Mobile and manufactured home insurance

Manufactured homes face unique risks, particularly wind exposure, that standard homeowners policies don't fully address. We help you find coverage built for the structure type. South Florida's manufactured home communities, from Homestead to parts of Miami-Dade and Broward, sit in some of the state's highest wind and flood exposure zones, making the right anchoring and windstorm coverage especially important.

Coverage details depend on the carrier, selected policy, applicable state laws, underwriting criteria, and specific exclusions. This content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal or financial advice. Contact us to review your options.

What it may cover

  • Dwelling coverage for the manufactured or mobile home structure
  • Personal property inside the home
  • Liability if someone is injured on the property
  • Tie-down and anchoring related wind damage provisions
  • Loss of use if the home becomes uninhabitable
  • Carport, shed, and Florida room attachments in many policies

Who it's for

  • Owners of manufactured or mobile homes on owned or leased land
  • Residents of manufactured home communities
  • Buyers financing a manufactured home purchase
  • Snowbirds who own a manufactured home in Florida seasonally

Why it matters

Manufactured homes have different construction standards and wind vulnerability than site-built homes, which carriers underwrite differently. A policy designed for the structure type closes gaps a standard policy would miss, and in a hurricane-exposed market like Miami-Dade, proper tie-down documentation can directly affect both eligibility and claims outcomes.
