HUD Foundation Certifications for Manufactured Homes
When financing, buying, or refinancing a manufactured home, lenders often require one or more HUD Engineering Certifications. These certifications are designed to verify that the home meets safety and structural requirements set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
At MI Homes North Inspections, we offer streamlined HUD Certification Inspections across Northern Michigan to help you meet these requirements without delays.

Permanent Foundation & Addition Certifications for Manufactured Homes
What We Offer
We provide inspections and reports for the following HUD certifications:
HUD Permanent Foundation Certification
Confirms that the home is permanently affixed to a compliant support and tie-down system. We also assess the drainage around the foundation to ensure the crawlspace or basement is not at risk of flooding.
HUD Additions Certification
Evaluates any structures added to the home—such as porches, decks, garages, roof overhangs, or sheds. HUD guidelines require that these additions must be independently supported and must not rely on the home’s structure for support.
How the Process Works
Our process is designed to be simple and fast:
One of our trained inspectors will visit the property to gather documentation and photos of the home’s foundation and any relevant structural features.
This data is reviewed by a state-licensed structural engineer who specializes in HUD compliance for manufactured housing.
Once the engineer completes the review—typically within 1–2 business days—we’ll provide you with an official report and certification.
We partner with engineering professionals experienced in HUD standards to ensure fast turnaround times and accurate results.
Fast Turnaround. Clear Reports. Local Experts.
We understand the urgency that often surrounds real estate transactions. That’s why our team works quickly to schedule the inspection and deliver results—usually within 1-2 business days—so your closing process stays on track.
