The housing market continues to falter. But most builders have not considered a viable alternative: modular homes.

Modular homes today are not even close to the homes built ten or fifteen years ago. The best modular homes do not have wheels and they are not lowered onto concrete blocks from a crane.

The best modular homes are stronger, more efficient and are offered in hundreds of cutting edge styles, shapes and sizes.

On top of that, modular homes are less expensive than most stick built homes.
Granted, there are a few downsides to modular homes, such as time, land and initial money.

The construction time of a modular home is usually shorter than traditional homes it still may take a couple of months for your home to be ready.

You must own the land your new modular will be built on. The land can be expensive, depending on where you live.

In most cases when you are building a new modular home you must pay the builder in full before the home is completed. This is a major drawback for most people. But most builders will offer terms, especially in this economy.

The Advantages of a Modular Home

  • There are numerous advantages to building a modular home. Here are a few of them:

  • Modular homes tend to be more affordable than traditional houses. This is because most of the construction is done in a factory. The longer it takes to build a home the more expensive it will be.

  • What’s more, because modular homes are prefabricated in factories they take far less time to complete. Building inspectors are onsite to inspect every step of the construction. 

  • Modular homes come hundreds of different designs. 

  • Most of the modular homes being built today tend to be energy efficient using high quality insulation and windows. 

  • In some cases modular homebuyers can finance their home through the modular home manufacturer. 

SC Modular Homes  can be a great fit for most people. They are affordable, efficient, comfortable and attractive. This is why modular homes are making a comeback.
