Comparing Off-Site/Systems-Built Construction to Other Types of Housing Construction

The Homes at Riverview Commons are Off-Site Built Homes.

ADVANTAGES OF OFF-SITE BUILT/MODULAR HOME/SYSTEMS-BUILT HOMES

  • Perform site improvements at the same time that your home is being built at the factory. Because your construction time is reduced, construction loan interest payments are minimized as well.
  • Factories pass on savings of construction materials by buying a large amount in bulk.
  • Since your off-Site building costs are lower overall than on-site, you are allowing for instant equity.
  • On-site built walls remain open to increment weather which can warp or swell wood leading to structural integrity problems.
  • Better equipment - materials cut with handheld equipment at a job site cannot compare to computerized precision cutting inside a weather protected factory environment.
  • A special adhesive, as well as nails and staples, are used in fastening components – reducing or eliminating “nail pops”.
  • To ensure safe transport, off-site homes are built with more lumber in the framing.
  • In addition to local and state inspections, factory inspections cover every construction detail to make sure every phase is constructed correctly.
  • Factories offer skilled craftsmen steady employment and benefits resulting in a consistent skilled labor force instead of workforce delays from multiple crews.
  • Reduced threat of job-site theft and damage which can add as much as 10% to the cost.

 

CATEGORIES FOR COMPARISON

The terms modular, manufactured and mobile home are often used by the general public to describe the same type of home. Determining whether a home is classified as a mobile home, a manufactured home, a modular home or another term is often confusing. Modular homes are technically “manufactured” in a home building facility. Visually, modular homes don’t appear that different and are often mistaken as site-built homes. If that’s the case, then what’s the difference? Let’s learn more about the differences – see the graphic. FYI - To make a clearer comparison, the terms Off-Site Built, Factory-Built and Site-Built are used.

A) Off-Site Built Home/Modular Home/Systems-Built Home
Examples:
  • Single Family Homes
  • Duplexes
  • Group Homes
  • Townhomes
  • Larger Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU's)
  • Modular homes are built to the most recent IRC (International Residential Code) or IBC (International Building Code), sometimes more recent than site-built homes.
  • Modular homes are built to conform to all state, local or regional building codes at their County/City of destination.
  • Modular homes are built in sections/units at a factory. Can be full or semi-custom.
  • Sections/units are transported to the building site on truck beds, then joined together by certified contractors and set crews.
  • Modular homes must be placed on a foundation (crawl space or basement), just like a site-built home. Cannot be moved once built and set on foundation. No steel frame attached.
  • Local building inspectors check to make sure a modular home’s structure meets requirements and that all finish work is done properly, just like a site-built home.
  • A well-built modular home will have the same longevity as its site-built counterpart, increasing in value over time.
  • Modular homes are usually less expensive per square foot than site-built houses and typically contain 20-30% more lumber that hasn’t been exposed to weather.
  • Modular homes are eligible for traditional financing and insurance, just like a site-built home.
 
B) Factory-Built or Mobile Homes – Built to HUD code
Examples:
  • Single Family Homes
  • Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU's) Typically less than 650 square feet - Have to meet city’s and local zoning codes. Usually placed on foundations or built above garages. Also known as: Backyard or Alley Homes, Backyard Cottages, Granny Flats, Carriage Houses.
  • Tiny Homes or Park Models RVs Less than 400 square feet. Built to ANSI code to recreational vehicles. Typically only placed where zoned for RV.
  • Also referred to as mobile homes (prior to 1976), trailers, single-wide, double-wide.
  • They conform to a Federal building code, known as HUD, rather than state/local codes.
  • Manufactured homes are built in a factory. Very little to no customization available.
  • Manufactured homes are built on a non-removable steel chassis. It is the home’s foundation.
  • Sections/units are transported to the building site on their own wheels.
  • Since sections/units are not typically placed on a permanent foundation it makes them impossible, or difficult to refinance.
  • Building inspectors check the work done locally (electrical hook-up, plumbing, etc.) but are not required to approve the structure.
  • Manufactured homes are usually less expensive than site-built and modular homes.
  • Manufactured homes typically decrease in value over time because they’re considered a mobile home. Never considered a “part of the property”, even if placed on a foundation.
  • Traditional bank financing and insurance is limited and more difficult to obtain compared to modular.
  • Resale is often difficult, unless interested party is a cash buyer.
 
C) Site-Built or Stick-Built
Examples:
  • Single Family Homes
  • Duplexes
  • Group Homes
  • Townhomes
  • Larger Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU's)
