MOBILE HOME
Protection that's specific to your home
Mobile home insurance is similar to homeowners insurance, but instead you get specialized coverage for your factory-built home. Whether you need manufactured home insurance or modular home insurance, we can customize to meet the needs of your property.

May be on a permanent foundation instead of being tied down
Can be placed on a basement or crawlspace

Manufactured to satisfy local and state building codes
Manufactured home characteristics
Constructed on a movable steel chassis with just one level
Manufactured in sections and transported to the building site on wheels
Typically less expensive per square foot than site-built homes

Manufactured homes and mobile homes are both regulated by HUD, the Housing and Urban Development division of the federal government. According to HUD, a factory-built home prior to June 15, 1976 is a mobile home and one built after June 15, 1976 is a manufactured home.

Modular vs. Mobile
Modular homes are also built in factories and then installed on site, but the similarities start to fade after that. They must comply with whatever local building codes are in effect for that state and county few characteristics in common:
Often delivered in two or more pieces
Typically built on crawlspaces or basements
Usually look like traditional “stick-built” homes in size and features
TIPS
How is the home built? Know the basic details about your home’s construction, including the year it was built, square footage, and whether it’s considered manufactured or modular.
Is your home currently insured? If so, tell us your provider and how long you’ve had coverage.
Do you need special coverage, like flood insurance?
Do you escrow or pay separately?

Still not sure what type of home is yours modular vs mobile?
Look for a tag. Mobile and manufactured homes typically require a tag with renewal each year because they can be moved or relocated.

What does a mobile home insurance policy cover?
Standard coverages
Coverage for the structure of your mobile home.
Your mobile home policy helps protect your mobile home and structures you own that are on the same piece of land as the home but are not attached to it (such as a shed or detached garage), from all forms of loss unless they are specifically excluded in the policy.
Coverage is provided for a wide range of perils including, but not limited to fire, windstorm damage, damage from falling objects, lightning, explosion, and more. In most cases, a regular mobile home policy will not cover your mobile home while it's being moved.
Protection for your personal effects
Your policy also includes protection against a wide range of perils for your personal property, whether it's inside the mobile home or in an adjacent structure like a shed. Personal property coverage also applies while your property is away from your home, but with a lower maximum limit and a smaller range of perils insured against.

Personal liability protection.
In cartoons all you have to do to keep people from slipping and falling is to make sure there are no rogue banana peels lying around. Unfortunately, accidents can happen in the real world and, if you unintentionally cause bodily injury or property damage to someone who doesn't live in your home, you could be faced with large, out-of-pocket expenses due to court costs or damages.

Your policy can pay for the medical expenses of someone who does not live in your home in addition to the damages or defense costs due to a covered accidental circumstance.
