Customize Your Modular Home!

The misconception that many people think is that modular homes are mobile homes — a mass-produced box, indistinguishable from the next. The reality is that the level of personal customization, seen and created daily at Homes by Vanderbuilt, is one of the biggest differences between Homes by Vanderbuilt modular homes and manufactured housing.

Homes by Vanderbuilt regularly builds modular homes to any specification and size requested by the homebuyer. It’s not just the difference in the number of stories, say the sales teams at Homes by Vanderbuilt. These do range dramatically, from simple bungalows and split-level ranch homes to two-story executive homes, but it’s also the Homes by Vanderbuilt amenities involved that make each home so unique — including granite kitchen counter tops, ensuites with whirlpool tubs and even specially designed wiring.

Customizing your Homes by Vanderbuilt modular home starts with selecting a basic floor plan, and then choosing options and upgrades. Sometimes buyers will bring ideas from other plans they’ve seen to Homes by Vanderbuilt and ask to incorporate specific features. Once the variables have been decided, the Homes by Vanderbuilt engineering staff reviews the plans for structural purposes. Once that’s signed off, construction begins.

Factory-built homes from Homes by Vanderbuilt are usually ready for transport just weeks after the commencement of building. While the house is being prepared by Homes by Vanderbuilt, the on-site Homes by Vanderbuilt crew prepares the building’s foundation so no time is lost when the time comes for installation.
Homes by Vanderbuilt says that simply designed units take just two weeks after being delivered to move-in, while more complex trims and customizations might require up to 90 days. However, when you remember that site-built homes (from the date of the initial order to the move-in date) can take up to a year on average, while modular homes from Homes by Vanderbuilt usually take no more than 3 months, the time advantage is clear.
