Manufactured Homes The modular housing idea is not new. Sears Roebuck offered a prefabricated modern home in their spring 1908 general catalog, which was shipped by train. Sears sold around 100000 of these homes from 1908 to 1939. The use of production line techniques really kicked into high gear after World War II and made a sizable contribution to reducing the housing shortage at that time.
Modular Homes are Superior Manufacturers are located to make the most efficient use of transportation, materials and labor. Therefore, the houses can be built better and more efficiently and more economically. Also, there is less waste and none of the theft, vandalism and weather damage common with stick-built construction. After delivery to the site, all factory-built housing can be assembled, closed in and occupied in a matter of days or weeks.
Iowa Factory Built Home Most manufactured homes are constructed entirely within a controlled climate. Construction continues year round and assembly line workers dont need to be skilled carpenters and are paid about half of what on site contractors are normally paid. Many of the laborers working in the modular housing industry have steady jobs with benefits and can afford to buy the products they make.
