What must be done before a Red Tag can be removed from a manufactured home?

Before a Red Tag can be removed from a manufactured home, a key step involves addressing any financial obligations associated with the tag. Specifically, paying a removal fee is mandated as part of the process. This fee is typically set at $50 and serves as a necessary administrative step confirming that the necessary conditions for removal have been met.

Ideally, the purpose of the Red Tag is to ensure that any issues identified with a manufactured home are addressed appropriately before it is deemed safe and suitable for occupancy or sale. While fixing structural issues and conducting inspections are important for overall safety and compliance with building codes, they are often prerequisites that need attention before any fee can be assessed or paid. The need to obtain a new sales license is unrelated to the Red Tag; the tag pertains specifically to the condition and status of the home rather than the salesperson's licensing status.
