QUESTIONS / MISSOURI

Common questions.

What lenders, underwriters, and buyers ask about FHA files on Missouri properties.

FAQ 01Does Missouri require a PE for FHA manufactured home inspections?

Yes. FHA underwriting requires the structural certification to come from a state-licensed professional engineer. Every Scapular report carries a Missouri PE seal valid for properties in Missouri.

FAQ 02How does Missouri title cancellation work for a manufactured home?

Missouri requires the manufacturer's certificate of origin or existing title to be surrendered to the Department of Revenue, a PE-sealed foundation certification, and a recorded Affidavit of Affixation at the county recorder. We handle the engineering side; your title company handles the DOR filing.

FAQ 03Is Alumiconn certification available outside of St. Louis?

The Alumiconn certification service is currently limited to St. Louis County and St. Charles County. For manufactured home structural, FHA, and PFGMH inspections, we serve all of Missouri statewide.

Recording in Missouri: In Missouri, PFGMH affidavits of affixation are recorded at the county recorder of deeds office. The Missouri Department of Revenue handles title cancellation for homes being converted to real property.
