Before we decided to build a house we looked at the possibility of moving in a modular home. We were in a rental house that we didn’t like & we couldn’t find an already built home that we wanted to buy. Plus, we didn’t think we had the money or time to build.
One of my friends had a modular home & I was really impressed with it. Before this I had always thought of a manufactured home as being like a trailer, I couldn’t have been more wrong. These houses were built with care & had fireplaces. They were just a lot less money than the houses I was used to. They had high ceilings, walk in closets & even skylights.
I was looking at Palm Harbor Homes today which specializes in manufactured aka mobile homes. I was stunned. These homes did not look manufactured. The Carthage model looks more like a craftsman style house than a manufactured home.They are even energy efficient. Plus, their model center even has financing options & insurance packages. Model homes have come a long way.
