I saw a pro fab unit the other day. It was nice. They have energy star rated homes now from what my friend that sells them was telling me. He builds them with foam block foundations and I guess that makes a huge difference in heating costs.

I am "stick building" a post and beam house currently for myself and man it can be a pain to get people to show up to work. They will show up for a day then vanish for 8. My wife and I keep saying to a friend of ours across the street "one word modular". I know that when my house is done the quality will far surpass that of any modular home but man what a pain getting it there and the costs are going to be MUCH higher.
