Lately, Mark and I have been dreaming about buying a little piece of land and putting up a prefab home.
But don’t mistake what we mean by “prefab,” the days of the double wide are long gone. Not that there’s anything wrong with a double wide — actually I spent my first few years in existence in one while my parents built our house. Sometimes there’s nothing better, because a few years spent in something less than ideal can eventually yield your dream home. But the thing is, these days you really don’t have to settle for anything less than ideal. In fact, you can get a pretty good start on a dream home right now for around $100-$150k. Of course, it’s easy to spend a whole lot more (see above) but the options are out there. Tons of them.
These are a few of our favorite green modular homes that run anywhere from tens to hundreds of thousands… there really is something for every budget.
Now to find that perfect piece of land…
