My grandparents ordered their house from Sears and grandpa and my great uncles built it over a summer weekend.

Damn thing still standing and is now I think on a historical register.

But today… we can do the same thing. You want a single or double wide?

Ooh until you check the prices of a manufactured home (trailer / caravan) and find out how unaffordable they are. Bonus you can't get a traditional mortgage for one.

Also only a few companies will insure them. I think Foremost and State Farm were my only two choices. It wasn't something I considered when I bought my run down double wide manufactured home.
