The Smarter Way To Build a Home in Murrieta, CA

 

Murrieta, California Modular Home Builders Questionnaire

Modular construction uses the same materials and adheres to the same building codes as traditional construction. The difference is that with the construction of single-family modular homes, these materials are assembled or “pre-built” inside a manufacturing facility to control quality and cost. If you imagine what it would mean to the cost and quality of your next car if it were assembled in your driveway by a group of workers, often in rainy or snowy conditions, you’ll begin to understand why modularity is the natural next step for new home construction.

 

So Why Are All Custom Home Builders in Murrieta, CA Not Using Modular Construction?

To some extent, they are. The building industry has been moving toward modular construction for many years’ cabinets, windows, roof trusses, and door systems are no longer fabricated on-site but rather built in modern factories and delivered to the site. Modular construction techniques have increased the quality, lowered the cost and accelerated the construction schedule for home builders and homeowners everywhere.

A typical site-built home may use up to 30% modularized components. Some builders have even extended this approach to include larger components such as panelized walls and pre-formed concrete foundation systems. Full modular construction is simply the next logical step in this evolution as we build homes that are 90% complete in the factory. Thousands of homes are now built every year in every part of the country using modular construction techniques. And those numbers will continue to grow as more and more homeowners and builders experience the advantages of modular construction.

Murrieta Modular Homes Facts You Should Know:

  • The building blocks of modular homes — individual modules — are housing components constructed in a controlled factory environment.
  • Individual modules are up to 90% complete when shipped from the factory to the home site. All walls, flooring, ceilings, stairs, carpeting, and even wall finish are completed in the factory before shipment.
    Once all building materials arrive at the factory, some manufacturers can assemble modules daily. Typically, a two-story, 2,500 sq. ft. home can be constructed in a factory in under a week.
  • Aside from any cost savings, modular home buyers benefit from the short assembly time of their homes — reducing any amount of weather damage or home site vandalism. Over the life of the home modular homes save money because they are incredibly efficient.
  • In 2002, modular homes accounted for 3% of the new, single-family homes constructed. Outside of the metropolitan area, that figure jumped to 12%. From 1992-2002, modular housing production increased 48%. Modular home construction has continued to increase at a steady rate.
  • One of every ten homes built in the northeast is a modular home. That region accounted for 29% of the nation’s modular activity in 2001. The South Atlantic region was a close second with 26%, and the Great Lakes region third, accounting for 24%.
  • Modular construction is quickly becoming the method of choice for single-family homeowners, developers, and general contractors who want quality, precision-built, eco-friendly new homes in Murrieta. Built by professionals who understand the time value of money and the benefit of building Faster, Better, Greener and for Less.

 

The Seven-Step Building Process for A Murrieta Modular Home

Untitled-1

Step 1: Feasibility Study and Conceptual Budget

The USMODULAR (USM) Feasibility Study and Conceptual Budget (FSCB) includes an initial site inspection of your property to determine our route accessibility, topography and availability of utilities. We will research extensively with the local jurisdiction to determine zoning, setback/height requirements, developmental/mitigation fees, architectural restrictions and permit costs. Each project presents challenges specific to that location, and our staff is experienced in identifying those needs. The non-refundable FSCB Fee will be credited towards your signed construction agreement.

USM will create a detailed preliminary construction budget based on a conceptual floor plan or the square footage of your desired home. This will include, but is not limited to, grading, foundation, fabrication, installation and finish of house, garage, site improvements, development and/or permit fees and all items necessary to complete the entire scope of your project. This budget can be used to obtain a pre-qualification for construction financing.

 

Step 2: Conceptual Design

Once a complete FSCB has been completed and it has been determined that the project is feasible, USM can then enter into an agreement to design your project. Using the information gathered in Step 1, the USM design team will work with you to refine your floor plan and exterior elevations. This can be your floor plan, a standard floor plan from a catalog like ours, or start your fully customized floor plan design.

It is during this step that the home specifications and design choices will be selected for inclusion in the plan. This can include window and door types, ceiling heights, appliances, other fixtures, interior and exterior trim and finish. These selections will allow us to separate items that will be installed at our selected building center from those that will be built on-site. Exterior additions, such as garages, decks, driveways, landscaping, and drafting the site plan can be addressed.

Based on the design and specifications, we will revise the conceptual construction budget to include an actual total construction sum that will be the basis for a construction agreement.

