Frequently Asked Questions |

|
| Do I have to have a builder? Yes. - Click here to see how it works. How fast is construction? Generally, you can move into your home in four to eight weeks from the date it is set on the foundation. From approval of the construction plans and estimate, we construct modules ready for delivery in 14 days. Your contractor will lay the foundation and prepare your site, as well as complete final finishing such as carpeting and painting, or construct whole sections depending upon your customization. What is the savings with modular construction? Contact one of our approved builders who can give you detailed savings information. Typically your biggest savings come from the shortened construction period, enabling fewer interest payments on construction loans. How do I get pricing information? Due to the many variables that could affect pricing, all prices must be obtained from your local approved builder. Are modulars just as sturdy as those built on site? Sturdier. Modulars are made for transport as well as living in. Base, or connecting, walls are twice as strong as regular non-load-bearing ones. HCH modulars are built in a controlled, factory environment and subjected to quality-assurance inspections far more detailed and frequent than would be economically feasible on-site. The result is a structure that stands up better to both weather and time. For more information, see FEMA's report on modular construction. Will visitors be able to tell the difference? Once your home is installed on your site foundation, structurally, it's no different than any other one in the neighborhood. In fact, your home will be stronger and more energy efficient. Most floorplans will defy any visitor to tell that it was constructed off-site. Is financing available? Call for financing options. Is there any type of home that can't be factory constructed? We can take most any design and build it faster and better. However, not all designs work well in our building system. If you don't find a design in our library to suit your needs, send us your idea to see if we can build it for you. Is there any difference in insurance rates or resale value? Modular homes generally qualify for the same rates and maintain the same valuations as any those built on-site. Their on-going energy savings can sometimes give modulars a competitive edge when they come to market. Is there any difference in maintenance costs? In most areas, standard costs of normal upkeep, such as roofing and HVAC are generally in line with homes built on-site. However, modulars tend to fare better in extreme weather conditions because of their reinforced construction, and thus can be much cheaper to maintain, not to mention significantly longer lasting. How much can a floorplan be changed? Whatever your taste, whatever particular design features, you, your builder and our design team will work to make your home a reality. We can accommodate countless alterations, regardless of size or complexity. Only in rare instances does modular construction become impractical.
