Does a modular home have a serial number?
Thursday, October 25, 2018
A modular home in Florida will have a DCA (Department of Community Affairs) sticker somewhat similar to the data plate of a manufactured home, usually located in the master bedroom closet, along with a second, smaller sticker that has the Florida DCA logo and a serial number, like the one shown above. Modular homes in other states will also have a data plate with a serial number.
