Traditionally a Manufactured Home (Z240) is a home (Single or Double Section) that comes with a steel frame that can be placed on blocks and engineered pads as a single level home on a pad or concrete slab. A Modular Home (A277) is a home (Single or Double Section) that can come with or without a steel frame to be placed on a foundation.
The term “Modular” describes the method of construction, not the style of building.

Manufactured and Modular Homes are built in a weather-controlled environment which limits weather delays during the construction of your home. This means your home can be constructed in a matter of weeks versus months.
Modular Homes must conform to specific rules, guidelines and building codes that often surpass those of traditional on-site homes.
Affordability is a huge factor when considering Modular versus On-Site construction. Modular can be more affordable due to shorter build times which will save you money on the overall construction. Factory built homes are much more energy-efficient, so your monthly expenses can be substantially less.
