Manufactured home are homes that are factory-produced and then transported to a site where they are installed with or without a permanent foundation. Manufactured homes have revolutionized the American housing market over the last few decades by providing quality housing for affordable prices. Recent estimates show that neatly one out of three homes sold in the past few years have been manufactured homes.     

 

San Diego's manufactured home market is huge. There are over 100 San Diego manufactured home trailer parks of various sizes and prices across the county. A few of the manufactured home trailer parks are age restricted communities that cater to the elderly. However, most of them are family trailer parks.                                                       

 

Each San Diego manufactured home is designed to conform to Federal building code laid down by the Urban Housing development. As a lot of manufactured home developers use the latest software for designing, there are a wide variety of floor plans available to prospective buyers of San Diego manufactured homes.                                         

 

Individuals can choose from a variety of colors, quality of carpets and wall coverings for their homes. Other features which are being provided in San Diego modular homes these days include custom made cabinets, French windows and wood-burning fireplaces. Individuals also have a choice of whether they want a territorial stucco finish or pro-panel metal for their modular home.                                                                          

 

While there are many variations available in floor plan, there are two structures of San Diego modular homes widely available. Single-wide mobile homes are sixteen feet or less in width and can be towed to their site as a single unit. Double-wide mobile homes are usually twenty feet or more wide and are towed to their site in two separate units, which are then joined together. Some of manufactures produce triple wide homes, but these are on rare occasions.                                                                                                           

 

When buying a San Diego manufactured home, prices need to be kept in mind. The sales price for new manufactured homes cab range from $25,000 for a single wide unit with basic features to prices in excess of $100,000 for a double-wide home with deluxe features.                                                                                                                              

 

The cost of the San Diego modular home ultimately depends on the cost of the land in which it is situated.  Owners of these manufactured homes also need to factor in that they will have to pay a maintenance fees every month for upkeep of the trailer parks. Again depending on the location this could be anywhere from $ 75 to $ 200.             

 

However, all things considered. A San Diego manufactured home is at least 30 per cent less expensive then a regular home. In San Diego this is a big saving.
