We want to buy a chunk of land and get a custom/modular home built on it.. Does anybody have any suggestions, tips, websites to look at, or just plain person stories of your own experience with doing this? Anything would be helpful. Thanks.
Oh, and, insight on the expected costs would be helpful as well.
Modular homes?

I have been looking for a home now for about ten months. I know what I want, but I just can't find it. I can't afford much more than a monthly payment of about 00 so a 0,000 house is about the limit for me right now. I've found a nice chunk of property on a few acres for about ,000. By my way of thinking, if I can get a house on that acreage, I wouldn't have to deal with an old house that isn't up to date (which is what i've been finding in my price range). Does anyone have any experience with modular homes? Tell me your experience, please!
I'm probably looking at about a 1000-1200 sft capecod or ranch style home with a garage and a basement (not a slab). In michigan, where no one seems to have any work right now anyhow… what price do you think iw ould pay for this? Does the price of a modular home include the septic/well? if not, how much does that run? Would the price include things like toilets, cupboards, appliances? What can I expect?
