Fast Facts About Modular Homes:

• The building blocks of modular homes - individual modules - are housing components constructed in a controlled factory environment.
• Individual modules are up to 90% complete and shipped from the factory to the home site.  All walls, flooring, ceilings, stairs, carpeting, and even wall finish are completed in the factory before shipment.
• Once all building materials arrive at the factory, some manufacturers can assemble modules in a single day. Typically, a two-story, 2,500 sq. ft. home can be constructed in a factory in under a week.
• Aside from any cost savings, modular homebuyers benefit from the short assembly time of their home – reducing any amount of weather damage or home site vandalism. Over the life of the home, modular homes save money because they are incredibly efficient. 
• In 2004, 42,700 modular homes were constructed in the United States

• The most popular states for modular construction are North Carolina, Michigan, and New York.
