Which of the following is a moveable dwelling?

• A. A recreational vehicle used as a permanent residence
• B. B A mobile home intended as a permanent residence
• C. C A standard site-built home
• D. D A boat used recreationally only

Answer: (B)

A moveable dwelling is a structure built to be transported from one location to another, not permanently fixed to a site. A mobile home fits this exactly: it is constructed on a trailer chassis and designed to be moved, even if it’s placed on a foundation and used as a permanent residence. That mobility is what defines it as moveable. A standard site-built home is anchored to its foundation and not intended to be moved, so it doesn’t qualify. A boat used recreationally isn’t a land dwelling at all, so it isn’t classified as a moveable dwelling in real estate terms. An RV could be moveable, but in this context the term most specifically points to a mobile home designed to be transported, making it the best answer.
