Manufactured homes can be listed in Flexmls if they meet specific conditions according to ARMLS Rules. 1) If the home is affixed to the land (obtained by an Affidavit of Affixture), or 2) If it is unaffixed and located in a mobile home park. This is in accordance with the Arizona Department of Housing (ADOH) licensing exception.
What is a Manufactured Home?
Manufactured homes, also known as mobile homes, are built on wheels and transported to their site where they are connected to utilities. To list a manufactured home in Flexmls, it must:
