Insuring a Modular Home in Arizona
August 28, 2025 | Insurance
Modular homes have become increasingly popular in Arizona for their affordability, modern design, and fast construction timelines. But just like traditional site-built homes, modular homes need the right insurance coverage —especially in areas prone to desert heat, dust storms, and seasonal monsoons.
At Riseson Insurance , we specialize in helping Arizona homeowners protect their investments with insurance plans tailored to modular and manufactured homes across Tempe , Phoenix , Scottsdale , Tucson , Gilbert , and Chandler.
A modular home is a type of prefabricated home built in sections at a factory and then transported to a permanent foundation at the home site. Unlike manufactured or mobile homes , modular homes must meet the same local building codes as site-built homes and often look indistinguishable from traditional houses.
Because of their unique construction and transportation process, modular homes require specific insurance coverage to account for these differences.
While modular homes are built to high standards, they still face unique risks, such as:
Transportation damage (if newly delivered) Installation complications Weather exposure ( high winds , flash flooding , wildfire risks in Arizona) Long-term durability concerns in extreme temperatures
Standard homeowners policies may not cover all of these scenarios, which is why a tailored modular home insurance policy is so important.
A proper insurance policy for your modular home typically includes:
Dwelling coverage – Protects the structure itself from damage ( fire , wind, theft , etc.) Personal property – Covers your belongings inside the home Liability protection – In case someone is injured on your property Loss of use – Helps cover living expenses if your home is uninhabitable due to a covered loss Additional structures – Covers garages, sheds, decks, or porches added to the home
Our agents at Riseson Insurance will help you find the right balance of coverage and affordability based on your modular home’s value, location, and usage.
