Were can I find a website with information on modular homes?

17.January, 2009

My fiance and I are getting married in four months and after that comes the buying of a house. We've realized that whatever house we buy is going to need to much work to get to our needs and taste. This is why were thinking about modular homes….

Manufactured housing has come a long way. It encompasses more than "mobile homes" and "double-wides". I once saw one company with six basic modules that could be mixed and matched to come up with 12 different floorplans.

    Ok, I am a loan officer in Southern California, and I strongly suggest you NOT purchase a modular or mobile home. The problem with these is that they depreciate in value ridiculously fast. Also, it is extremely hard to find a lender to qualify you, due in part to you not only having to pay the mortgage on the home, but also, either space rent or puchase the land seperately. This has been my experience with mobile and modular homes. But, best to check out the facts before you do anything. I'm not trying to solicite you, but if you have more questions, I'd be happy to help. I can find you more resources, if you want more information. You can e-mail me at kim@gofrf.com. I wish you both the best of luck!

    I agree with Kim. Modular homes are a big waste and you would be kicking yourself in the head if you bought one. I just purchased my first home last year and I already began remodeling little by little when the money is available. Just remember that everything takes time, you can't remodel your entire home in one year because it costs to much so live with what you have until you can remodel it just as I am doing.

    I am doing all the work myself without anyone helping me so right there saves me a ton of money. If you're handy you can do it too.

    Also think about this, if you and your fiance plan on having children and you purchase a modular home you won't have a yard for your children to play in.

    Good Luck & Have a wonderful wedding
