Due to the subprime mortgage crisis, there are plenty of bad news about the finacial markets. Many homes are on the market now due to the fact that many are not able to afford the payments on their rising adjustable ARM mortgages. After surrendering their houses to the banks, where are these people going to live now?
Many of them are moving back in with families and are just making do with whatever they can; some others move to smaller homes. However there is no need to downsize into a really a small space as the modular home comnes to the rescue. Some decent housing is possible and easily affordable without breaking the bank.
The term “modular home” also commonly known as “manufacture red homes”, gives people the wrong impression of trailer trash which is simply not true. Modular homes are made to order, well built and upscale homes that are prefabricated and built completely in the factory to be transported to your desired location and set on your new foundation. A spacious modular home will only set you back by just over $100,000 or even less. Overall the expense is quite small and you have a brand new house though there are extra costs of hooking up utility lines and foundation.
Consider a modular home as an option that is customizable, value for money, and require only a short wait before moving in. Most suitable if you do not want a smaller home but a new and spacious one!
VA and FHA loan programs cover such home. Customizations are allowed - you decide your floor plan, specify cabinet types and even the stud size of the boards in the walls. Review your options with a representative of the company. Expect your new home within 8 weeks to a few months depending on the production schedule and backlog. The process is a breeze.
