I recently attended the International Builders Show in Las Vegas to check out some of the newest Prefab Homes available and was surprised by a few companies I had no idea existed! One of those companies brought a 670 square foot modular with 2 bathrooms and allowed me to spend some time in the home after hours to shoot this video. The company is called Modulux and they're already building homes in the USA with 6 homes on Maui and another 40 being built. In this video I look at the Greenscape from Modulux and talk about who they are and where their homes are available. Watch to learn more about Modulux, a prefab home company that I just learned about last week!

I think a trip to Hawaii is in order. 👍
Good your getting a tan.
I LOVE this one! I once lived in a 635 sq. ft home with my ex-husband and daughter and I can tell you that even with the addition of only 35 sq ft in this home, this one look huge comparison! Like another viewer said, the only thing I would change is putting drawers in place of the lower cabinets in the kitchen. It would NOT be a deal breaker. I also really love the exterior look of it. This one is a great one, Terry!
Thats great feedback. Love a good pots/pans drawer
Kerry, what a great find! You did (again) an excellent job not only reviewing the home but making yourself a point of reference. Truly love your videos!
Thanks Robert! Appreciate that a lot
Wow. Plenty of storage while maintaining the minimalist look. My kind of place. Great vid, Kerry. Thank you!
Thanks Kathleen, glad you enjoyed it 😃
Now we're talking! Contrast this for $150K (still have shipping and logistics costs to add) with last week's offering at $240K and how much more you get than just a suggestion of a kitchen, and ho hum everything else. Well done!
Thanks!
It was awesome for you to detail out the bathroom while sitting on the toilet; CLASSIC!! LOL! Oh, and yes, it is a beautiful prefab.
Haha 🚽
The best way to give us the poop on the loo!
Kerry, thanks for spending the time and money to go all the way to Las Vegas and bring us this video! I really like this unit. I have one comment for Modulux: Wood-sided buildings in rural locations are becoming very hard to insure here in California, as I imagine will now happen in Hawaii and Texas (due to their recent fires). Even though it had stucco exterior walls, I ended up selling my California mountain house mostly because I anticipated insurance would be either impossible or extremely expensive to obtain. Even here in my semi-rural neighborhood (Santa Clarita, California), people are complaining about their insurance renewals going up 400%. While it would require an additional contractor during the building process, I suggest that Modulux offer a stucco option along with roof and eave vents be done according to code. There's a lot of exposed rafters on the patio roof...that is another problem to ponder. Anyway, thanks again and good luck to the folks at Modulux!
Hardee Siding in California! Doesn't hold in moisture like stucco.
Not sure how it would go in Quebec … maybe as a 3 season chalet ?
Well done! No laundry 😢. Now that you showed the closet in the main bedroom, my life is complete! Thank you!
Haha glad to hear that 😂
Greetings Kerry and to all who gather here. I loved this one!!! Lots of great ideas and looks for such a small place. I would like to have a dishwasher and lift the oven up to low for me. I didn't see a washer and dryer. Must haves for me. This is a beautiful home and I hope you enjoyed your trip to Las Vegas, Kerry!! Keep trucking we love you and your videos!!!
Hey Starrwolfe, glad you like this one! I am trying to think if I missed the washer/dryer or it wasnt there… 🧐
@@KerryTarnow Hi Kerry! The stackable washer in dryer is located in the closet next to the 2nd bathroom :)
My first apartment was 625 sq ft. This appears larger than 670 sq ft. I love all of the storage and large kitchen.
Storage galore
Very nice! Modern and TONS of storage compared to other tiny/small homes that I have seen. Like the clever and efficient day living/night bed room.
Glad you like it 😃
Ok, now we're getting somewhere. Price seems ok. Tons of storage, pretty good layout. If everything is in shipping containers, then easy transport. Only thing I'd change is getting rid of the ensuite bath. If you're only working with 670sf, I would be just fine with 1 bath.
