12 Things You Can Do To Make Your Manufactured Home Look Like It Was Built On-Site.
1. Roof angle: One of the most obvious traits of a manufactured home is they have low pitch roofs or even flat roofs. One of the best ways to make your manufactured home look site built is to elevate the roof angle. Some even come with elevated roofs from the factory. A steeper roof angle will help with drainage and snow with the bonus of looking good.
Storage Furniture For Smaller Spaces
First things first. Baskets are great. They have been storing our stuff for 1,000s of years. Throughout these suggestions, I’ll be constantly bringing up baskets… because they are great. No matter what you are doing to create more storage, baskets can add functionality, organization, and beauty. They can store things all by themselves but when mixed with furniture offer a terrific way to store and organize all your stuff.

Preparing Your Manufactured Home For A Disaster: Earthquake Retrofit
In regards to manufactured housing, the foundation is everything. A manufactured home built on a solid foundation by a contractor is better constructed, more robust, and more disaster resistant than most site-built homes. Manufactured homes are built to withstand the vibrations and shaking expected during transport from the factory, so they are stronger than other types of housing.
Put A Porch On That
One of the easiest and best ways to improve the usable space of your manufactured home is to add a porch to it. Since a porch is outside of the initial home it doesn’t count as square footage in terms of HUD regulations. So a smaller Park model home could be significantly extended by adding a porch, or two.
