Advantages of Modular Custom Homes

When it comes to buying a house, there are plenty of things to consider. However, none of them should involve compromising on your favorite features. At Carolina Custom Homes, we design our floor plans to be completely functional and customizable, so you get everything you need when you build your dream home.

Overall, there are plenty of advantages to building a modular home. Besides our customization process, we are also a greener, more affordable solution to traditional home building.

Modular Homes are Energy Efficient

It’s no secret that building a home requires plenty of building materials, but what if we told you there was a better and greener way to make your home? The solution – building an energy-efficient modular home.

At Carolina Custom Homes, we keep our building methods efficient and straightforward, making them highly eco-friendly. How do we do this? By using recycled materials in our building process while making a conscious effort to produce less waste. Using recycled materials and focusing on green construction methods means we can reduce our total project waste by 75%. Now, you won’t just have the home of your dreams – you’ll have an environmentally-friendly home you feel great about living in.

In addition to our green building methods, we also make sure we create energy-efficient modular homes. We do this by using more energy-efficient components throughout our building process, in addition to a high-efficiency truss system, to help make your home more green and affordable. From less drywall to superior insulation, we use eco-friendly building materials every chance we get so that you can feel great about your new home. With our energy-efficient building materials and methods, you’re not just getting a greener home – you’re getting a more affordable home. Thanks to our green construction methods, you’ll see lower energy bills at the end of every month.

Modular Home Prices are Affordable

Buying a home is a long-term investment, but getting the home you’ve always dreamed of shouldn’t break the bank. At Carolina Custom Homes, we design and manufacture our homes to be more cost-effective, so our customers can get everything they want during the home building process.

The reason modular homes are more affordable than traditional stick-built homes is due to building process and overall cost. When you compare modular vs. stick-built homes, stick-built homes often experience delays in the construction process and have more expensive costs because they build their home on site. Any severe weather or delays mean more time spent working on your home, with increased labor and material costs. Meanwhile, modular homes are constructed in a secure, climate-controlled facility, using recycled materials that are more cost-effective. You won’t face the same setbacks, or material costs, thanks to the controlled environment.

In addition to fewer material costs, the average price per square foot of a modular home is significantly less than a stick-built home. For instance, the average cost to build a traditional home can start around $210 per square foot but will vary depending on where you’re building and what features you’re adding.

Compared to a stick-built home, the average price to build a modular home starts around $130-$145 per square foot and is typically 15% – 20% lower than the average cost of a stick home. However, many times modular homeowners opt to add other features to their home, such as basements, garages, or rearrange the layout of their floor plan. These additional features increase the overall price of your modular home, so it’s best to select add-ons that you’re genuinely passionate about. In the end, modular home prices are more affordable than traditional stick-built homes.

Modular Homes are 100% Customizable

When you’re looking for a new home, sometimes it’s difficult to find every feature on your wishlist. The perfect kitchen, master bedroom, or even a basement can be a dealbreaker during your search. Luckily, you don’t have to compromise on what you want when you decide to build a modular home.

As modular home builders near you, we understand how important it is to get everything you want on your wishlist. That’s why we make our modular home building process 100% customizable, so the next time you move, you’re settling into your forever home.

Our modular home customization process is incredibly straightforward, thanks to our excellent team of designers. When you choose to build your home with Carolina Custom Homes, we promise to guide you through every step of the process, so you feel confident in your design decisions.

After selecting your modular home floor plan, one of our designers will meet with you to discuss the layout and design of your home. During this time, you’ll be able to decide which modular home features you’d like to remove or add to your home. You’ll have the opportunity to move walls, change rooms, customize your kitchen cabinets, and modify other features within your home’s floor plan. The only thing we can’t do is alter the square footage of your home.

Finding the right home for your family can be difficult, but we simplify the modular home customization process from start to finish by your team by your side.

Modular Home Builders are 100% Reliable

Building a home can be stressful at times, but with Carolina Custom Homes of Burlington, you’ll know what to expect before, during, and after construction. Traditional stick-built homes often experience construction delays because of harsh weather conditions or other on-site problems. Your 10-12 month build time could take even longer, forcing you and your family to wait even longer for your dream home.

At Carolina Custom Homes, we understand how important it is to get the custom home you’ve always wanted on time. That’s why we’ve created a custom home building process that doesn’t have the same setbacks as traditional stick-built construction. By building your home in a climate-controlled facility, we’re able to stick to our planned modular home construction timeline. You’ll move into your new home as soon as possible and without the usual construction delays.

Instead of talking to builders who can’t provide an accurate timeline, you’ll work with modular home builders who care about the construction and safety of your home. You’ll receive updates throughout your project, and your home builders will be sure to let you know how things are progressing.
