About Off-Site Built Homes

Off-Site Built homes, also called sectional, systems-built, or modular homes, are built off-site in an efficient and quality controlled environment. They are then transported to the home site on trucks and crane set on to a prepared foundation.

Unlike manufactured or mobile homes, Off-Site Built homes are built to the same local uniform building codes (UBC) as site built homes. This way you can be sure that your Off-Site Built home was engineered specifically for the building conditions of your area.

The main advantages of Off-Site Built homes are that they can be built in about half the time and generally cost 20%-40% less than comparable homes built on-site, while meeting or exceeding the same quality standards.
