Just one more scam backed by law. Typical in America.
They can be built in the same factory. The manufactured home, has a permanent metal frame under the house, to which the axles and tongues get attached during transport. And, a modular home, has a wooden substructure, is built to comply with the building codes, has no provision to install axles and tongues., and is brought onsite aboard a flatbed trailer, and is slid onto a permanent, code compliant, foundation.
ok who sells the real thing? Who is the brand name of the Modular home?
Double wides that I was looking at 15 years ago for 75k are now going for 225k so I’d say the myth was people saying they would devalue over time
Call them what they are. Trailers. Stop calling them manufactured homes. Confusion evaporates.

You are so right! I nearly bought a home from Oakcreek homes in Midland Tx that was in the manufactured homes catalog but the swore they could build it modular and the website point out homes that they will convert to modular. I didn’t feel right about it since my lender was unsure about specs as well. As I did more homework (and listened to you, Kristina) I realized it would be a bad investment.

Can you tell me a few companies that sell actual modular or are they all just trying to rip us off?
Thanks for all your informative vide! You're helping out a lot of people. ❤
If you are in doubt on the type of structure, Mobile Homes (Trailers) requires an MCO, Manufacturers Certificate of Origin. You will usually find a placard in the building. Look near power panel, master closet, utility room etc. It is required by law. Now once you find this, you will know it's NOT a modular home of any kind no matter what they tell you. If you are still in doubt, look underneath of the home. If it has steel beams underneath as part of its structure it is a trailer. Modular homes can arrive on a trailer but the trailer leaves with the truck that brought the components. Trailers are installed and the axles removed. Don't ever buy a trailer. EVER
Why can't Americans get a real home than a toy manufactured park home, its so confusing
I am in manufactured homes often, due to poor engineering the products do not hold up due to mistakes made not by the product but by install issues of the product. The quality of the build of these single and double wides with price paid for them is shameful. These homes are not built to last. The designs look like a 5th grader designed them ignoring basic rules of building design. 😢
All depends. Three years ago my realtor found me an older manufactured home set on a solid foundation in a small town for $70,000. The lot is spacious and came with a two stall two story garage. The lot is on a paved street, all utilities in. So far everything is great. My total expenses for utilities, insurance, and taxes are less than $400 a month which is lower than most lot rents in mobile home parks. I hear of reports of lot rents in Florida having gone up to $1,000. If your retired l would recommend looking for a house in small towns, there are a lot of bargains out there.
I find her fast talking and incessant hand-waving to be so irritating I shut the video off. No caffeine (or blow) for you, sister.
You are so funny. Enjoyed the video.
I'm a Real Estate Broker and own a Manufacturing Home Dealership who also does Modular Homes and can say 100% that this video isn't accurate in that we can build any Manufactured Home as a Full Modular and it'll appraise and sell as a Stick Built Home with the same financing.
I love your channel as we are looking into buying land a putting a modular home, not a manufactured home. Keep up the great work!
A modular home. They're like legos in a way. Manufactured are like a HUGE truck container. Or multiple put together.
Very informative! Thank you!!
This is the best, most informative video I've seen on this topic. Thank you so much!! First time subscriber, life time fan 🙏
Just say they are large sheds with a toilet 🚽 and sink 🧌
Solitaire manufactured homes are on a level unlike any other homes, including stick built homes. They are built stronger and made to last a lifetime. Check out how they are constructed.
I can build a regular home in less time that is MUCH better than these trailers!
A modular home or a manufactured home?
They are different animals.
!
Barndominium house is much cheaper than modular house because it has many benefits, one of which is that it can be very cost-effective, as it will cost a lot less than building a conventional house, and sometimes even a modular home depending on your specifications and house size. They are highly durable and resistant to weather, pests, and fire protection. They often require less maintenance compared to traditional and modular homes.
This was short and to the point. Great information. I have been interested in a modular home for some time. I now realize I have a lot of work to do.
What people don't realize is that in some states you can not write a mortgage on a manufactured home because it arrives to it destination on a truck bed and the o think that you can get is a loan on. but with a modular you can get a mortgage because it is built like a house and not portable.
Funny we call them trailers, not manufactured homes. Single wide or double wide. The double wide looks like a modular home but it ain't.
Sloooooo down!
Manufactured home equals trailer
this lady has no understanding of what she is talking about. is she talking about on or off frame mods? and u can move a mod.
I like modular homes , tell us who the real ones and who are fakes .
Just tell us the difference without all the add-ons . I almost need a bottle of aspirin .
I tried to sell a Modular home and the appraiser claimed that it was deemed a mobile Home. I told him I did not see any wheels on the side or under the house. Plus there were no Junked cars out front
