Technically, a "manufactured home" is any residential dwelling built in an "off-site" production facility, transported to the customer's destination, and installed with a minimum of on-site construction.

Both single and multi-section manufactured homes are site-delivered virtually complete, and are ready for occupancy after being secured to a foundation system.

 

Manufactured homes are built in accordance with an exacting Federal construction code, and are transported and installed under state and local laws and regulations.                                                     

 

Today's manufactured homes are the distant relatives of the "house trailers" or "mobile homes" of decades ago... and are less accurately referred to as "modular houses".

 

More and more potential home buyers are considering manufactured housing when making a housing change, due in part to recent advances in the quality, efficiency, safety and available options in today’s manufactured homes.

 

But, for the most part, potential home buyers recognize that their housing dollar buys more in terms of a manufactured home than in other possible housing options.
