Why Buy Modular? Quicker Turn Around Time - Factory built houses are ready 30 to 50 percent faster than stick-built homes, resulting in a cost saving to buyers on temporary housing and construction loan interest.   Lower Interest Costs - The cost of interest on a builder's construction loan, which he must ultimately pass on to the buyer, can add additional costs on to the final price of the home. Since the average modular unit is completed between 5 to 14 days at the job site versus four months to one year for a stick-built, this can amount to a huge savings in interest payments.   Fixed Pricing - Because of the manufacturers power, we can guarantee the price when the order is formally accepted.   Better Quality Materials - Even though the material shipped to the job site may be the same as those shipped to the factory, upon receiving them at the factory, they are inspected for quality. If they are substandard, they are shipped back to the supplier. Also, all materials are stored in the warehouse until used.   Controlled Environment Leads to Better Quality - The manufacturer uses state of the art precision cutting and fastening devices that are years ahead of what can be used on site. Also, all homes go through 17 quality control checkpoints, so if something is wrong, it gets corrected long before it reaches the job site. And because of the consistent environment, worker morale is consistent and leads to a better finished product overall. A controlled environment also means we can continue building in any weather without extensive and costly delays.   Better Skilled Labor - Due to the fact that our workers specialize in one task, they become experts in that particular area through repetition. This also leads to a superior finished product.   Faster Loan Approvals - Bankers are usually aware of the reputation and quality of a factory-built firm, and therefore require less time to study a structure in determining its loan value. There are also fewer draws.   Optimization of Materials - Where as on site structures can be built an inch short or an inch long in places (which causes wasted materials), factory built homes are computer designed for accurate, optimum use of materials. Also all floors, exterior and interior walls and ceilings are built on a pre-measured, exact jig.   Less Costly Design and Engineering - The manufacturer has trained draftsmen on hand to design floor plans. This cuts the high cost of design and engineering to hours versus days and weeks. Also, if the drawing must be sealed by an engineer, we have access to an independent third-party inspector.   Less Costly Job Site Inspections - Building inspectors love to be able to but their job site inspection time by looking at association brands, lumber grades, third-party inspection tags, etc. This is common with most factory built houses, so the job site inspector finds far fewer violations than with site construction.
