Modular Home Prices
When shopping for a modular home you will probably have many questions to ask the builders or sales people
you meet. Generally, people in the modular home industry are very eager to tell you all of the features and
benefits in their line of modular homes. Most will have a general enthusiasm regarding modular homes in
general. However, one question that it is often very hard to get a set answer about is the price of a particular
modular home.
The reason most builders are reluctant to commit to a price until the final details are worked out in a sale is
because there are many variables. Most of today's modular homes can be customized to a great extent and this
results in a large variance in modular home prices. In addition, modular home pricing is tied into factors such as
fuel prices because the home will be delivered from the factory to the home site. So although a major benefit of
modular homes is the limited number of overruns because less time is spent on the job site, a spike in fuel
prices can result in a difference in price in your modular home. For these reasons, builders tend to try not to
lock in a price until the project is close to getting started. For some articles related to modular home pricing,
