Mobile Home Foundation & Tie-Down Inspection & Certification for Closing

Realtors and sellers: if a foundation, tie-down, strap, or anchor issue is holding up your manufactured-home closing, we fix it fast and provide the official certification your lender and title company need. The underside of a manufactured home — the piers, beams, and anchoring — is the foundation system, and it’s exactly what we specialize in: foundations, tie-downs, and hurricane prevention. Affordable MHS is a Florida state-licensed contractor serving Naples to Tampa, and only a licensed pro can perform and sign the official inspection. We move on your closing timeline, not ours.

For Realtors on a Deadline

You found the buyer, you’re at the table, and the inspection flags the tie-downs. Don’t let the deal die. Here’s how we keep your closing on track:

• Fast scheduling. We know closings have hard dates. Call us and we prioritize deals on a timeline.
• Licensed inspection + certification. We perform the official tie-down inspection and provide the signed documentation your lender, title company, or the buyer’s insurer requires. Most contractors can’t sign it — we can.
• We fix what’s flagged. Loose or missing anchors, corroded straps, foundation issues, tie-downs out of code — we bring it to Florida code (FAC 15C-1) and certify it.
• We keep you posted. You’ll know the inspection result, the estimate, and the completion date at every step, so you can manage your client and the timeline.

What We Fix to Get You to Closing

• Tie-downs, straps & anchors — replaced or added to meet Florida wind-zone code
• Foundation & pier re-enforcement — the #1 closing flag on older homes
• Skirting repair and replacement
• Pre-sale inspections so sellers fix issues before they ever hit the buyer’s report
• Re-leveling — sticking doors and uneven floors that scare buyers

Selling a Mobile Home? Inspect Before You List

The smartest sellers get a free pre-listing inspection from us first. We find and fix the tie-down and foundation issues that would otherwise surface in the buyer’s inspection and blow up your timeline (or your price). Fix it on your schedule, not under closing pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you inspect and certify tie-downs for a closing?

Call us with your closing date and we prioritize it. In most of SW Florida we can inspect within days and complete repairs quickly, with certification provided as soon as the work passes.

Who can sign an official mobile home tie-down inspection?

Only a Florida state-licensed installer can perform and sign the official tie-down inspection (FAC 15C-1). Affordable MHS is licensed — we handle both the repair and the certification, so you don’t need two vendors.

The buyer’s lender or insurer requires tie-down certification. Can you provide it?

Yes. We provide the signed tie-down inspection documentation lenders, title companies, and insurers require to close on a manufactured or mobile home.

What does it cost?

Inspections are free. Most tie-down repairs run under $2,000 and take less than a day — you get an exact written estimate before any work starts.

Do you work with realtors directly?

Absolutely. We coordinate with agents, sellers, title companies, and lenders to keep closings on track, and we keep you updated at every step. Save our number: 941-888-4804.
