What is a Manufactured Home as defined by FEMA 480?

  1. Any building not permanently fixed to a location

  2. A temporary structure used for FEMA offices

  3. A transportable building designed for use with a permanent foundation

  4. A non-mobile, permanent house

The correct answer is: A transportable building designed for use with a permanent foundation

A This option may seem tempting since it mentions that the building is not permanently fixed, but this definition is too broad. FEMA 480 specifically defines a Manufactured Home as a transportable building designed for use with a permanent foundation. B: This option is incorrect because it only mentions a temporary structure, which does not align with the definition of a Manufactured Home. D: This option is incorrect because it mentions that the home is non-mobile, which is not a defining characteristic of a Manufactured Home.
