When Lisa and Chuck Forman began planning their return to the U.S. after years of teaching overseas, they knew they wanted a peaceful place to call home — and a building process they could trust from thousands of miles away.
Their journey led them to Spur, Texas and to working with Leland’s Modular, a trusted modular home builder, with factories in Texas and Kentucky, known for quality craftsmanship and a dependable process.
“We did this from 9,000 miles away — and they made it easy.”
Choosing a Texas Modular Home Builder They Could Trust
Like many homeowners, Lisa and Chuck began their search online, exploring housing options that offered quality, efficiency, and design flexibility. They were drawn to the advantages of a custom modular home, especially the precision of factory-built modular home construction.
During a visit to Spur, they met our representative who showed them several modular homes already installed in the community. Seeing completed homes in a real neighborhood gave them immediate confidence in the quality of our residential modular construction.
Designing a Custom Modular Home Remotely
Lisa and Chuck later toured our Grandview, Texas facility and worked closely with our team to design a custom-built modular home that fit their lifestyle.
What makes their story remarkable is that most of the planning happened while they were nearly 9,000 miles away. Through consistent communication and digital coordination, every design decision was handled smoothly.
Lisa had specific customization requests — lighting above the windows, expanded closet space, and thoughtful interior layout details. Each feature was carefully incorporated, proving that distance does not limit personalization when working with an experienced modular home builder.
“We were very impressed with the quality of the workmanship.”
Quality Craftsmanship in a Custom Modular Home
When Lisa and Chuck finally saw their completed modular home in Texas, their reaction reflected exactly what we aim for on every project.
They shared that the experience exceeded their expectations in every way and that the finished home turned out beautifully. Feedback like this reinforces the strength of modular home construction — precision building, controlled environments, and consistent quality standards.
They also noted something we take pride in: doing business the old-fashioned way. For us, that means honest communication, patience, and treating customers like partners.
