There are many builders, developers and designers who sell similar concepts and brands. Our Company has a long history and background in the modular industry. We have taken what we have learned over the last 25+ years about the modular home manufacturing industry to the next level. As a group we have spent a long time strongly focusing on what drives the building cost/cost per square foot and have learned how to control it. We then developed a system that stream lines the very labor intensive building process while still providing a high level of custom finishes and options. Our system applies to stick built, post frame and modular construction projects. This being said the bottom line is the bottom we save you money! We have strong working relationships with many modular home manufactures this gives us great buying power plus we will provide you with more than one price quote for your new modular home.
