Fortunately with my modular build, the price was fixed from the start. No change orders! The builder did everything. No outside contractor to do site installation. The typical stick built takes three years plus some in my area. My mod SIP construction took 34 days on site. It took the utility company four months to turn on the power after CofO was issued.

My cousin bought a brand new modular home back in the 70's. She got a split entry. When they moved back to MA they built a stick built home. She had more issues with the stick built home. I don't remember all the issues but leaks was a big one.

I’d love to have a concrete block modular home.

If you don't OWN the land on house sits, it does not matter type of house sitting on it.

You are not kidding about putting in enough electrical outlets! We bought an older home and it has a very limited number of outlets... It can be quite a challenge when cleaning, cooking, and working from home. Thanks for another informative video!

Print the house under 10K within 24 hours- technology is there. Need will of politicians & lawmakers to help common poor Americans.

I watch your videos because I am a HYBRID modular builder. This process takes a more practical approach that provides the best of both traditional, on site and modular builds, while reducing the negatives of each. It can be done.

I have been looking at Incredible Tiny Homes in TN!

I love the versatility of modular homes however many of them are NOT built in the same quality as a typical stick built home. Unfortunately the downside usually is that $$$ is king and no one builds to benefit anyone other than themselves or the housing “crisis” would already be solved. 👍

In California they have Commercial & Residential Construction. In Commercial they have, The Developer, & he hires The Coordinator [ i.e. a Project Mgr. ], and then The Superintendent, The General Foreman, and after that The Foremen and
finally the ' rank & file Tradesmen.
Residential is probably identical. / In an Owner builder project The Owner Manages And Builds everything, except for
sub contracting out some Specialty Trades ( i.e. Pluming, Electrical, excetra ).

10:59 thanks for taking me back to childhood commercials LOL

Love your channel, Kristina! We live in the Austin area and are looking for a modular company. I heard your comment about the company here that was fined. I expect you can't tell me which company that was, so is my only alternative to continue my research and read comments on the companies? Or is there a ranking list of modular companies? Any guidance is greatly appreciated!!

[GamerGee]

12:00 speaking of that I believe code requires all walls more than 5 feet wide to have at least one outlet.

[RM-gyis]

Have you compared Modular to Barndominiums ? Ref the construction mode, energy efficiency, and costs?

[virginiamoss]

Very fair and useful. I don't get that references thing; they are only going to give me the names of people they know are happy with their work and have agreed to speak to me. That's useless.

Clayton Home, to put on unimproved land. Needed cleared, leveled, water, electricity, and sewage. Price of demo home 97k total would have been 267k, didn't do it. Bought a brick house.

@Kristina Smallhorn
12:58 In your opinion, what's the best modular home company where you live, in Southeast Louisiana? Top 3 even?

[thechavez]

I have been off and on looking into modular homes for the last two years. Is there a company that you recommend in Idaho? Clayton homes all look like manufactured homes sold as modular and the Google ratings for others don’t seem so great.

[alexanderpitman]

General contractor license really depends on the State. I know of at least 2 of them where you don't need a license. Heck, one of those doesn't even require a license to build homes.

@ 3:52 In California they have Laws where the Owner Can Build his own house ! Those are called Owner Builder Projects in
the Trades !
If someone does, and they Plan to Sell it then by law they have to live in that house for 2 years.
