Manufactured home definition

Manufactured home means a structure, transportable in one or more sections, which is built on a permanent chassis and is designed for use with or without a permanent foundation when attached to the required utilities. The term "manufactured home" does not include a "recreational vehicle".
Manufactured home. A single family residential unit that is constructed in a factory in sections in accordance with the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards adopted on July 15, 1976, by the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD Code"), as amended in 2000, which preempts state and local building codes. Each unit is identified by the presence of a HUD Plate/Compliance Certificate label. The sections are then transported to the site and joined together and affixed to a pre-built permanent foundation (which satisfies the manufacturer's requirements and all state, county, and local building codes and regulations). The manufactured home is built on a non-removable, permanent frame chassis that supports the complete unit of walls, floors, and roof. The underneath part of the home may have running gear (wheels, axles, and brakes) that enable it to be transported to the permanent site. The wheels and hitch are removed prior to anchoring the unit to the permanent foundation. The manufactured home must be classified as real estate and taxed accordingly. The permanent foundation may be on land owned by the mortgager or may be on leased land.
Manufactured home means a structure, transportable in 1 or more sections, which, in the traveling mode, is 8 body feet or more in width or 40 body feet or more in length, or when erected on site, is 320 or more square feet, and which is built on a permanent chassis and designed to be used as a dwelling with or without a permanent foundation when connected to the required utilities, and includes the plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, and electrical systems contained therein. The term includes any structure that meets all of the requirements of this paragraph except the size requirements and with respect to which the manufacturer voluntarily files a certification required by the secretary of the department of housing and urban development and complies with the standards established under title 42 of the United States Code.
