Dec 15, 2005 -- Factory built homes growing in popularity
Housing costs have increased so much in recent years that the value of a dollar toward a home just isnt what it used to be. Since 1986, Clark has believed that people would be much better off if they built their homes in factories instead of having them built on site. It may seem like youd get better quality doing it on site, but that is not the case. Its very haphazard with unreliable workers and lack of building standards. In a warehouse, its much more exact and yet every house is unique. One magazine, Dwell, has its own line of high-end factory built homes. And its something that is growing in popularity across Europe. The homes can be built for much less and takes just a fraction of the time. One designer can build a home for $45,000 and put it in place in one day. That doesnt include the time it takes for the site to receive the house. But once its ready, one day gets it done. Well start to see this more often in the States, mostly in cold months at first.
