Appraising Manufactured Housing
Manufactured homes are now more similar than ever to that of a stick built home, and can oftentimes possess many, or all, of the attributes of said stick built home.

The second, the home must have permanent connections for utilities. The third item is the County *must* be taxing this structure as real residential property, as opposed to personal property.
