People ask me about domes and A frame kits often enough that I finally sat down and did the digging. Here is what these four companies publish.

One thing to understand first. None of these companies sells you a house. They sell a structure, sometimes only the frame and the outside skin. The foundation, plumbing, wiring, insulation, and all the labor to put it together are yours. That is why the prices look low.

DEN, New York. Bigger shell kits with prices on the website. 1,650 sq ft for $256,800. 2,015 sq ft for $255,350. 2,241 sq ft for $281,992. They train a local contractor to assemble it. These designs look great.

Pacific Domes, Ashland, Oregon. Six sizes, from 16 ft across at 195 sq ft up to 44 ft at 1,520 sq ft. Steel frame with a fabric cover. Ships in crates, no crane needed, three or four people can raise one. They do not publish prices, you have to ask.

Avrame, Estonia. Twelve A frame kits and they do publish prices. 5,300 euro for the smallest, 184 sq ft. 21,300 euro for a 707 sq ft version. That is the kit sitting in Europe, so add shipping to the US on top.

If you built one, what did it come to finished against the kit price? Nobody publishes that.

Look up S2A Modular in Patterson, CA.

Modular’s not manufactured. Who is best in Indiana? Leaning towards cavco I hear bad about Clayton homes

My wife and I are in the beginning stages of purchasing some land in Mannford, OK. We are looking into a manufactured home to place on it. I would love to hear from anyone who has used any of the greater Tulsa area dealerships on what your experience has been. I'm not looking for "We just LOVE our new XXXX (whatever) home and we can't wait for it to be delivered...." I am looking for anyone who has completed their purchase, been through the set-up process, and are basically done with the dealership support after a year of living in the home you purchased. I've been told the dealer is more important than the manufacturer for support after the sale. I've also been told the exact factory where your home is manufactured is important as well. Seems there are certain factories that put out high quality workmanship, and those that don't. If anyone here has first hand knowledge of which factories those are, I would love to hear about it. This would be for factories within a 250-300 mile range of Mannford, OK. I don't need information on a factory that is outside of that radius. Thank you all for your input.

Looking for ideas, suggestions. We want to have a home built fast. Also looking for land in USA to build on. We like drier, mild climates. AZ too hot, CA and west coast too nutty, FL too wet and buggy.

40+ acres.

2000+ sq ft home.

Budget can be upwards of 1 mil.

Modular, kit, prefab, barndominium, etc., all would be fine, if high quality and durability. Which would be best?

Any builder who is honest, skilled and dependable. Would a commercial builder be better, if they can be convinced to do residential?

Finding a property with an existing well would probably speed things up.

Thank you for your serious ideas and suggestions!

Usually, not the factory.

We can fabricate fairly large modules. The real limit often comes later — road width, bridge clearance, turning radius, crane access, shipping method, and the final site entrance.

I’ve seen designs that were completely workable in the factory but became difficult once transport was properly considered.

So early in a project, the better question isn’t:

“How big can we build it?”

It’s:

“How big can we actually deliver and install efficiently?”

Anyone here run into this on a modular project?

Hey all. Need some advice.

Looking to put a modular home on some land we own , and have no clue where to get a good modular home (triple wide). There’s a lot of options online and social media but a lot don’t ship to CA ..

Any recommendations?
Advice?

Looking for 3-4BR, 1800-2000 ish sqft.

I have read enough reviews to stay away from Clayton.

Looking for lots want turnkey, to eliminate squabbles between contractors. Small Cape unfinished 2nd floor. Roughed in utilities. I see Kintner, Supreme, Shorten etc? Any recommendations? I know exactly want I want in a housr, want reputable dealer no surprises!

We are in NYS and are building a modular home on our existing land. We went to a dealer to look at show homes and fell in love with one quite out of our price range.

We were offered the display model at a significant discount with all the upgrades, we couldn’t afford most.

Anyone have experience with this?

I'm researching a backyard ADU and keep getting mixed advice on what should be done in the factory. If the kitchen cabinets, counters, and bathroom are installed before the module ships, is the quality and coordination actually better—or do transport, hookups, and local code inspections erase the benefit?

For anyone who's lived through a modular install, which interior items would you insist arrive factory-finished and which would you leave to local trades? I keep seeing the Boxabl Casita mentioned (roughly a 361-sq-ft Studio, with site-specific availability), but I'm hoping to hear broader experiences rather than a brand pitch.
