Mobile Home Tie-Down Certifications You Can Trust
A Mobile Home Tie-Down Certification is often required by homeowners’ insurance companies and is commonly needed when securing FHA or VA financing. This inspection evaluates the tie-down system located underneath the home, ensuring that the foundation anchoring is properly installed, structurally sound, and compliant with current safety standards.
During the inspection, we check the metal straps that anchor the home into the concrete footers and attach to the metal frame—designed to help protect the structure during high winds and severe weather.

Common Mobile Home Tie-Down Certification Questions
Homeowners obtaining new insurance on a manufactured home typically need this inspection. FHA and VA lenders also require a certified tie-down report when financing or refinancing a mobile home.
Since manufactured homes face increased wind exposure, insurers want to verify the anchoring system is properly installed to help minimize storm-related risks.
We check anchors, straps, frame connections, spacing requirements, corrosion, damage, and compliance with current HUD and lender guidelines.
Most tie-down inspections take 30–45 minutes depending on accessibility beneath the home.
