Green Building
One of the most talked about trends in building today is Green Building.  Modular homes, in the
way they are constructed are inherently green.  Modular homes are built in large part in a
controlled environment, which leads to less waste of materials.  Another favorable feature of
modular homes is that since most of the construction takes place in the factory, modular homes
take less time to complete once they are delivered to the home site.  This leads to less theft, less
cost overruns, and less delays due to weather than traditional stick built homes.  The Green
Building section of this site features articles and links to Green Building organizations.  
Custom Modular Homes

What is a Custom Modular Home ?

A couple of the benefits often cited about modular homes are the fact that they can be built
quickly and less expensive than other building methods.   Many people believe that since
modular homes are built in a factory they are all very similar, nondescript box shaped homes
with very few options available to the buyer.  This is simply not the case.  Custom modular
homes are now available by all manufacturers to some degree, and some companies now work
with the buyer and an in-house designer to help draw up their dream home.  While a custom
modular home of this kind will certainly cost more than a modular home that you choose out of
a catalog from the manufacturer, the fact that the house will be constructed in large part in the
factory under optimal conditions should still save some money by eliminating the extra waste
that occurs in site building.  

In addition to the complete customization of your modular home, there are other ways you can
make your home a custom modular home that will not increase your costs as much.  For
example, most manufacturers allow customers to "flip" a floor plan in many of their models
either for free or for a relatively modest amount.  Flipping a floor plan simply means that in
some cases you could take a plan and build your house to the mirror image of the original.  (In
other words the master bedroom would be on the left when you walk in instead of the right,
etc.).   It is also possible to add or remove a wall in some cases.  So if you had a kitchen with a
wall separated from the living room and you wanted to open it up so that you could watch tv
while cooking, this could  be done by the builder.  In cases like this, it could cost a couple
thousand dollars to make your modular into a custom modular home, because the engineer
would have to adjust the plans and determine whether the changes you would like to make
would affect the structural stability of the house.  The general rule is that if you would like to
customize a modular home you can usually make adjustments to walls as long as the walls are
not marriage points in the home.  
Some Modular homes terms
Modular Log Home

What is a Modular Log Home ?

This website has sections on Log homes and Modular Homes, but we have recently seen an
increase in people inquiring about companies that offer a
Modular Log Home.   In the past,
the term modular home and log home were two separate things.  A modular home is a home
that is largely built in a factory environment and placed on a permanent foundation on the
buyer's land.  Log homes were generally sets of logs that were kiln dried and prepared, then
shipped to the job site where a builder would connect them and complete the home.  In some
cases, the logs were sold in kits that would be shipped to the buyer's land, where the home
buyer would complete the work.  

With the increase in popularity of modular homes and the focus on green building, some
companies now offer Modular Log Homes.  A modular log home is usually a log home that is put
together in sections or modules in a factory environment.  The modules are then transported to
the home site and dropped on a permanent foundation to create a Modular Log Home.  There
are also some companies that advertise modular log homes or modular log cabins which are
actually modular homes that are constructed in a factory and delivered to a job site, then log
siding is put on the house so that it appears to be a log cabin.  Either one of these definitions of
modular log homes is considered to be the same as any site built home and financing should
be treated the same.  Here is some information on
modular log homes
