About Mobile Home Tie Down Inspections

What Is It?

A mobile home tie down is a metal strap that comes from the footings of the structure and wraps into the structure of the mobile home. This prevents uplift of the mobile home during a high wind event.

The History

Since hurricane Andrew, policies on mobile home tie downs have become much more strict to prohibit future damage.

Why Do I Need It?

It is quite common for these tie downs to become damaged and corroded overtime. Moreover, they could also be improperly installed. This is why FHA and VA mortgage loans require inspections on mobile home tie downs.

Governance

Permanent Foundation Guide for Manufactured Housing; September, 1996. If you have further questions on the specific requirements of the mobile home tie-downs, you can visit HUD.gov.

How Do We Inspect Your Mobile Home Tie Down?

An inspector on a mobile home tie down inspection will look for and may report on the following:

Soil Conditions
Elevation
Home Information (Year, Type, HUD Label, Etc)

I had a great experience with Waypoint! Laurie was so patient and worked diligently with my builder to make sure we were scheduled! We had a last minute rescheduling due to the home not being complete and Laurie sprung into action and coordinated the inspection for the following business day. Jeff, our inspector, was fantastic and very thorough in the home! Caught quite a bit of things we did not catch during our walkthrough. I am planning on using them again for our 11 month inspection.

I was in need of an inspector who could cover all my inspections at once. They were able to accommodate within a 24 hour notice and the inspector Jeffery was prompt, thorough, and answered any questions or concerns I had. I was sent a report of the inspection same day. I also had a couple follow up questions after the inspection which were taken care of immediately. I will be using them again for future properties.

On June 9,2022, as a first time homebuyer I tried my best to consider everything when buying a new home. Waypoint came highly recommended so I gave them a try. Needless to say, it was the best decision. My inspector was Jeff G. On the day of my inspection it had been raining off and on. My appt was at 1 but by the time is arrived Jeff shared he decided to get an earlier start while the storm was on pause to get on top of the roof. He was 1/2 way through by that time. He was patient as he walked my husband and I throughout the house giving us a thorough review and breakdown on recommendations for the builder. I would definitely recommend their services.

Highly recommend!I hired Waypoint to do an inspection on my home and they went above and beyond. I was able to set up an appointment quickly and easily. My appointment was confirmed the day prior, to be sure I didn't forget. Eddie arrived promptly & on time. He was very friendly and professional. Eddie explained what he would need to do, advised me about the issues he found and let me know how quickly I could expect my formal reports to be emailed to me. I was even able to get prompt answers after the inspection for those random questions we all come up with after the fact. The whole process was easy breezy! Very happy, Thank you Waypoint. 🙂

Waypoint was very accommodating to my schedule. Like many others, my homeowners insurance is about to be canceled. They worked with me to get an inspector out to perform the wind mitigation inspection on my roof for insurance purposes. The gentleman that came out was very nice and he was extremely professional. He also arrived on time. He followed up with me when he was complete with the inspection and asked if I had any questions. I received my report via email the same day for my insurance company. Additionally I received a text message the day following asking if I had questions.I would definitely recommend them and if I am in need of the services they offer in the future, will definitely utilize them.
