How To Buy A Manufactured Home - Buying A Home - The Retailer's Warranty

A retailer may offer a warranty on a home. Ask to see the retailer's warranty in writing before buying a home. While retailer warranties vary, they typically include:
  • The terms of the warranty;
  • What you must do to keep the warranty in effect;
  • What you can reasonably expect from the retailer; and
  • That the home has been installed according to manufacturer installation instructions and local regulations.
Retailer warranties do not cover problems that arise from:
  • Owner negligence;
  • Failure by the owner to provide notice for service; and
  • Unauthorized repairs.
