finding exact age on 1976 SW

Post by Stephanie Reamer » Thu Sep 02, 2004 8:02 am

I have a title stating 1976 and there is a hud lable on the rear of the home. My delima is finding the exact date of manufacture as being after 6/15/1976. Is there any place that you can look up the age of the home by the HUD tag number. The company is out of business.

Thank you
Stephanie

The fact that it has a HUD seal, indicates it was built after that date. The date of manufacture is on the data plate inside the home.

Is there a way to look up a hud tag number if it has been removed using the serial number?

I under stand that however, my lender wants a date not just the tag.

I think you misunderstood...the date is on the data plate INSIDE the home...

the data plate looks like this..

From my memory..almost all homes built to the HUD standards were titled 1977...somehow you might have one different...check out HUDS lable site I mentioned above..
