. Would you rather have the originals (higher resolution)?

I've done a few mobile homes so far this year. I'll look through my images and send you anything of note.

Joe,


You most likely know this by now, but here in NJ the mobile homes are "pre" inspected by the state. The state sticks a label on mobile homes and it falls out of our control. Now I am talking about electrical inspections, I am not sure about home inspectors after the house is sold to another owner.
