Why are manufactured homes more affordable than a site-built home?
Try having your next car built in your drive way and see how it compares in quality and price to a factory built new car. This is where Manufactured Homes have a tremendous advantage over site built homes. Both manufactured and site-built homes use pre-hung windows, doors, siding and roof-truss systems. Manufactured houses, because they are built in a factory environment, are carefully controlled and built economically. All the materials are gathered in quantity, avoiding extra handling and middleman mark-ups. They’re stored indoors, out of the weather, which preserves quality and reduces waste and loss. A factory environment eliminates site vandalism, weather delays, material shortage, and shipment delays.
