Where can I find modular dealers?
You can find modular dealers by asking existing homeowners and real estate agents for recommendations. You can also contact your state manufactured housing association for names and addresses of modular dealers and manufacturers. You can do a search online for "modular dealers" or search the Yellow Pages as well.
What can a modular dealer do for me?
Modular dealers are usually responsible for providing modular plans to the homeowner. They can help the homeowner choose which features they want and don't want and help them customize the modular plans to their taste and satisfaction. The modular may also assist the home buyer in obtain financing and insurance.
Once the modular dealer has helped the home buyer select and customize their modular plans, the modular dealer will coordinate the delivery and installation of the home. Your modular dealer is usually the person to contact if you have warranty issues after you move into the home.
Is it expensive to build a home from modular plans?
Modular homes typically cost less to build than homes built on site. Modular home manufacturers can get greater volume discounts on building supplies because of the large number of houses they build each year. Modular homes are built in a controlled environment. There is less waste because building materials are not exposed to the outside elements.
Are modular plans better than on-site built homes?
Modular homes are built with 15% more nails, screws, lumber, and adhesives than on-site built homes. They are built to withstand the wind and vibration of traveling along roads and being lifted piece-by-piece by crane.
Do modular dealers provide a warranty?
Most modular home manufacturers provide a warranty that covers the structure itself. The modular dealer typically has a warranty that is more comprehensive. The modular dealer's warranty may also cover issues related to the installation and/or delivery of the home. Many states require that your modular dealer have a building license and provide a warranty that covers the electrical, plumbing, and mechanical systems also.
Potential home buyers, looking for new construction should consider a modular home as one of their options. Building homes in a factory has many advantages over building one on-site. Modular homes are built faster and sturdier than on-site homes. You can take a tour of modular home factories to see how it's done.
