                               Compare Apples to Apples

      There are many different builders to choose from when building a modular
home, and sometimes the hardest thing toget out of a builder is a firm price.
Even when you do get a number, each builder has its own set of items that are
included or not included in the price. Even if you are looking for a “turn key”
price, two builders may have a different opinion of what that actually means.
The good thing about most modular home builders is they will generally let you
decide how much, if any of the labor or contracting you would like to do yourself,
giving you a chance to leverage any experience or contacts you have to save
money on the project.

      So what you really need to do is to have a checklist ready of everything that
is involved in completing your home .   That way once you’ve found a couple
plans or companies you like, you can get the pricing from the builders you are
interested in and go through your list and find out what is included so you can
compare the different builders on a level playing field. The list should include
things like “Is the driveway included in the price?”, “ does the house come
equipped with gutters?” “ Does that price include painting or just primer?”,
etc.
