Paid $112K for 1.75 Ac in June 2021.
Home Nation price for a 1792 Ft Site Built CAT 5 home: $190,000 all in with hook ups etc. Lender Fees = $19,000. Loan 3.75% @ 360 Months
PYMT = $967/Mth + 300/Mth Taxes + 85/Mth Insurance = $1,352/Mth
Note: These numbers do not include the real savings on utilities because of the superior insulating properties of the CAT 5 Home.
Home Nation contractors can start the project within 90 Days. Prices are guaranteed.
Now let's be honest folks. There is simply no comparison between a mobile home and a site-built home, especially a CAT 5 Home! They don’t even really deserve to be on the same page….
But here we have it. A Site-Built home that costs less than a Mobile home.
