Overview: The concept of factory-built housing isn’t new. Today, even conventional site-built homes are using an increasing amount of factory-assembled components. Roof and floor trusses, pre-hung doors and windows, modular cabinets and fiberglass bath and shower units are standard prefab items. Because factory-built houses are built all or partly within factory walls, construction continues year round. The article discusses four types of factory-built homes, listed in order of their completeness of prefabrication, and are described in detail. Hence, manufactured homes are the most common and affordable type of factory-built housing. These homes have helped bring the dream of home ownership within reach of young families, working people and first-time home buyers who would otherwise be priced out of the housing market.
