Abstract: The Federal Standards and Procedural Regulations require manufactured home producers to place labels and notices in and on manufactured homes and mandate State and Private agencies participating in the Federal program to issue reports. These Standards protect homebuyers' interests by requiring certain features of design and construction. In addition, information collected assists both HUD and State Agencies in locating manufactured homes with defects to ensure notification and/or correction by the manufacturer.
