I've been in the modular home business (predictable snickers from certain
ones here) and I wouldn't hold my breath about some breakthrough in cost
from factory construction. No great techo-fix on the horizon. So much of
the cost of a house is site prep, permits, financing, utility
infrastructure, etc. etc. so that the savings from modulars (I leave
mobiles as a separate issue as I have no direct experience with them) will
be minimal.

But prove me wrong.

Dave
