ENGINEER CERTIFICATION FOR MANUFACTURED HOMES

When you finance the purchase of a manufactured home, your lender will require an engineer certification for manufactured homes. The home must be inspected for adherence to HUD guidelines for all FHA/VA insured loans. Many conventional lenders also require an engineer certification for manufactured homes on conventional loans too.
