What Is A Modular

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SECTIONAL & MODULAR HOMES

 

We are often asked what the difference is between a sectional and a modular home. We have

Identified some of the differences below.

 

  • U.D Sectional homes are built under the H.U.D. code. (Federal)
  • Modular homes are built to individual State codes of where the home will be delivered
  • U.D sectional homes are titled and sales tax must be added to the selling price
  • Modular homes are classified as real estate and do not have titles. The manufacturer pays the sales tax.
