Manufactured Homes vs Panelized Homes

Are Manufactured Homes Inferior?

YES...
 According to the U.S. Federal Government!

Panelized homes are built better than manufactured homes.

Most banks and mortgage lenders recognize that manufactured  homes go down in value (not up). This is the reason banks generally will not give a loan for a manufactured home after 11 years. Simply, there is no equity left.  That's bad news for a lender and even worse news for the owner!

• Manufactured homes are not built to superior IBC or IRC building codes. 
• Manufactured homes are built to a sub-standard HUD code. 
• Our panelized homes are built to exceed the IBC and IRC codes.

   

  Manufactured homes and what the HUD sticker really means:

The Housing and Urban Development  (or HUD) sticker is placed only on buildings that are inferior, as determined by the U.S. Congress!  The U.S. Congress is responsible for bringing HUD into existence and its substandard code. The idea was to make housing available to the mass population.  The result created the "ticky-tacky" sub-standard house.

The buildings that pass the IBC and IRC building codes are too well built to "qualify" for a HUD sticker, according to HUD.

Is there an ALTERNATIVE to manufactured homes and poor quality?
YES! Our panelized homes are built to exceed superior codes!  In addition, our panelized homes are built with lumber quality and automated precision that far exceeds what any local framer ("stick-builder") or home-builder can duplicate. 

You get SUPERIOR quality (quality that surpasses every known modular builder) with LESS COST than traditional on-site framing.

What about purchasing a USED HOME?

IBC = International Building Code.

IRC = International Residential Code.