Thats a good thought! I would be fine with one too
Congratulations on the sponsor! Make that cheddar Kerry.💰
Now that is a lot packed into 670 sq ft. The kitchen/dining area and bathroom are big pluses. The bathroom looks hotel quality. And the kitchen/dining area gets it all in comfortably in spite of the small space/room. The bedroom is solid and has great storage. The living room is the only space that looks like a compromise. But that’s because it is a multi use room. I’d ditch the Murphy bed and closets and I’d go with a bigger couch and bigger tv. But that’s just cause I host a lot of viewing parties. If I didn’t, I would probably be happy with it the way it’s shown here.🤷🏻♂️
The front deck is an underrated feature that this home did well. Though I would furnish it definitely, the size and shape of the front deck is a big win.🏅
Thanks for making the trip Kerry. This was a sweet walkthrough and a great first look at this company. Can’t wait to see more from your adventures at the conference/expo. 😎
Thanks Billy! Yeah the deck was very well done and even had a bar. Really should have spent more time out there.
Another excellent look at this market. And...be GRATEFUL for the non stop comments. It means they watch your videos and they care. Many other youtubers would kill for this. Keep up the good work. You are appreciated.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Excellent episode Kerry. Thanks
Thank you! appreciate that
Wow. Absolutely love that layout and appearance! I'd love to see a two bedroom version of that. Super cool.
Glad you like it 👊🏻
Thanks Kerry.. you are certainly doing the travel work! Not easy, much appreciated.
Trying to improve the videos, thanks for noticing 🙏🏻
Agreed!
Thank you for all you do! This one certainly stands out from many. It was particularly helpful to see your presence which gives a better perspective of each rooms space.
Glad to do it! Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Ooh, I do LOVE all the storage AND the second bedroom. It really doesn't look cramped for the footage. They did a nice job.
Thanks for watching
Wow! Excellent work!
thanks!
It looks beautiful. Though I feel the space would feel much bigger if there wasn't a solid wall between the living room and kitchen. If there was a dividing wall you could pull across to make it a room, the overall space would be much roomier when not needed as a guest room.
Good idea
Agree
The thing I worry about is the lack of tubs or a tub option. Life can come at you real quick. It was only a few years ago we bought our home with the walk in shower. My body is broken now and I wish we had one very much. I'm trying to figure out a cost effective way of getting one. Another great and informative video from you Mr. Tarnow.
Maybe you could put a hot tub on the deck.
The are many bathroom fitter places that can swap them out in a day or 2.
I’m planning on aging in place & was planning on a walk in shower. I broke my back a while back & would have liked not having to negotiate the side of the tub. I figured if I needed a bench I could stick one in the shower. Would that work for you?
Whatever you show, they will complain....
It’s a valid concern if you plan on selling one day. Families with either children or dogs appreciate having a tub.
I love everything about it except the kitchen. I would get rid of the table, put in a large island containing ONLY DRAWERS, no deep cabinets. It would have an overhang so you sit on bar stools. Seniors don’t want/can’t use deep lower door cabinets! We neeeeeed nice deep, wide DRAWERS. Please tell them tat, Kerry! Seniors are priced out of the housing market, and the prefab/tiny home market needs to meet their needs.
P.S. I do hope other colors would be available? I don’t relish an oatmeal colored house, inside or out.
Yes they do have other colors available. thanks for watching
I love that this is an actual HOME!!! The price is at least realistic. Love your videos and I’m glad that you’re posting more livable spaces not just pods they call HOMES!
It’s attractive inside and out. And it feels very large as you move around the home. I would have no trouble living in this at all. Cheers!
Thanks for watching Leo
Sweater savvy storage. There is so much usable storage in this unit. Best use of storage in a tiny (smaller) home space. The kitchen is incredibly impressive. Flowers and fruit are always appropriate. The kitchen cabinets are appealing to anyone who enjoys modern wood-look finishes. Impressive across the board.
Glad you like it!
Nice episode, Kerry! I agree with you that this unit appeared larger than 670 sq ft. I appreciated having one permanent bedroom, and the conversion for occasional guest to having the LR convert. (I wonder what kind of heating and air conditioning it has? Also, I wonder where the water heater is located?) Thanks for your great work at providing great info!!
Thanks Daniel! Glad you enjoyed it. I will make sure to mention those details next time 🙌🏼
Great open and functional 760 feet prefab home ! Love the open design !! Ellen
Thanks Ellen 😃
This house was absolutely beautiful. I can see the huge appeal in Hawaii. I also appreciated the accessibility. That is rarely addressed and personally needed. I think I would rather have a laundry room rather than two bathrooms. Overall an excellent home.
Glad you like it
I really enjoy these videos where you are actually with the subject product. Great job keep traveling and keep filming.
