That was very helpful and didn't take 30 minutes, which is what I appreciate the most.
Short and to the point. Thanks for sharing.
That was straight to the point and gave me just the information I needed thus far. Thanks
Clear & concise explanation! Thanks for not talking talking talking for 30 minutes about nothing before giving the explanation! Brilliant!!!
Great explanation. Straight and to the point. No extra talking for no reason. Thanks!
From my understanding is modular homes are the same as a typical construction but they framing etc is done off site and brought to the land.. Sears used to have "modular homes" catalogd back in the day where they had diff models etc where the framing and roofs were pre built in a warehouse and then basically put together onsite vs regular construction where framing is done on the land.
Manufactured homes from my takeaway are a nicer term for "mobile homes/trailer homes"..
Thanks so much Darnell, for your help.

Hi ,I have a question...
Can you build equity on a manufactured home on land ? Permanent foundation is it the same ?
Great info, thanks!
If you roll your manufactured home into the land and put that house on block Fondation and remove anything that makes your home a mobile .
It becomes a legally standard home, and just as valuable.
Great comment Connie....my wife and I were thinking the same way...buy a beautiful new MH and permanently affix it to the land via a concrete slab like " regular " housing
The framing on a mobile home uses smaller studs , no drywall but a thin layer of panel ,so its weaker.
@JAR no it doesn't. You should do more research before running your mouth. I'm looking at a one right now that has 2x6 walls and roof trusses, along with r38 I the ceiling. You can order them with panel, or drywall. You really can not tell the difference between the 2. Stick built houses still use 2x4 walls. Trailers in the 70s and early 80s used 2x3. The standards are very strict now because of building codes. Oh, 2x8 floor with tongue and groove subfloor. The drywall upgrade in the home is a 2,500 dollar upgrade. Even of you walk into a place to check them out, they don't have the floor finished in the middle so it's easier to take it apart. You even get basement access built into them.
WRONGO!!!!
Removing the tongue and wheels does NOT make it a modular home. It is still on a chassis and frame and can be removed from the land. It is has title not a deed...etc.etc.
Thank you..
Thank you🌻

But yet this video played right after I watched permanent concrete foundations for manufactured homes.
Can you recommend a modular company in the southeast Queens NY Area?
Is modular the same as pre fabricated?
You look beautiful! :) Great video!
Nice informative video. :-)
NEXT TIME YOU JUST SAY :
MOBILE MANUFACTORY = TIRES.
MODULAR HOMES = FOUNDATION IN CONCRETE
Thank you!!!!
@@justacutie5201 mobile = no property taxes /modular anchored pay property taxes , nothing is permanent.
@@johnbeam847 You don't pay property taxes on a mobile home? I had no idea. What if I want to have a basement built under a mobile home. Can that be done? how would that work?
@@AandP4dummieslikeme No, you do pay taxes on Manufactured homes but it is a separate tax you have to pay. It is not included with your property tax. I have a Manufactured home and it is on 1 acre. I pay property tax on the 1 acre and I pay property tax on the manufactured home separately. The tricky part is when the county applies the Homestead exemption. On mine, the county splits the exemption between the land and the manufactured home. Not all counties are willing to do that so you have to check with your county tax office to see how they handle it. As far as Homeowners insurance, I like the coverage I get on my manufactured home. I have 100% REPLACEMENT coverage which I don't think you can get on a site Built or Modular home. That means I don't suffer any depreciation on claims on my home or property.
I have lived in Mobile homes and Manufactured homes since 1982 and I would never pay for a site-built home. They are way overpriced for what you get.
One thing to keep in mind is, should something ever happen with you financially and you couldn't pay for your home the actual home is all you would lose. In other words, if you put your manufactured home on family land but for some reason, the mortgage company foreclosed on your manufactured home you won't lose the family land. On a Modular home, the home is part of the land and if you lose the house you also lose the land with it.
whats the difference between prefab and modular?
Mobile homes go down in value over time. Modular homes go up.
That is not true in Ellis County Texas. The value of my mobile home on 1 acre of land doubled from last year. Two years ago I could not get more than $150,000 for my place but this year 2022 I was offered $350,000 cash for it. While houses in other parts of the country fall the homes around here continue to climb like there is no tomorrow.
@@paulwelch6235This is a misconception, the land went up in value not the home. Their value went up only because of inflation in reality it went down.
Can you rehab a modular home?
What the price of a modular
great video... how long does a modular home last?
As long as any stick built house. It's built to the same specifications as a standard on site stick built home.
Are modular homes the same as prefab?
I was thinking both are manufactured.
I still didn't hear the real difference between the two. Do they use different types of windows in a modular home? Do they use a different kind of stud in the walls? Do they use different insulation? Do they use different kinds of siding? Do they place the studs on 12" centers vs 16" centers? Do they put fire blocks in the walls? I mean there has to be something to double the cost of a Modular home. So, what is that difference? I don't see it.
After watching tons of videos about both modular and manufactured homes, I gotta say I agree with you on many of those points. It seems to me like it depends a lot on the manufacture, and the model/price point. I've seen manufactured homes that seems to have a very good build quality, but also modulare homes that seems very similare to a low-priced manufactured home.
These are the questions I was hoping this vid would answer. Guess I need to keep looking for another vid.
Some of the main differences are ( Roof Pitch, Drywall, Floor Joist, and Ceiling height.
Double wides have 2x6 for floor joist modular has 2x10.
Double wide roof pitch is 2/12 to 3/12 while modular is 6/12 pitch
A Manufactured(Mobile) has a frame you can move it and a Modular Home is permanent you cant move it.
Thanks
you wont be able to take equity out on a manufactured home, refinance yes equity no. and youll have a problem with insurances when having a manufactured home.
Modular homes can be moved again. It just comes at a cost.
There will be an explosion of these. Just read a company due to shortage of traditional brick homes, will start to make and rent out modular homes. And now they will own even more of the Florida market for single family home rentals.
Next time show a video from both and show the tire 🛞
Right away I noticed “FAT” in the background lol
I thought i both were rvs lol
You should work on your grammar
