What is the difference between a Modular home and a Mobile Home/Doublewide?
1. Mobile Homes – built to a lax code with generally substandard building products (when compared to modular or site-built homes). Built on a steel frame to hold it together, most have wheels. 2. H.U.D. Homes – slightly mre stringent national code than mobile homes 3. Modular Homes – built generally to the toughest codes required in the State, built out of the same type building materials and name brands you would find in site-built homes. No steel frame underneath – only 2×10’s, floor trusses or other approved floor system. Have no wheels or trailer of their own. Nationwide Homes, our supplier of Modular Homes, has been building Systems built homes for 41 years. After looking at many of the modular home companies that serve our area, I chose Nationwide because they are driven to be the best. They are not the cheapest. They are not the closest, but they offer, in my opinion, the best quality, flexibility and service. Please be careful, some unreputable dealers try to sell mobile homes
