What is the difference between Modular Homes and Manufacture homes?
modular home is home which locate inside of any firm or industry.A modular home is one that is built indoors in a factory-like setting. The finished products are covered and transported to their new locations where they will be assembled by a builder. A modular home is not a mobile home; it is simply a home that is built off-site as opposed to on-site. These homes are often called factory-built homes, system-built or pre-fab homes. Modular and Manufactured homes are NOT the same. Manufactured homes are not placed on permanent foundations. Manufactured homes, sometimes referred to as mobile homes, but are not always mobile homes, can be moved from one location to another. There are specific laws and regulations regarding these relocations. Thanks to publications such as Dwell, the popularity of the modular home is growing.

Is there a stigma on Modular homes?
There is no stigma for modular homes that I know of,but a lot of people are miss informed about modular construction. Most people are confusing mobile homes with modular homes and there is a stigma about mobile homes and mobile home parks. Another confusing part is the term that is used to describe mobile homes. The term "Manufactured Housing" has been adapted by the mobile home industry to alleviate the stigma of mobile homes. Of course uninformed people bundle modular homes in this mix since modular homes are constructed in a manufacturing facility and are transported, but that is where the similarity if any ends.

I believe Modular Homes are built in sections while a mobile home is one piece. Mobile homes probably move more easily. Modular Home = Factory-built housing with onsite assembly and some onsite construction that is built to meet state and local codes and does not have a chassis. Mobile Home = Trailer or trailer-like dwelling unit (has a chassis and removable wheels) manufactured in a factory and designed to be transported to a site and semipermanently attached. The preferred industry term is manufactured housing.