Thank you, I’ve got more planned
My last Apartment was
exactly 670 sq. Ft.
So yes, I can see how
this is the same size
& much better laid out. .
Oh thats great to hear, thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for showing at least one of the modular homes on display in Las Vegas. $150k is not cheap and with cost of land, utilities, permits, electric/water/septic systems I would wager it would cost around $225-$275 in total, to get that all done in many states in US....very nice home. Question would be....reviews of homes this company has built at least 2 years ago....so we can learn of its durability and owner satisfaction.
Great work Kerry!!
Thank you 🙌🏼
Super great job with presenting these homes...and thanks to the co. for letting you do it after their open hours; and to you for doing it after such a long and probably exhausting day. The ample storage places IS a huge plus. i like it. I enjoyed your part of the vid where when you were on the bed and told us you were continuing that part of video in a reclining position due to having a long day ...and.... It really looked like you needed that ...to where continuing to talk while standing for even another minute was too much. Your authenticity and humor makes these that much more fun to watch.
Again thanks for the effort, energy, thoughtful reviews, considering audience's input, and being attentive to detail of things that often don't get talked about or shown by others who do this. i really enjoy and look forward to these and save them for future reviewing , For now and the day that i hope to be getting one.. And will have you to thank AGAIN, for what you did (and some of the regular viewers who leave useful , valued input in comments), that will make my choosing and decisions wiser, easier and better.
Kerry, I really like this house. I could live in it and be very comfortable. I really like the outdoor space that’s where I would spend my time. If that’s not enough storage ya got to much junk. Thanks for sharing
Haha I agree!
Key Kerry, I love your channel. You’re the best resource on the internet for objective knowledge on all the new modular housing products. I was actually in Vegas touring the Modulux model while you were setting up to film the video. I was really impressed by all of the cabinetry and woodwork. The rooms feel spacious and there is an amazing amount of storage. I have not found the Show model on Tran Duc website, but it is included in the Modulux (printed) catalog from the show. The model is called Greenscape MOD.H 202A, 645sf. Unrelated; The 2024 World of Modular Convention is March 18-21 in Orlando. Have you looked at the exhibitors list? Wondering if there’s going to be anything worth touring at that show. Please keep doing what you do, thanks! Monty from Oklahoma City
Definitely thought it was a restaurant 1st but for me great value love it!!!!!!!!!
Glad to hear it!
Great Segment Kerry, appreciate it. I love that deck.
Hey Bryan, glad you enjoyed it! The deck was a great touch, even had a bar. Should have showed that 🤦♂️
@0:32, I'm already liking what I see. @2:15, I like that you can close off the kitchen from other spaces. @4:58, that is a spacious bedroom and well appointed. The Modulux is one of the best I have seen from you.
Wow! Thank you. Glad you like it
Safe trip home Kerry. It’s amazing that you get all that for only $150k while the tiny one from the Seattle manufacturer was $90k more. Is the price difference just a matter of where it is built? The quality of the materials even look better in this one. 🧐 hmm??
world class content
thank you!
Kerry, you finally found my home! Love the price.
How soon can they get one to Mendocino, California?
I would start by contacting from their website
This is the second one I've seen of your videos today.. sadly don't see a washer/dryer. That is a must have for me...
But I do like how these tiny homes are starting to morph into thoughtful designs.
Love Love Love this!!! Gret job
Thank you! Appreciate that
This is the best one I've seen yet! Many thanks!!!
Glad you like it 😃
Love the storage although pricey and there needs to be counter space to put items when u take out of the fridge, Also if it wasnt strapped closed it would have been nice to show us the inside fridge size and what direction it opened as well. U didnt mention is that a micro in the wall above a regular oven and PLEASE how many burners on that flat top for cooking too #Kerry? I ALSO need a W/D and prefer more of an open floor plan but thats just me! TYVM
Hey Pinky! Thank you for the feedback, will get more into those details next time 😃
Super nice house… thanks for the video…
Thanks for watching!
That's a really nice one ! 👍
Thanks Dale 👍
Very nice
glad you like it!
I like the Modulux Deck and pergola - very sweet. Wow! That price for 670 sq ft. I like the storage and spaciousness of the rooms. I have to admit I'm not crazy about that dividing wall between the kitchen and the living room/spare bedroom, but I see why they did it. Love all the storage but that is a lot of brown or beige - too much for me. Otherwise, a great job on their part.
