Haven Homes — manufacturer of custom modular homes, otherwise known as prefab homes — is currently experiencing a rare phenomenon in today’s housing market: Haven Homes is selling houses. Haven Homes customizes homes from typical rambler to mansion size at lower costs and built in far less time. Here’s a look at why buyers are choosing manufactured, modular houses from Haven Home.
Haven Homes aren’t as costly
The idea behind Haven Homes is just like typical manufactured homes. The homes are assembled in a factory, shipped and put together at a build site. The difference is that Haven Homes are way bigger, like the recent six bedroom, six and half bath built by them in Bethesda, Md.
This concept is not going to amount to struggling families who rely on quick payday loans being able to afford huge houses. The aforementioned 6 bedroom home cost $ 2.5 million. A house of comparable size built traditionally would cost far more.
Designing Haven Homes is user-friendly
“Computer-driven drafting is mapping out prefab rooms with the ease of a Lego game,” says The Washington Post. Home buyers who want customized homes can quickly and easily design the houses themselves. Part of the draw of Haven Homes is that, within certain limitations, buyers can get exactly what they want faster and easier than they would otherwise.
More people are turning to modular homes. The recession could be causing people to worry less about perceived stigma, and worrying more about saving money. I’ve seen photos of Haven Homes on the company’s web site. After they’re complete, these high-end prefab homes are indistinguishable from “regular” homes.
Hasty homes
Haven Homes modular units are less expensive because costs of labor are far less. The modular mansions take only a couple of weeks to manufacture in the factory, and just a couple of days to assemble at the building site. Everything – wiring, staircases, the outer finish, and plumbing- takes only a couple weeks to finish.
Homes similar in size take several months to complete with traditional construction. Thanks to easy customization, price and speed, Haven Homes is seeing more business in a housing market filled with mortgage loan modification and people who have been unable to sell their homes, even at deeply discounted prices.
