Manufactured and modular home apraisals

Don't hire just any Las Vegas appraiser from the phone book or an online directory to do your Clark County and southern Nevada manufactured home appraisal. Manufactured homes -- mobile homes -- as well as modular homes require different methods, different forms and a different approach. At Appraisers of Las Vegas, we have the experience to render a reliable, profesional opinion of value on manufactured and modular homes.

A manufactured home is a single or multi-sectional home built on a permanent frame, like a steel undercarriage/chassis, with a removable transportation system (hitch and wheels). The unit is permanently attached to a site-built foundation and is subject to the 1976 federal standards established by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

A modular home is constructed in a factory using conventional home floor joists and delivered to a site on a trailer or flat bed truck. The delivered home may be in the form of panels that are assembled at the site, may be pre-cut and assembled on site, or may be pre-built and delivered in one piece. The home, panels or pre-cut panels are lifted from the trailer and attached to a foundation. A modular home may be single or multi-storied. Modular homes are not subject to HUD standards, but must be built to state and local Uniform Building Codes.

Because of the different, and complex, standards for evaluating this type of home/construction, you need to make sure your appraisal company has the experience and expertise to get it right quickly and the first time. Contact Appraisers of Las Vegas for a competitive bid and a fast turnaround time.
