Our philosophy is to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public through the management of the design and the construction of all types of housing produced off-site. We strive to provide quality service to our stakeholders as we respond to their questions and submittals in a timely manner while maintaining an understanding of current codes, construction methods and materials, and innovations within the manufactured home, modular home and recreational vehicle industries.
The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Manufactured Home Act (Act) regulates the construction of all manufactured (mobile) homes built in the United States. This HUD Act also oversees the enforcement of the construction standards through public and private plan review and inspection agencies. HUD accepts the State of Nebraska’s manufactured home plan review, factory inspection and consumer complaint assistance.
If you are a manufacturer of manufactured homes within the State of Nebraska please be aware that the State of Nebraska is an “exclusive” factory inspection agency (IPIA) thus all manufacturers within the State of Nebraska are required to utilize the State of Nebraska IPIA services.
