PGHG -- What is a Modular Home?

Modular homes, or systems-built homes, are built to the IRC {International Residential Code}, BOCA, and other building codes, all of which are shared by site-built homes. Modular homes are built to the same building codes as site-built homes and are treated as such by financial institutions, local municipalities, etc. You must apply for a building permit, follow all local regulations for construction, and retain an occupancy permit before you may move into your new modular home, just as you would with a typical site-built home.

Typical Standard Modular Features:

5/12 pitch hinged roof trusses (or higher)
8’ flat smooth ceiling
1/2” finished drywall throughout
Ranch, Raised Ranch, T/L-Ranch, Cape , Two-Story, Chalet, Log, etc.
