Common questions
Does the report guarantee the loan?
No. It documents the structure after the move. The lender reviews the whole file and decides whether the home and the loan qualify.
Is it the same as a foundation certification?
Not necessarily. This report evaluates the home after relocation; a foundation certification addresses a specific foundation standard. Send the written request and we confirm which one it is.
What should I send?
The lender's exact wording, the property address, where the home was moved from and when, and your closing date.
