Modular Home Construction. The Best Home Money Can Buy.

What is a Modular Home?  It's probably not what you think.  Modular homes can give you one of the most energy efficient, cost effective, high quality built homes ever...and they can be custom designed.  It's surprises me that in this day and age, how many people still think of a Modular home as just another "mobile home".  Not close.  Modular homes are not the same thing as "Manufactured" homes.  Modular homes are exactly the same construction as a typical "stick built" home...just built in a factory.  The factory means you have less waste, better quality controls, lower labor costs since all the labor comes to the same place for every house, and incredible energy efficiency





Custom Plans from the Factory
As I stated above, you can have the factory build it from a custom plan too.  It can also be a great way to build a development.  Scheduling is not an issue since all the "open" construction is done in the factory. The speed factor plays a big role here too.  Order the plan, pick the elevation, send in the order and wait for it to be delivered to the site.  When it is delivered you just need to do the connections and install the hookups.  No more listening to your buyers complain about not having their house built yet, and you having to explain how the weather is affecting construction.  How about the positive impact on sales from the energy efficiency.

Size is Not an Issue
Size is not an obstacle either.  I have designed them as small as 900 square feet and as large as 6000 sq. ft.  Financing is not a problem either.  Most manufacturers have a financing source ready and willing.


Quality Controls in Place
Modular homes are highly engineered and all of the typical "rough" inspections are done in the factory.  In fact, these homes are built to meet or exceed local building codes.


Still not sure?  Go visit a factory.  Every manufacturer will allow you.. check that, will expect you to visit the factory to see the process in action.  Many will even let you watch your own home being built.


Check it out.  I know you won't be sorry.  Just make sure you check out the manufacturers work before you have them build your homes.
