"I was super pleased with the home inspection performed. Bill was professional and frank about everything the report included and more. I accompanied him during the inspection. He answered all my questions and concerns offering insights and discussing with me possible fixes, recommending local contractors if needed. I ordered the septic inspection, which required locating installation records and returning to the home the following week and a lot of digging to complete the report. During this time I spoke with him several times on the phone with additional concerns. He really went the extra mile at a reasonable cost. Highly recommended."

"I highly recommend Michigan Home Inspectors. We had Bill Baughman as our Inspector and he did an excellent job. Bill was very thorough; nothing was overlooked, even very minor things. He wanted for us to be well informed before buying a house. I recommend them without any hesitation."

"The tech came out to inspect cracked plastic pieces. They said they would order parts. Then I got an email from them saying they were not going to cover those parts. I called the office and spoke with a lady that got real snarky with me. Usually I keep my cool but I lost it with her. I asked for her supervisor and she wouldn't give me one. The tech said I had put too much weight on it to make it crack. I called back and talked to someone else. They said it wasn't the first time they had complaints about the previous lady. They called someone else to come out and inspect. The tech wrote up that is was not too much weight. They ordered parts and replaced. They always come out when I call."

"I purchased a house in Charlevoix and during renovations in the middle of winter learned my roof was in much worse condition than our inspector reported. Green Horizons, and Steve the owner, were extremely responsive and fair and were able to install a beautiful metal roof even during periods of heavy snow. Steve kept absolutely every promise and it was one of the easiest home repair projects I have ever had. Although it was an expensive roof, it looks great and should last for many decades, so I don't regret the cost the least bit."

Most mobile home inspections require two to three hours to complete properly. The timeline varies based on your home's size, age, and overall condition. Inspectors need sufficient time to examine all major systems, document their findings, and compile their observations.
If the inspector discovers concerning issues that warrant deeper investigation, the process may take longer. For the most thorough assessment, try to schedule your inspection during daylight hours when visibility is optimal.
Pay close attention to water damage indicators like ceiling stains, warped flooring, or musty odors. Structural concerns, including uneven floors, sagging rooflines, or doors that won't close properly, suggest potential foundation issues. Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards.
Impromptu modifications or repairs performed without proper permits often signal deeper problems. Windows that don't seal properly may indicate structural shifting or water infiltration.
Yes, professional inspectors evaluate the foundation components and anchoring mechanisms during a thorough assessment. They examine support piers, blocks, and tie-downs for proper installation and condition. The inspection includes checking for appropriate ground clearance and adequate ventilation beneath the home.
Proper anchoring is essential for stability during adverse weather conditions. Foundation issues can affect everything from door alignment to plumbing function, making this a critical part of any comprehensive inspection.
Industry professionals recommend scheduling maintenance inspections every two to three years for manufactured homes. Homes in regions with extreme weather conditions may benefit from more frequent evaluations. Consider arranging an inspection after significant storms or if you notice any unusual changes in your home's condition.
Regular assessments help identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Maintaining documentation of these inspections also provides valuable records for insurance purposes or future sale considerations.
Search for inspectors with certifications from recognized professional organizations in your state. Specialized training or experience with manufactured housing is particularly valuable for these unique structures. Ask potential inspectors about their familiarity with HUD standards for manufactured homes. Professional membership in industry associations often indicates commitment to ongoing education and ethical standards. Request sample reports from prospective inspectors to evaluate their thoroughness and clarity of communication.
Many insurance providers consider inspection results when determining policy rates and coverage terms. A positive report demonstrating well-maintained systems and the absence of hazards may qualify you for better rates. Addressing issues identified during inspection demonstrates proactive maintenance that insurers often reward. Some companies offer specific discounts for homes that meet certain safety and structural standards.
Contact your insurance provider before scheduling an inspection to understand exactly what documentation they require for potential premium reductions.
