How Much is this modular home? |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
That is the first question everyone asks when they see a house they like. How else can you determine whether you can afford it or not? You don't want to pay for someone else's equity, land prices are coming down and it is a great time to build.
First, it is important that you understand how a house-building project works. Epoch acts as a subcontractor to Sparkling Homes of New England. Sparkling Homes of New England manages the project, hiring the excavator, septic installer, well driller, foundation crew, electrician, plumber, carpenters, etc. Epoch Homes supplies the house, which arrives in varying degrees of completion depending upon the size and complexity of the structure.
Epoch’s set crew installs the house on the foundation, typically a one or two day operation. Epoch does not provide any other site crews (carpenters, roofers, etc.). These are all arranged by the Sparkling Homes of New England.
In some circumstances, the home owners want to participate in or manage a project. Many states including Massachusetts and many banks require that a licensed contractor manage a project. Sparkling Homes of New England has the required licenses. All new builders of Epoch Homes also participate in a two day Builder Training Seminar at the Epoch facility.
If the home owner wants to accept some of the subcontracting responsibilities, it must be negotiated with Sparkling Homes of New England. Regardless of any agreements the home owner and Sparkling Homes of New England agree to, the Sparkling Homes maintains ultimate responsibility for the project. We also retain responsibility for making sure that the site is prepared properly so that the crane and modules can access and set up without delay.
We are responsible for assuring that the foundation is square and level. Additionally we are responsible to administer warranty claims or customer service requests.
So, six paragraphs later, the question still remains “How much does this house cost?” To answer that question in full, you will need to sit down with a representative from Sparkling Homes of New England. We will explain how much the house is delivered to your building lot, and what the rest of the project entails, and what to expect from the local subcontractors for prices. Please make an appointment with Sparkling Homes of New England to discuss your budget and needs.
