The Problem:
The construction industry is changing rapidly.
Availability of skilled labor is in short supply. Most homebuyers want to
have peace of mind that their home is well built and will last. Some are
concerned with the lack of adequate building codes or standards in their
area.
The Solution:
Modular homes are an excellent solution to the problems facing the construction
industry. Modular homes have been around for decades. Due to ever-increasing
material costs and a tight labor market, modular homes are now coming into
their own. They are built similarly to conventional homes. However, they
are constructed in a controlled environment to the most stringent codes
required by the State to which they are shipped. The standards and quality
are actually higher than in many site-built custom homes.
Construction Quality:
The homes are constructed in "modules" and then assembled into one
complete structure on a permanent foundation (either crawlspace or basement).
Specifications and tolerances can be continuously monitored and hundreds of
quality checks are made throughout the construction process. The modular home
is actually built stronger than a site-built home because it has to endure
the rigors of transportation and being lifted and set by a crane. It may contain
up to 30% more lumber than a site-built home in order to achieve this structural
integrity. Modular homes have proven their strength through hurricanes and
high winds. Our modular homes are built to meet or exceed all local, state
and federal building codes for our area.
All Modular Homes are not created equal. Just as
the quality of site-built homes varies with the builder, modular home
quality can vary widely. There are two major elements that comprise
the quality of a modular home:
1. The modular home manufacturer
2. Your local builder
We feature only Nationwide Homes. Before settling
on Nationwide Homes, we looked at the other modular home manufacturers
that serve our area. In our opinion, Nationwide is the best - hands
down. They build only modular homes and have been in business for over

Modular homes can be completed faster. Compared
with conventional construction modular homes are constructed more quickly
and are not subject to typical weather delays. Most of our homes can
be completed in 4 months or less.
Value:
Modular homes enjoy resale values equivalent to those of site-built homes. |
