What do local regulations often dictate based on the home’s classification?

Local regulations often dictate placement and installation based on the home’s classification because different types of manufactured homes, such as single-section or multi-section units, may have specific requirements regarding where they can be located and how they should be installed. This includes considerations for safety, zoning laws, and community standards. For example, some areas may require manufactured homes to be placed on permanent foundations, while others might have setbacks that dictate how far away the home must be from property lines. These regulations ensure that homes are installed correctly and securely, contributing to overall community planning and safety.
