Reply #5: There's not much in the construction of a mobile home that meets

[Rene]

code for a home. They're basically 1x3 construction. thin walls inside etc

I think modular homes are a different story. Neighbors of ours had a total house fire in their little 3 bedroom ranch......the local volunteer 'cellar saver' firemen did their jobs.
House was totalled...if not be the fire, than by all the holes they had to chop in the ceilings and walls.

After the insurance came in....(they'd been planning all the months they were in a rental apartment) they had their 4 sectioned modular home delivered to the site installed within days over the rehabbed existing foundation. All new furniture and appliances and they were set up fabulously.

They wound up with a wonderful 2 story, 4 bedroom farmhouse/colonial with a beautiful porch across the front.....all put together within a few short weeks.
