Manufactured Housing

Did You Know?

A manufactured home is built in a factory, according to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards of June 1976 (commonly known as the HUD Code) and secured on a permanent, nonremovable steel frame or chassis. The home can be built as one complete section, or in multiple sections, and transported, assembled and installed at the home site. Manufactured homes are 48% less per square foot than site-build homes (on average, $87 vs $166).
