Cost Savings

Building a Modular Home allows for substantial "cost savings" in almost every area of the building and financing process. Here's how:


  • Bulk Material Purchases

  • Modular home companies purchase lumber and brand name materials in huge quantities directly from the manufacturer resulting in lower costs.

  • Controlled Environment

  • Modular Homes are constructed in spacious, indoor climate controlled production facilities. Skilled craftsmen build your home uninterrupted by inclement weather. This results in greater labor efficiencies, lowering cost.

  • Less Material Waste

  • Recycling plus warehousing materials in a secure environment, with protection from weather and job site theft, lowers cost.

  • Manufacturing Technology

  • Precision equipment and efficient material handling result in more accurate construction with fewer mistakes and lower cost.

  • Construction Time Period

  • Since Modular Homes are delivered to the job site about 90% complete, total construction time is greatly reduced, incurring less interest and quicker occupancy.

  • House Plans

  • Modular Homes provide the necessary plans for building permits and complete construction without requiring an architect, lowering costs.

  • Financing Cost

  • Quicker construction time with fewer interest charges, result in less cost.

  • Quality Control

  • Each modular home undergoes rigid quality control inspections by a Quality Assurance Department trained to inspect every aspect of construction from framing to final finishing details including electrical, mechanical and plumbing. All homes are checked to see that they conform to each state's building code by an INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY INSPECTION AGENCY. The entire quality control process starts with the inspection of raw materials as they are received by the plant to ensure conformance to high quality standards and specific state code requirements. This results in fewer construction errors and lower costs

  • Design Flexibility

  • Modular Homes come in many different styles, including ranch, cape cod, split level, and two-story. Although there are many standard floor plans to choose from within each style, complete design flexibility and customization, including the ability to draw your own unique design is available.
