What is the difference between manufactured homes and modular homes?

Posted by admin on October 10th, 2011 and filed under modular homes | 3 Comments »

And which is considered better? What could be possible problems with these homes compared to a standard home?

Construction.

Manufactured and modular are both constructed exactly the same. In a factory, under controlled environment, and in "modules". There’s no difference there

Manufactured are made according to Federal HUD codes, and modulars are constructed to State codes.

There are no problems with either. It depends on whether your locale allows manufactured, and whether you have your own property, or not.

If anything, "modulars" are built better than stick built. They have to be able to travel down roads at 65-70 miles an hour, and not sustain damage. Interior finishings are what YOU choose.

Personal choice

Who builds high quality Modular homes?

Posted by admin on October 8th, 2011 and filed under modular homes | 1 Comment »

I live in Southern California, I am considering buying a modular home. Does anybody know who makes a good quality home?

And it will be helpful to know what the extra cost will be as well i.e laying foundation, septic or sewer hook ups? Is this also included when financing?

We also live in Southern California and if we were building a modular home again, we would look closely at http://www.guerdonhomes.com/ (one built in our neighborhood just after our Champion Genesis was "built") and http://www.barvistahomes.com/

I would stay away from any Champion Genesis Redman modular home under any circumstance.
See http://championgenesismodularhomes.com/ for all the details & dollars regarding why we would not pick a Champion Genesis modular home ever again, along with comments from other sorrowful buyers.

Many of your follow-up questions are answered by other comments on the blog.

What are some advantages of tearing down a forest to make new homes?

I’ve already got jobs and new homes but i need one more advantage, thanks

Cutting all trees facilitates site preparation to control pests and competing vegetation, improve seedbeds, and ameliorate soil deficiencies (for example, by cultivation, drainage, or fertilization).

When applied systematically across a forest ownership, clearcutting creates well-defined age classes in distinct stands, simplifying the management for evenflow sustained yield from a forest.
