A loan is secured by a mobile home located in an SFHA in a participating NFIP community. Can the federal mandatory purchase requirement apply?

Correct Answer

D) Yes, a mobile home is a covered type of collateral when the other designated-loan conditions are met

Why this is correct: The federal mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements apply to "designated loans," which are loans secured by a "building or mobile home" located in an SFHA in a participating community. A mobile home is explicitly listed as a type of covered collateral, provided the other conditions (like SFHA location) are met. Why the other choices are wrong: The statement "No, mobile homes are categorically excluded" is wrong because the rules expressly include them. The statement "Only if the loan is unsecured" is wrong because the requirement applies to secured loans. The statement "Only after the first payment is missed" is wrong because the requirement is triggered at loan origination or renewal, not default. Exam tip: Mobile homes are not exempt; they are expressly included as collateral that can trigger the mandatory flood insurance requirement.
