Are Prefab Homes Ready for the Mass Market?

My dream home from BLU HOMES


Bom Dia!

I came across this article in my newsletter from SOURCEABLE, 
'Are Prefab Homes Ready for the Mass Market?'

As you all already know, I strongly believe in modular homes.  But in the back of my mind, I always wondered - Why hasn't this caught on?

The advantages of prefab building:

  • The price  of a manufactured home is significantly less than a site-built home.
  • Semi-custom homes coast 20 - 40 percent less per square foot than a standard stick-built home.
  •  Unlike site built homes, prefab homes are not exposed to the elements. The sections are built indoors and put together on site.
  • Waste is reduced because the material is managed more closely.
  • Low-cost factory-built homes are often sold like cars, with a selection available on a dealer's lot, meaning a buyer can have a new home on site in a matter of days.

As you can see from the images I selected for today's blog, these homes can be very SEXY!!

Pre-Fab homes are manufactured in a way that reduces it's impact on the environment and they cost 40-50 percent less than a regular stick home.

Do an internet search on Pre-fab homes and will be amazed at all of the possibilities!!
