What Is a Permanent Foundation Certification?

A Permanent Foundation Certification is a written engineering certification confirming that a manufactured home foundation meets HUD, FHA, VA, and other applicable national guidelines. The certification verifies that the home is properly supported, anchored, and installed on a qualifying permanent foundation system.

This certification is typically required for:

• FHA loans

• VA loans

• Certain conventional loan programs

• Refinancing or resale of manufactured homes
