What type of renovations can lead to a manufactured home being deemed ineligible?

Renovations completed without a licensed contractor can lead to a manufactured home being deemed ineligible primarily because these types of renovations often do not meet specific industry standards or local building codes. Licensed contractors are required to adhere to safety regulations, quality standards, and legal requirements during any construction or renovation.

If renovations are performed without the oversight of a qualified professional, there may be an increased risk of poor workmanship or code violations, which can compromise the safety and structural integrity of the home. Additionally, lenders and insurance companies often look for homes to comply with certain regulations and standards; if renovations are unverified and not up to code, this could impede the eligibility for loans or insurance coverage.

In contrast, renovations that have undergone proper channels, including licensing and inspections, are more likely to enhance a home's value while ensuring compliance with safety standards.
