Modular Homes Are Financed and Appraised Much the Same as Traditional Homes.
Modular Homes are permanent structures and appreciate in value similar to traditional homes. Which is not the case for manufactured or mobile homes-which tend to depreciate in value.
They’re super sturdy and build to last and can withstand winds of up to 175-mph.
FEMA concluded in a study done by the damage done by Hurricane Andrew in Florida (Aug. 2012) that modular homes fared better compared to other construction.
Prefab Construction dates back over 100 years.
One of the earliest prefab homes was a mail order pre-built kit from Sears and Roebuck Co. They were similar to panelized homes, but had to be assembled by the buyer. They were advertised as “Modern Homes” with 400 designs to choose from. The materials were delivered in two railroad boxcars with a detailed instruction manual.

I live in a double wide (3 bd 2 bath) and it’s amazing. It’s was only $168k (in 2022) and was able to finance it with a credit score of 630 and making $24/hr at my current job. It was built in 2017 so it’s practically brand new. Would highly recommend for first time home buyers or small families.

Hey question where do I place one if u can’t afford to buy land?

@jabadahut50 8 месяцев назад

@@amaniiexxchngeSave up and buy the land. You NEVER want someone else owning the land under your home. They can raise rates at anytime and even evict you and a mobile home is mobile but moving it is a nightmare and you cant really store it anywhere so you NEED somewhere to put it immediatly. And thats assuming you didnt jave it put on a permanent foundation in which case you are SOL entirley.

We sold our traditional home in the city, bought 20 acres of land in the country and just bought a manufactured home! It’s a VERY cost effective and the second one we have owned since we’ve been married. We lived in our RV for 2.5 years until we decided to save some money and buy it. Home is just home! 😊

Manufactured homes go up in value too. We bought a 3 bed 2 bath manufactured home with 2.5 acres of land in 1995 for $69,500. We just sold this property for $375,000. So, tell me again how they depreciate? Also, it’s been in a storm with winds of 175 mph.

@LucasFernandez-fk8se No, mobile homes/trailers are ramping up in value as well. All homes are, and apartments. Got a modern double wide and 10 acres 6 years ago for 80k. The 1 acre lot across from me was sold for 36k this year without a home included lol.

Yes, I would. I already live in a house exact really such as the one that you described as a modular home in the end but it’s not that is a kit home from Sears home catalog and if you paid an extra thousand dollars, Sears would put it together for you, but most of the prices they were were without electricity or sewer so you had to pencil in an extra grand for all of that

Mobile home is anything prior to june 1976. Manufactured homes today are much the same as any mod. Atleast here in ny you can look to make a profit on a Manufactured home/ aka mobile home. All of the codes here require them to be on a slab with a vapor barrier ao no longer on dirt which was the number 1 problem with the old homes. Only issue now is financing can be a pain in the butt sometimes because banks don't work with them yet. So companies such as first credit co and priority funding are great lenders.
