Fixture

A physical property permanently attached to real property. If a manufactured home is permanently affixed to the land, it's generally considered a fixture, serving as collateral for any mortgage on the property. This holds true even if the manufactured home is categorized as personal property and the mortgage loan wasn't used to buy the home.