Glad you like it overall. Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Love it !!
Thanks 🙌🏼
When our favorite 6ft cheeseburger is bigger than the couch ✨ giggle ✨
Hahaha 🍔
Very nice and very well done.
Glad you like it
Thanks FASTWILL!
Great Video Kerry..... You're gonna start losing that Canadian Accent you keep spending so much time south of the Border 🇺🇸
Haha no kidding, a trip to Nova Scotia will revert it back and then some in a hurry.
@@KerryTarnow Sure, a supooz🇨🇦
Ginch drawer--yay!! Beautiful home but skimped on living room space for huge kitchen/dining areas.😢 Thanks so much for the road trip!
Haha! There have been a few comments calling for the wall between the kitchen/living room to be removed. Thanks for watching 😃🙌🏼
It's beautiful but I'd change the cabinets in the living room and mount them across the entire top of the wall above the couch and get a wall to wall couch with a chaise built in that pops up with a storage space under and the bed that pulls out like a drawer and pops up from under the other cushions. They could also add a storage area/garage type of space accessible from the deck behind the living room since it wouldn't block any windows.
Great ideas! Thanks for watching
Hey Kerry “ Really like this one…when you said luxury…I braced…But, the price, not bad…will keep this on my radar…loved the pause for Station identification…( Sponsor ) more so, I love your channel…and you make the channel pop…your Wit, Humor, Personality,and Demeanor…Thank U 4 Being U…Poncho C St fingers…and, good luck finding a worthy replacement for the channel in your will….
Thanks Poncho! Glad you like it. Hoping to do a follow up with them soon
I would love to live in a tiny home but there are many problem HOA"s, don't allow them in most areas in TN., Buying the land usually has to be in an area with little necessary things, like Doctors, Hospitals within an area that has Advantage Plans in the County, being expensive to hook up electric, water sewer and if it is available in your area.
WOW great find !! That would be a perfect place for when we down size in a couple of years. I wonder what the final price would be for us here in Michigan? Keep up the good work :)
Glad you like it! Shoot them an email they might be able to provide some info for you 😀
I'm totally digging this one!!
Hey Kerry if you fly through South Carolina, come see me at the lounge in CHS, morning bartender 😊
Will do!
Nicely done Kerry. Love the stoage. Could you do a focus on Canadian companies for an episode or 2? Smaet Scale Tiny Homes in Burlington, ON is with a mention. I am buying 6 of them for an STR resort in NB. Great building materials, fire, mold and insect resistant. Good pricing as well. The exterior look is your favorite. Tell them I sent you, lol. 😊😂😮
Smart Scale Tiny Homes.
I have lots of Canadian videos planned for spring/summer. Might even be on the east coast!
Also, 6:40, if they got towels hanging in the bathroom, they want you to take a shower while you’re there. 😂
Haha 😆
going to Vegas? is there no limit to the sacrifices you make for us??
1. make second bath a half-bath with laundry. 2. drawers win over shelves every time for complete accessibility. 3. could not tell where the couch fits when the murphy bed is down. 4. deck is the real living room 👍 5. flat pack shipping in containers seems like a good candidate for semi-skilled self-assembly.
#1… great idea!!
Love this, thanks for sharing. Just curious, since your schedule seems busy - what do you do to keep in shape?
I walk a lot and try to go to the gym for a quick 30-45 min workout every day.
@@KerryTarnow Thanks for answering. That's solid, I'll have to find a way too.
Great find. Love the home! (A little more curious about the supply chain and logistics... but that aside, we'd live in one of these if I can find one in the western US at a price a modest human can afford.)
I need to dig deeper into the logistics
More about Modulux please
A follow up video is definitely in order
I love love this home! p.s. You shouldn't have taken the rob out of the closet 😬
Dont worry I put it back
@@KerryTarnow LOL....
I'm not going to lie my favorite thing is the removable thing
Hahaha 🤣
The bedroom and kitchen could be a lot smaller or do two smaller bedrooms with a bigger great room in the middle.
Good planning, my likes, plumbing close together and windows by toilet and kitchen sink.
Glad you like it!
This seems to be the future of affordable housing.
The shipping containers will allow homes to be moved all across the country by rail.
