The perfect foundation


The Michigan Manufactured Housing Association (MMHA) is often asked this question: Can I place a manufactured home onto a basement?

The answer, in short: yes!

Basements not only provide a strong structural support system for manufactured homes, but they add extra storage space that can be turned into bedrooms, game rooms or even a storage space for outdoor equipment.

Manufactured homes can be placed within land-lease communities and on private property. If you’re interested in placing a home on a basement or crawl space, look to private property placement. Typically, in land-lease communities, basements are not allowed as they are not standard features of a home.

In order to place a manufactured home onto a basement, the home will need to be customized. To search for manufactured home retailers for private land, click here.

However, before purchasing private property or a home, be sure to follow the suggestions from the “Placing your manufactured home on private property” blog post. This will walk you through the necessary steps to ensure a seamless process. In addition, visit the MMHA Facebook page and view the Facebook Live video on private property placement.