.

Step 3: Construction Agreement/Project Funding

Now that we have a design and budget established, USModular (USM) will prepare an all-inclusive construction agreement that will include every facet of the project, from submitting your plans for approvals to handing you the keys. As a full-service general contractor, we can provide every service needed to complete your project. Your construction agreement will include the proposed scope of work, conceptual design documents, payment schedule and allowances (if applicable). This agreement can be submitted to your lender to help secure your construction financing.

If you already have funding in place, go to the next step. However, if you need financing, the lending institution will require several items, including a budget, floor plans, elevations, and a construction agreement with USM before final approval. If you do not currently have a lender, USM has relationships with a number of lending institutions that are familiar with the off-site modular process. After the loan is approved, an escrow account will be established for disbursement.

 

Step 4: Engineering

The structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire suppression and civil engineering are all completed by state-licensed engineering firms. These drawings will become part of the approval submittal package.

 

Step 5: Permitting

If local planning approval was required and has now been satisfied, the Off-Site Modular plans are then submitted to an approved 3rd party agency, not the local jurisdiction. Then, along with the state-approved plans, USM will submit the site and building plans to the local jurisdiction, eliminating much of the back-and-forth plan review process with the local building department, saving up to 9 months in obtaining the building permits.

 

Step 6: Site Construction and Off-Site Fabrication

Once the building permit is issued, the construction of Murrieta modular homes at and off-site begins simultaneously. While USM is completing your foundation, our selected Off-Site building center is completing the structure. The multi-tiered State licensed inspection, supervision and quality control system ensures the highest quality product while conforming to all applicable building codes and industry standards. USM personnel physically visit the off-site building center during fabrication, thereby adding one more level of quality control.

 

Step 7: On-Site Completion

With the foundation completed and inspected by the local Murrieta city authorities, your site is ready to receive the modules. In one day, your bare foundation will transform into a complete structure. The modules arrive on their individual carriers and are lifted into place by a massive crane. Since the modules typically arrive with windows, doors, plumbing, electrical, heating and air conditioning, drywall, cabinets, fixtures and appliances in place, the finishing process is greatly abbreviated. Depending on if any specialized finishes were selected, the finishing process can be as short as 30 days in duration. Any related site work, such as garages, decks, and landscaping, can now be completed.

The local jurisdiction inspects the structural hardware connecting the modules to the foundation and each other and then releases the project for utility connections and subsequent certificate of occupancy.

Design

New Murrieta modular houses are designed with the customer’s dream home in mind. From a cozy granny flat to an off-site Modular mansion, your new home is made to order, giving you more creative control than working with most builders and contractors. Inside and out, this is your home, designed to match your vision.

 

Quality

The quality of today’s off-site modular home is often unparalleled due to several factors: Today’s factory equipment is powerful and state of the art, producing a tight, sound and energy-efficient home. The materials need to meet a consistently high standard because of the finely calibrated equipment being used in the factory. Your home is created in a climate-controlled environment, where the materials are protected from the ravaging effects of weather. The consistency of an overseen, assembly-line process also leaves little room for mistakes or oversights.

 

It’s Green

Green Building is a whole-system approach to building that takes into consideration seven factors:

  • Lot Design, Preparation and Development
  • Resource Efficiency
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Water Efficiency
  • Indoor Environmental Quality
  • Operation Maintenance and Homeowner Education
  • Global Impact

Using products that are not harmful to the environment while partnering with other companies that protect the environment. The bottom line is that we are certified and committed to building the very smartest, greenest custom homes on the market.

 

Speed

One of the many advantages of building modular is that your dream home can be typically delivered, set and completed in less than four months. This is considerably less time than most onsite homes, where weather concerns, small or inconsistent construction crews, back orders and equipment problems are just a few reasons for delay.

 

It’s Guaranteed

US Modular Home WarrantyPrefabricated new homes in Murrieta come with a 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty® (2-10 HBW®) that includes ten full years of structural defect coverage for load-bearing components; one full year of systems coverage against defects in wiring, piping and ductwork in electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, ventilating and mechanical systems; and one full year of coverage against defects in workmanship and materials.

 

Reduced Risk

Reduced risk to the lender involved, based on the fact that our product is delivered further along in the completion process and once set, the lender has more value on the foundation than the money they have paid out. This increases the probability of the project reaching completion.