I watch a channel which revealed a gigantic railroad hub BIG which is in Barstow, Ca which gets the containers out of the ports where they are being robbed and to a hub where trains will move containers all over the country… mobile indeed!
Like it, washer and dryer?
There is a chance I missed it but I don’t remember seeing it 🧐
Washer and dryer hookup is in one of the many closets
No bathtub - I'm out, but it's beautiful especially from the outside
Thanks for watching! Glad you like it
Reallly like this home! Must be all the STORAGE! Yay!
I knew people were going to be excited about the storage
Pam here…..650-700sqft is really the sweet spot for a prefab.
For sure. Thanks for watching Pam
This model is nice all around, very spacious feel for 600 sqft. For me, the color of the wall is not appealing, but that's me. Certainly would consider this model if starting up or scaling down.
Glad to hear you like it! Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
I like this, Can you set it up for a basement?
Yes you could
Are there any styles of these homes that are less modern and more traditional? For example, any Spanish Colonial style homes that are available?
Yes there are, a lot of factories on the East Coast have that style
I want the terrarium in your will. I know how to treat a terrarium.
Hahaha!
Do they have any in America? Now I know there is a company that is about to build in Denver
they have 6 set up on Maui with another 40 under construction in the factory
Nice... BUT
CAN YOU PLEASE REVIEW MANUFACTURED HOMES IN MAINE That ARE AFFORDABLE
Good idea
The real question is who gets the terrarium.
Haha, someone already called dibs 😂
Cannot find this model online anywhere
Maybe they build this model for the show. Shoot them an email 📧
Looks like exactly what I wanted but no washer/dryer hookup?
Im trying to remember… I dont think I saw one
There is one, it is in one of the closets
You have fun videos but I live in South Dakota and what you would pay for these prefab homes it not right in SD. You should do a series by state.
Thats a great idea
Is that delivered and assembled in North America for $150,000 usd?
$150k includes delivery to California. The cost from Ca to another state is extra
Huh ❤🎉😊
No washer and dryer space?
🤔
Trying to remember if I saw one…
@@KerryTarnow LoL, those shows are a whirlwind of new ideas. I liked this home but in absence of a washer and dryer & dryer area I wouldn’t interested.
150k exclude other additionals
Washer dryer??
🧐 didnt see a set now that you mention it
The outlet is in one of the many cabinet. Accessible but nicely hidden away
Washer & dryer location?
Trying to remember if I missed it or it wasnt there 🧐
While it looks nice indeed, but what I will say is how long will it last? TO me it looks thin on the outside. I estimate about 25 years, from that point on it wear down fast and no SOLAR or wind or whever else? For $150k not worth it imo, but its decent enough if you plan to rent it for yourselves or out otherwise not great in the long run it seem to me. Good job on onsite vid may man. Keep the humor up :D love your style.
Side note; reason I ask for solar option is in our current day and age in 2024 seeming to be unstable imo, cant say the power/food will continue to truck along so its best to be self-reliance home as much as possible. IT would help the world if its comes in a all-in-one package like them Prefab, it kinda make sense in todays world.
For most of us Family will always be down the road if your human so therefore, its best to have it all figure out in advance, dont wait and side load your kids later on >_>. Your kids are not objects so yeah plan for the future. If for some that dont need or want family so I guess this Modulux is an option be a bit on the expsenive side.
I like the layout quite a bit, but boy, is that home a study in brown! Inside, outside, furniture, cabinets, brown, brown, brown, brown. It'd be like living in a taco shell. Do they offer color options?
Haha living in a 🌮 shell. Thats a new one 😂
Aloha ,must be nice
Haha 😂
Well someone has to pay for the Vegas trip 😅😅
Makes it all possible! Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Purty dang cool. Don't care where thems made, jes gimme 1. Oh & closets are important for ladies & olders with alotta stuffs to hide, see....
Glad you like it James, thanks for watching 🙌🏼
The short window curtains nor the interior colors are not doing that unit any favors. The layout looks good though.
Thanks for watching!
Will? Yes, they will all be fighting over my negative bank balance.
Haha
These aren’t homes these are Promenade Restaurant Bar Homes. Welcome to my Cooking” todays Special dish. Modular Pizza at your demand size.
ginch didn't mean what I thought it meant.
Haha
Challenge: drink every time you hear the word storage. Good luck!
