Reasons to get a Modular Home

If you're in the market for a new home and are less than impressed with your choices on the open market, don't leave a modular home out of the picture. There are several advantages to buying one that you should consider.

When you buy a brand new modular home you are completely in control of the design. You can choose from dozens of different styles and designs from the manufacturer and then customize it to your specifications. If you want to upgrade the cabinets, the wall studs, even the flooring choices, then you can.

It's build inside, away from the elements. Your home's framework is not exposed to harsh elements while it's being built.

It's done in a few weeks. The timeframe may vary a little depending on the backlog of orders, but generally your house can be done a lot faster than if you hire a general contractor for a stick built house simply because there are more people working on it, they can work year round inside and many of the stock parts are already available.

In terms of onsite options you have several. If the region supports it we recommend paying extra to have a basement dug so you have a safe place during storms plus you gain that much more floor space for a fraction of the cost.

The home will be finalized on site, and you aren't stuck with a single story ranch design. In today's market there are two story homes that look stick built and are of a very fine quality.

Overall we definitely recommend considering this type of home. You can choose how to customize it to your needs. Now you just need to find a lot to put it on!
