How is a mobile home classified under the NFIP definition of a building?

As a temporary structure
It is not classified as a building
Must be built on a permanent chassis
Only if it is located in a high-risk zone

The correct answer is: Must be built on a permanent chassis

According to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), a mobile home is classified as a building if it meets the following criteria it must have a permanent chassis, must be designed to be used as a dwelling on a long-term basis, and must be able to be transported on its own wheels or via a removable trailer. This means that options A and B are incorrect as they do not include the requirement of a permanent chassis. Option D is also incorrect as the location of a mobile home does not determine its classification as a building; rather, it is the specific characteristics of the mobile home that determine its classification.
