About Modular Construction

What are modular homes?

Modular homes are high-quality houses built in sections at a factory, then transported and assembled on-site. They meet the same building codes as site-built homes and offer a faster, more efficient, and often more affordable way to build.

How are modular homes different from 100% site-built homes?

As our NC Modular Homes are mainly built offsite (80-85% of the structure) by a North Carolina Custom Builder, they aren’t held up by weather conditions and other external complications. This means our North Carolina Custom Homes can be constructed faster than regular builds.

Modular Homes vs. Site-Built Homes: What's the Cost Difference?

One of the biggest questions when planning a new home is: “What will it cost?” While both modular and site-built homes offer high-quality construction, the cost differences between them can be significant.

Modular Homes: Smarter Construction, Lower Cost

Modular homes are built in a factory, which allows for greater efficiency, bulk material purchasing, and fewer weather delays. These savings are passed on to you.

  • 15–25% less expensive on average than fully site-built homes
  • Faster build time means lower financing and holding costs
  • Less material waste and more predictable budgeting

Site-Built Homes: Traditional and Customizable

Site-built homes are constructed entirely on location. They offer more flexibility in design but often come at a higher price due to increased labor, longer timelines, and weather-related delays.

  • Typically higher per-square-foot cost
  • Longer construction timeline
  • More exposure to cost overruns and delays
