Question 1

What is the difference between modular, manufactured, site-built, and tiny homes?

Accepted Answer

Modular homes are factory-built and delivered in sections, then assembled on a permanent foundation to IRC standards — they’re real property and qualify for conventional, FHA, and VA financing. Manufactured homes are built to HUD code on a permanent trailer chassis and classified as personal property, with harder and costlier financing. Site-built homes are constructed entirely on-site to IRC codes. Tiny homes are 400 sq ft or less (excluding lofts); on a permanent foundation they follow modular regulations, while tiny homes on wheels follow RVIA code like RVs. This matters because it affects zoning and placement restrictions, financing options and interest rates, insurance availability and costs, property value and appreciation potential, and building permit requirements.

Question 2

What size range do your modular homes come in?

Accepted Answer

From a compact one-bedroom to a spacious multi-section 5-bedroom layout — widths from 14′ to 36′, lengths from 20′ to 56′. Floor plan options and dimensions vary depending on state regulations, foundation type, and design preferences.

Question 3

How long does it take to build and deliver a modular home?

Accepted Answer

Most homes are completed within 12–18 weeks, depending on design complexity, customization, and site readiness. Because construction happens indoors in a controlled factory environment, your schedule stays predictable regardless of weather.

Question 4

Do you deliver to my state?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we deliver to every state in the U.S. Logistics and cost vary by distance and route.

Question 5

Are modular homes allowed within city limits or residential neighborhoods?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, yes — built to IRC standards, they typically qualify for residential zoning. Confirm with your local municipality to be sure. Our team can help you navigate zoning and permitting details to ensure compliance.

Question 6

How much does a Leland's Modular home cost?

Accepted Answer

Our modular homes typically range from the mid-$70s to $200,000+, depending on size, features, and customization level. This includes the home itself, delivery, and setup — site preparation and foundation are not included. Pricing is also influenced by size and layout, interior and exterior upgrades, foundation type, delivery distance, site preparation and utility work, and local code requirements.

Question 7

What's included in the base price of a modular home?

Accepted Answer

High-quality cabinetry, lighting, flooring, and fixtures are standard, along with premium materials including LP SmartSide siding, spray foam insulation, 2×6 exterior walls, and energy-efficient windows.

Question 8

Are modular homes cheaper than site-built homes?

Accepted Answer

Often better value, thanks to an efficient factory process, reduced waste, and shorter timelines — comparable or better quality at a more predictable price, with the added benefit of faster completion and consistent quality control.

Question 9

Do you offer financing options?

Accepted Answer

We don’t offer in-house financing or rent-to-own, but we work with trusted lending partners. Most homes qualify for conventional, FHA, or VA loans. Smaller units may require alternative financing. If you’re purchasing both land and a modular home, you’ll likely need a construction loan, and credit score requirements vary by lender.

Question 10

How does the buying process work?

Accepted Answer

Design & Quote – Choose your floor plan and finishes with help from our team. Financing – We’ll connect you with modular-home lenders familiar with our products. Build – Once approved, your home enters factory production. Site Preparation & Delivery – You prepare your site while we build your home. Final Walkthrough – We ensure everything meets Lelands Modular standards before move-in.

Question 11

Do you sell land or land-and-home packages?

Accepted Answer

We don’t sell land directly, but we can help you understand what to look for in a property, including foundation requirements, access for delivery, utility connections, and local zoning considerations.

Question 12

What features and finishes are included, and what can I customize?

Accepted Answer

You can personalize your design with a wide range of finishes: interior paint colors, cabinet styles, countertops, flooring (laminate and wood plank options), and fixtures; exterior LP SmartSide siding, Sherwin Williams paint colors, and optional skirting. We offer a wide variety of pre-designed floor plans and models to choose from, with customization available for kitchen and bathroom layouts, room configurations, and finish selections. Appliances and optional upgrades can be added to match your lifestyle and budget.

