Three clients.
Three very different lots.

Every project is different. Every outcome is documented. These are real numbers from the last eighteen months.

We'd spent four months emailing manufacturers directly and getting nowhere. Prefab had a shortlist of three vetted factories and a site-prep contractor on our lot within eleven days. We closed in ninety-four.

I'm a retired civil engineer. I thought I could navigate this myself. The transport permitting alone — oversize load, county escort, bridge weight limits — would have taken me months to figure out. My agent handled it in a week.

Stick-built was $390k and eighteen months out. Prefab found us a factory partner doing a farmhouse model at $248k, delivered in fourteen weeks. We moved in before our lease was up.
