Which of the following must manufactured/mobile homes not on a permanent foundation do?

Be registered annually with DMV
Be registered with HCD on sale or transfer only
Be licensed before sale
Be inspected every year

The correct answer is: Be registered with HCD on sale or transfer only

The correct answer indicates that manufactured or mobile homes not on a permanent foundation must be registered with the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) only when there is a sale or transfer of ownership. This requirement is significant because it ensures that the HCD maintains an updated and accurate record of ownership for such homes. By only requiring registration during the sale or transfer, it alleviates the need for ongoing registration that applies to vehicles, therefore streamlining procedures for manufactured housing. In contrast, the other options imply ongoing responsibilities that are not required for homes not on a permanent foundation. Registration with the DMV or annual inspections suggests a regulatory framework more akin to conventional vehicle management, which does not apply to manufactured homes that retain their identity as residential units rather than vehicles. These distinctions highlight the emphasis on property ownership and transaction in manufactured housing rather than continuous vehicle-type regulation.
