Manufactured & Mobile Homes Appraisals
Real property and chattel manufactured housing, including FEMA and park-model assignments.
Real estate appraisal is a state-licensed activity. NextPhase holds Arizona certification, so real property assignments are limited to Arizona. If you need real property valued in another state, call anyway — we will point you to a qualified appraiser there.
What drives the number
Manufactured housing is declined by a great many residential appraisers, which is precisely why it is worth doing well. Whether the home is titled as real property or remains chattel changes the assignment fundamentally, and getting that wrong invalidates the report.
Commonly appraised
- HUD-code manufactured homes
- Park models and RV-classified units
- Chattel and personal property titled
- Permanently affixed on owned land
- Leased-lot and community sited
- FEMA and disaster-related
What we'll need from you
- HUD label or data plate numbers if available
- Whether the home is titled real property or chattel
- Serial or VIN number
- Whether the land is owned or leased
- Foundation type and any permanent affixation documentation
Chattel and FEMA manufactured housing assignments are a documented specialty here, including work already prepared to FEMA and SISD templates.

Common questions
Do you appraise real estate outside Arizona?
No. Real estate appraisal is a state-licensed activity and NextPhase holds Arizona certification. Personal property and business valuation carry no such restriction and are handled nationwide and internationally. If you need real property valued in another state, call anyway — we will point you to someone qualified there.
How is this different from a Zestimate or a realtor's CMA?
An automated estimate is a statistical guess with no inspection and no liability behind it. A CMA is a marketing opinion from someone holding a commission. An appraisal is an independent USPAP-compliant opinion from a licensed professional who inspected the property and can defend the conclusion under cross-examination.
Can you appraise as of a date in the past?
Yes. Retrospective appraisals are routine for estate and date-of-death work, divorce with a stipulated valuation date, insurance losses, and tax matters.
Do you handle manufactured and mobile homes?
Yes, including chattel and FEMA-related assignments — work many residential appraisers decline. FHA/HUD approved since 2006.
