Prefab homes — short for “prefabricated” — are constructed away from the home site in a factory, then shipped in sections to the customer’s property for assembly. These homes can often go up much faster than traditional stick-built houses, and at a lower cost. They can be single-family or multi-family and can often be customized to the customer’s specifications, though not to the same extent that a custom-built traditional home might be.
Advantages of Standard Prefab Houses
Superior Energy Efficiency
One of the advantages of prefabricated homes is that they tend to be very energy efficient. Their tight seams and advanced windows keep the interior temperature low, which reduces energy bills. The compact construction of modular homes also gives them a reputation for being able to withstand natural disasters. If you ask many people, “What is a prefab?” they will assume it is the same as a mobile home. This is not the case, however, and prefabricated (aka modular) homes require a foundation like any other home.
Fast Construction
The speed of construction is a big advantage of prefabricated homes. Because the components of a prefabricated home are ready to go, you just need to assemble them and connect the water and electricity. Hence the term “modular.” Because prefabricated homes arrive partially completed, they are faster to build. This means workers spend less time on site and are less affected by weather delays and illness, which can extend the construction process by days or even weeks. There is more to consider than just construction time, though. Site preparation, including obtaining permits, can be a lengthy process.
Affordability
It is often cheaper to build a standard prefab home than to build a similar wood-frame home. Not bad, right? Part of the savings is labor-related. It takes fewer workers and fewer days to build a prefab home to be ready for occupancy. This can save you money. Also, as we mentioned, heating and cooling costs for prefab homes tend to be more affordable than for regular homes. If you’re willing to buy an existing home, compare the cost of existing homes on the market to the cost of building a prefab home. Keep in mind that different levels of accessories and customization can raise or lower the cost of a prefab home. Talk to the manufacturer about available cost-cutting strategies.
Factors Influencing the Cost of Standard Prefab Houses
When considering the cost of prefab homes, several factors come into play that can significantly affect the overall price. It’s like putting together a puzzle; every piece needs to fit perfectly to see the full picture. Let’s break down these factors to help you understand how they might impact your budget.
Size
The size of your prefab home is one of the most straightforward factors affecting cost. Generally, the larger the home, the higher the price. This is because larger homes require more materials, labor, and possibly a more complex foundation.
Design Complexity
A prefab home with a simple, rectangular design will cost less than one with multiple stories, intricate rooflines, or large expanses of glass. Complex designs may require special engineering and more materials, which can drive up the cost. Think of it as choosing between a basic car model and one with all the bells and whistles; the latter will always cost more.
Customization Level
Prefab homes offer a range of customization options, from basic layouts to high-end finishes. The more you customize, the higher the cost.
Land Preparation
Before your prefab home can be installed, the land must be prepared. This can include clearing trees, leveling the ground, and installing a foundation. The more work your site requires, the higher the cost. It’s akin to preparing a garden bed for planting; a rocky, weedy plot takes more work and money to prepare than a plot that’s already cleared and level.
Utility Connections
Your prefab home will need to be connected to utilities like water, electricity, and sewer systems. If your site is far from existing utility lines, the cost to extend these services can be significant. Imagine you’re setting up a campsite; the further you are from the water source, the more effort and equipment you’ll need to bring water to your site.
Typical 7 Step Process of Off-site Construction
Site Visit and Concept Budget
Developing real estate is a challenge. Our goal is to do the research upfront to help you determine the best size and building type for your project. We will conduct a feasibility study and site visit and concept budget (SVCB), which includes a preliminary site inspection of your property to determine buildable area, accessibility to building module transportation routes, topography, and availability of utilities. We will conduct research with local jurisdictions to determine zoning and setback/height requirements. Our company will develop a preliminary construction budget based on the conceptual floor plan or area of your desired home. This will include, but is not limited to, grading, foundation, fabrication, installation and finishing of the home, garage, site improvements, estimated development and permitting fees, and all items required to complete the entire scope of the project. Final development fees and utility costs will only be determined once the local building department approves the plans. The non-refundable SVCB fee will be added to your signed construction agreement.
Concept Design
Once the SVCB is complete and it is determined that the site can accommodate the home you want and the budget is acceptable, we can then enter into an agreement with you to design your project. Using the information gathered in Step 1, the Company’s design team will work with you to refine your floor plans and exterior elevations. This can be your floor plan, a pre-designed floor plan, or a completely custom design. During this step, house specifications and design options will be selected to be incorporated into the plan. This can include window and door types, ceiling heights, appliances, other fixtures, interior and exterior trim and finishes. These selections will allow us to differentiate between items that will be installed at the selected manufacturing facility and those that will be built or installed on site. Site-built items such as garages, decks, driveways, and landscape plans can be included. If your jurisdiction requires planning board approval, you will now have a complete set of floor plans, elevations, and site plans that can be submitted for conceptual approval. Based on the design and specifications, we will revise the conceptual construction budget to be the actual total construction amount as the basis for the construction agreement. The non-refundable design fee will be factored into your signed construction agreement.
Construction Agreement/Project Funding
Now that we have finalized the design and budget, we will prepare a complete construction agreement that can include every aspect of the project, from permit processing, onsite and offsite construction, utility installation, completion… As a full-service general contractor, we can provide every service needed to complete your project. Your construction agreement will include the proposed scope of work, conceptual design documents, payment schedule, and allowances (if applicable). Your lender will need this agreement to complete your loan. If you have already been funded, proceed to the next step. However, if you need financing, your lender will need several items from you before final approval, including a budget, floor plans, elevations, and a construction agreement with us.
Engineering
Permitting for building a home offsite is done at the state and local level. We will work with engineers, mills, and state approving agencies to obtain a set of state-approved/stamped building plans that are packaged together with site plans, foundation plans, and other local building permit plans required by local building departments.
Permitting
Permitting for off-site built homes is done at the state and local level. We will work with engineers, factories, and state permitting agencies to obtain a set of state-approved building plans that are packaged with site plans, foundation plans, and other local building permit plans required by local building departments.
On-site construction and off-site manufacturing
Once a building permit is issued, on-site construction and off-site home construction can begin simultaneously. While we complete your site work (including grading, utilities, foundations), our selected off-site manufacturing facility is completing the building modules. The state permitting agency at the facility inspects the modules. The state-licensed inspection, supervision, and quality control system at the manufacturing facility ensures the highest quality construction while meeting all applicable building codes and industry standards. Staff personally visit the off-site manufacturing facility during the manufacturing process, adding an additional level of quality control. On-site construction is inspected and approved by the local building department.
Site completion
Once the foundation is complete and inspected by the local jurisdiction, your site is ready to receive the manufactured home. Typically, your foundation is transformed into a complete structure within a day. The modules arrive on site on their own individual bays and are usually lifted into place by a large crane. The completion process is greatly shortened because the modules typically come already installed with windows, doors, plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning, drywall, cabinets, fixtures, and appliances. Depending on if any special finishes were selected, the completion process can be as short as 30 days. Any additional site work, such as garages, decks, and landscaping can now be completed. The local authority of jurisdiction inspects the structural hardware connecting the modules to the foundation and to each other, then releases the project for utility hookups and a subsequent Certificate of Occupancy. Once the home is complete, we will give the client a tour and hand over the keys to your new home!!
