Pre-Fab Homes?

Posted by Cliff on from the do-it-yourself-domicile dept.

itwerx asks: "I am considering purchasing a pre-fabricated home to put on an empty lot in an urban area. I have researched hither and yon and Googled to my heart's content and found great gobs of information online. The question here is what the SlashDot community's own experience has been with this type of technology? Anybody purchase a pre-fab home recently? What was your experience like?"

    I work in construction, we've worked on a few modular homes and from what i've seen you can find some well build ones.

    We did some repair work on one last winter, a tree had fell on the house and it was barely damaged.

    This particular house was build WAY above code, it was very empressive. I wish i knew who manufactured it, i would have recommended them highly.
