Tips

  • The $100 mobile home application fee is a flat fee, unlike standard building permits which are valuation-based.
  • Adding a carport or other structure to a mobile home requires a separate, standard Residential Building Permit Application — the Mobile Home permit only covers moving/locating the unit itself.
  • Coordinate with the Nevada Division of Manufactured Housing (Carson City, (775) 684-2943) as well as the City Building Official — both conduct inspections.