Question 13

Can I provide my own fixtures or finishes?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, yes, if they meet quality and safety requirements — coordinate with your sales advisor early in the process.

Question 14

Can you place a modular home on my land?

Accepted Answer

Yes, once the land has a foundation, utilities, and access ready. You’re responsible for permits; we’ll guide you on requirements.

Question 15

What building codes and certifications do your homes meet?

Accepted Answer

IRC standards, modular certification per state and municipality, a 131-point quality inspection, and engineer-certified plans.

Question 16

What types of commercial buildings does Leland's Modular build?

Accepted Answer

Offices and retail, workforce/employee housing, campground and RV park facilities, community support buildings (bathrooms, laundry), and short-term rental properties.

Question 17

How do modular commercial buildings compare to site-built construction?

Accepted Answer

Same codes and quality standards, but faster and more consistent thanks to a controlled factory process.

Question 18

Do you offer financing options for commercial modular projects?

Accepted Answer

We work with lending partners familiar with modular construction.

Question 19

What are RVIA certified park models, and how are they different from modular homes?

Accepted Answer

RVIA-certified units built on a permanent chassis to ANSI code (not IRC modular code) — typically 399 sq ft, semi-permanent, and relocatable.

Question 20

What features do your park models include?

Accepted Answer

A 399 sq ft footprint with optional laundry hookups, lofts, office configurations, and bunk options — finished to the same quality as our modular homes.

Question 21

Can park models be moved after delivery?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but they’re not designed for frequent travel like RVs.

Question 22

Can I use a park model as a short-term rental or guest cabin?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely — Airbnb-style rentals, resort or campground stays, employee lodging, and guest houses are all common uses.

Question 23

What site preparation is needed before delivery?

Accepted Answer

A cleared and leveled property, a permanent foundation ready to receive the home, truck/crane access, and utility connections or a hookup plan. Our team provides a detailed site preparation checklist specific to your home and location.

Question 24

What's included in delivery and setup?

Accepted Answer

Transport, setting the home on its foundation, securing and leveling, and final setup checks. Decks, porches, and skirting are optional add-ons; final utility hookups are typically handled by local contractors.

Question 25

What are the transportation restrictions?

Accepted Answer

Our Texas factory (Grandview) serves states west of the Mississippi; our Kentucky factory (Munfordville) serves eastern states. Restrictions vary by state and route. Width, length, and route considerations depend on state regulations and road access.

Question 26

Do you help with permits and zoning?

Accepted Answer

We guide you with information and documentation, but you’re responsible for obtaining permits. For certain states like Texas and Colorado, we provide elevation requirements and local regulation checklists to help streamline the process.

Question 27

What kind of warranty and service support do you provide?

Accepted Answer

A 1-year home warranty on materials and workmanship, a 10-year structural warranty, and manufacturer warranties on AC units, flooring, roofing, and appliances. We also provide regular check-ins and updates during your build, with automated email sequences to keep you informed.

Question 28

How long will a modular home last?

Accepted Answer

With proper maintenance, often 50 years or more. Because modular homes are built in a controlled factory environment, they often have tighter seals and more consistent quality than site-built homes.

Question 29

What maintenance is required for a modular home?

Accepted Answer

Check window and door seals, clean gutters and downspouts, service HVAC (filters, annual service), inspect and repaint the exterior as needed, and monitor the foundation and skirting. Because modular homes are built in a controlled environment with precision construction, they often require less upkeep over time compared to traditional builds.

Question 30

Are Leland's Modular homes environmentally friendly?

Accepted Answer

Yes — factory construction minimizes waste, we plant 20 trees for every home built, we use energy-efficient materials like spray foam insulation and efficient windows, and precision construction means less waste and better resource management.

Question 31

What makes factory construction more sustainable?

Accepted Answer

Precise material ordering, more recycling and reuse, weather protection during construction, fewer site trips, and faster completion.
