McGarry and Madsen Inspection
mobile homes are
different
Mobile homes are not the same as regular houses. They are built under a different nationwide HUD building code, have a different type of tie-down foundation, and unique electrical and HVAC systems. Most home inspectors don't know much about them, and some won't even inspect a mobile home.
If you are buying a used mobile home, don’t
have a lot of money, and can’t afford to make a
mistake—then it's important to find an inspector
that really understands what they are looking
at. When you choose McGarry and Madsen to
inspect your future manufactured home you get
a team inspection by two licensed building contractors and home
inspectors, and a detailed report with
photos to help you make your buying
decision.
We are mobile home specialists and
have evaluated over 1800 manufactured
homes in Florida, done extensive
research into HUD standards, completed
the Mobile Home Installers course offered by the Mobile Home Division of the State of Florida Department of Transportation, and are familiar with the recurring issues in mobile homes as they age.
Homes outside of our normal service area of a 20-mile distance from our location in south Marion County will incur a travel charge. Call (352) 494-2437 for price quote and our earliest appointment time.
