Factory Built Housing - Facts and Fiction
Some people think when they hear factory built, " Isn't that just a fancy way of saying mobile home, or worse yet...trailer?" Well, no. Our industry no longer recognizes these terms. The factory built housing of today is nothing at all like the stereotypical mobile homes of times past. In fact, many aspects of a factory built home are better than one that is site constructed. Homes coming out of a factory are "overbuilt" and often weigh more per square foot than if the same home was built on site. They have to be built with this type of strength in order for the homes to be transported and placed on the home site.
Green building techniques and efficiencies, as well as energy star approved homes, are all common ingredients in factory home construction. So you can rest assured that product material inspections and oversight of the construction process are part of the daily routine in the factory setting. For more information on building specifications please refer to the standard features of the homes we carry or go to site preparation and factory time. The main attribute to remember that most distinguishes modern factory built homes from those of years past, is QUALITY!
