Here you will find answers to commonly asked questions; learn about how our manufactured home dealership is different, and how to pay for your new home.

What is a manufactured home?

Manufactured Homes are built entirely in a factory under the federal building code administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These homes are constructed to meet the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard Act of June 15, 1976. The federal standards regulate manufactured housing design and construction, strength and durability, transportability, fire resistance, energy efficiency and quality. The HUD Code also sets performance standards for the heating, plumbing, air-conditioning, thermal and electrical systems. HUD is the only federally regulated national building code. Each home or segment of a home is labeled with a tag that is the manufacturer's guarantee the home was built to conform to the HUD code. On-site additions, such as garages, decks and porches, often add to the attractiveness of manufactured homes and must be built to local, state or regional building codes.

Manufactured homes generally come in single, two-section, and three-section units and their dimensions range from 8 feet or more wide and 40 feet or more long.

What is the difference between a manufactured home and a mobile home or trailer?

Mobile Homes are homes built prior to June 15, 1976, when the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) code went into effect. The code was created due to poor construction methods and techniques and created a new building standard to which all mobile homes must meet.

Only those homes built before the HUD code went into effect are considered "mobile homes".

How affordable are manufactured homes in park communities compared to site-built homes in Southern California?

Compared to site-built (traditional stick-frame) homes, manufactured homes are about one third the cost per square foot. The efficiencies of building homes in factories rather than on-site allow manufactured homes to match or beat the quality of site-built homes for a fraction of the cost.

What is a “Turn-Key” solution? Will I be required to do any work on the home?

We do it all! We do the engineering... We set your home... we coordinate all of the construction. Then we do your walk through and hand you the keys. All you have to do is move in!
