What is a Modular Home?

A modular home is manufactured in factories, in sections, transported to the site, gets assembled at the site, and installed on the foundation by the builder/owner.

What is a Stick Built Home

A stick-built or traditional home uses wood frames to create the walls and roof truss. This wood frame supports plywood/drywall or other material. They are built over the site from scratch.

Modular homes vs Stick built homes

A modular home is produced in sections in the climate-controlled factories (off-site) and then trucked over to the site where it gets assembled. However, a stick-built home is completely built on-site from scratch.

Modular homes vs Stick built homes

They both follow the local/regional/state level building regulations. Once it is built there is no difference between the modular homes and stick built.

7 Differences between Modular Homes and Stick Built Homes

APPEARANCE

Appearance is somewhat the same. Once constructed there is no difference between the modular and stick-built home.

BUILDING CODE

Both follow Local/regional/States building code.

FLOOR PLAN

Modular homes are manufactured in the factories therefore you have limited options for the floor plans. Whereas in the case of stick-built, you can customize it as per your like.

TIME TO BUILD

In the case of modular homes, the entire process can take 16 to 31 weeks whereas site stick homes take a little longer about 28 to 37 weeks.

COST

Modular homes are 10-20% less expensive than stick-built homes.

RESALE VALUE

The resale value is somewhat similar. The value of both the Modular and Stick Built homes appreciates over time.

DURABILITY

Since they both follow the same Local/ Regional code thus they both are similarly durable. However modular homes need to be transported thus it is made a little more stronger than stick built.
