No, mobile home insurance isn’t required by law in any state, including Texas. That said, there’s a good chance your lender will require it before you can buy a home, or that your landlord will require it if your mobile home is in a mobile home community or park.
If you outright own your home, and place it on private property, no one will require you to have mobile home insurance — but the extreme weather in Louisiana makes getting coverage a smart investment anyway.
Like other Gulf Coast states, Texas’s mobile home insurance rates are influenced by annual hurricane risks, as well as tornadoes and wildfires. Your own insurance rates will depend on where you live in the state, the age of your home, your home’s characteristics, and other factors.
Though it’s sometimes referred to as hurricane insurance, Texas homeowners should check to ensure their mobile home insurance policies include coverage for wind damage caused by hurricanes. The policies we offer in Texas come with wind damage coverage automatically.
Here’s what makes mobile home insurance and traditional home insurance similar: they both cover your structure, your personal belongings, and your personal liability. They’re also both usually “open perils” coverage for your dwelling, which means they cover any loss unless it's caused by something that’s specifically listed as being excluded from the policy.
But here’s what makes them different: Insurers have found that manufactured homes represent a different risk than traditionally built homes. As a result, mobile home insurance can be more expensive than traditional home insurance.
In Texas, our policies can be written either as replacement cost or actual cash value. ACV policies are less expensive, but replacement cost coverage usually means you can replace your property with items that are of the same value, which can make recovery quicker.
Note: Modular homes are another type of home altogether. They’re usually built to the same standards as traditional homes, so they’re often insured with an HO-3 home insurance policy.
