Services
Custom Modular Homes
Custom Modular Homes are precision-engineered structures built in climate-controlled factories to meet Michigan's Residential Building Code. These homes offer superior structural durability through 20-30% additional framing lumber and adhesive reinforcement. Factory inspections ensure compliance with state standards before delivery, providing energy-efficient, low-maintenance housing solutions with customizable floor plans and exterior finishes.
Manufactured Homes
Manufactured Homes built under federal HUD Code standards feature factory-engineered construction with R-11 to R-44 insulation levels. These cost-effective solutions include 2x6 sidewalls, energy-efficient systems, and 30-year shingle warranties. Homes undergo rigorous quality control checks and third-party inspections to ensure compliance with federal safety and durability requirements.
Preowned Home Brokerage
Our licensed brokerage specializes in preowned manufactured and modular homes across Michigan. Services include market analysis, pricing strategy, and transaction assistance for sellers, plus inventory of used mobile homes for buyers. We provide expert guidance through the resale process while maintaining strict adherence to state licensing and insurance requirements.
Factory-Built Homes
Factory-Built Homes combine assembly-line efficiency with quality control through climate-controlled construction environments. These homes use kiln-dried lumber and precision jigs to ensure structural integrity, with components protected from weather damage. The process reduces construction timelines by 50% compared to site-built homes while maintaining compliance with local building codes.
General Contracting
General Contracting services cover complete home installation from foundation preparation to final walkthrough. Our team coordinates licensed subcontractors for site-specific work including utility connections, decking, and interior finishes. We ensure all additions meet local code requirements while maintaining the structural integrity of factory-built home systems.
