Prefabricated Modular Homes

I have noticed some prices of modular homes. I was curious as to what basic packages usually include when it comes to appliances, flooring, etc. Is all of this extra? Do any come with all kitchen appliances, but then you can upgrade to better quality appliances??? Also…is it extra to customize carpet color add washer dryer? We are trying to keep it basic, but is it better to get all options included or to buy appliances? Just want an idea of how much more it cost to have all included added onto the base price?

We have a 2005 built modular home and we were able to choose our carpeting and linoleum colors/patterns, cabinet pattern/wood color and countertop colors from different swatches the manufacturer had. I think most other manufacturers are like that. This wasn't considered an upgrade, so all prices were the same for whatever we chose, it was just our decision.

We did upgrade to a solid foundation and sheetrocked walls so that got more expensive on us. As for the appliances, we chose to purchase the house with the dishwasher, stove and fridge included and had a choice of white or black (we did black). Stainless would've been quite a bit more. I did, however, upgrade to a glass cooktop stove…a great thing…still looks brand new over a year later.

Just in case…if you're looking at Horton Homes (based out of GA) RUN THE OTHER DIRECTION. We had all kinds of problems with our local manufacturer and that particular branch has now went out of business. Just play it smart…we were first-timers and really naive about things and really could've gotten more for our money if we'd have thought it out more.

Good luck!
