Manufactured Home Insurance

Protect the manufactured home you live in, visit seasonally or rent out. Tell us how you use it and we request quotes.

A manufactured home can be insured whether you live in it, use it seasonally or rent it out. The dwelling program we use writes manufactured homes after an underwriting review. If no insurer will take the home, the California FAIR Plan writes manufactured homes permanently anchored to a foundation for fire and other named perils.

Who qualifies
Manufactured homes used as a primary home, a seasonal home or a rental, by underwriting review
Programs we use
A specialty dwelling program that writes manufactured homes, and the California FAIR Plan when no insurer will take the home
FAIR Plan rule
The home must be permanently anchored to a foundation, and the FAIR Plan pays fire and other named perils without replacement cost for mobile homes

Our commitment

Committed to doing insurance right, and doing it fast. Our vision: every property and project properly covered in minutes, with every rule followed.

Eight brokers, one team

Our eight brokers work together as one Menlo team, so you can reach a person who understands your account.

Independent brokerage

We hold appointments with multiple carriers, so the quote is shopped rather than served from one shelf.

Start with the home itself

A manufactured home can be insured as an owner, tenant, seasonal or vacation rental home. Start with owner, tenant, shared owner-and-tenant, seasonal or vacation-rental occupancy. The dwelling program documents manufactured homes; its underwriting review determines the available coverage for your home.

  • Home type

    Have the year, manufacturer and home type available.

  • Use and location

    Describe whether the home is a primary residence, seasonal home or rental, and where it is located.

  • Requested protection

    Have the dwelling value, foundation details and prior insurance information ready.

  • A review, not a promise

    Choosing a home type starts a review. Availability depends on the property, location and underwriting.

On the California FAIR Plan

If no insurer will take the home because of wildfire risk, the FAIR Plan dwelling policy is the fallback.

Anchored to a foundation

The FAIR Plan writes mobile and manufactured homes permanently anchored to a foundation. Homes that are not are not eligible.

Questions we get asked

Are all types accepted?

Not every home is accepted, since availability depends on the property, location and underwriting. Selecting a type starts a review and does not confirm eligibility.
