Affixing a manufactured home to real estate does not extinguish an otherwise valid security interest in the home. A manufactured home which is affixed to real estate while not encumbered by a valid security interest shall be treated as an improvement to real estate and sections 327.61 to 327.67 shall not apply to it. If real estate to which an unencumbered manufactured home has been affixed as an improvement is subject to proceedings under section 559.21 or chapter 580 or 581, the presence of the home on the real estate does not necessitate any changed or additional procedures.
