Full or limited warranties should also be provided by the manufacturer for the appliances in the home. If the manufacturers' warranty excludes coverage of installation and transportation, be sure that your manufactured home dealer or contractor usually offer written warranties on these services. Be sure you recognize the difference between the manufacturer's, and the retailer's, responsibilities in setting up and servicing your home. Before buying a home, make sure the warranties and the services they offer are satisfactory to you. Even if your home and some of its appliances do not have a written warranty, you, as the buyer have implied warranties under state laws which require a home, and its appliances to work properly.
Some states have special laws to protect manufactured homes owners.
Also, the Federal Trade Commission has authority to issue additional requirements under the federal warranty law. Besides the warranties, every buyer should be issued a manual with the purchase of a new manufactured home.
