Best Modular Homes Under $50,000

Best Modular Homes Under $50,000

We have selected the five best modular homes you can purchase for under $50,000. Certainly, a budget of fifty grand is quite tight to acquire a brand new house, though prefabrication enables a more affordable construction process. 

Since Modular homes are constructed off-site some companies have managed to design a model within this price by focusing in:

  • Choosing their resources smartly 
  • Strictly reducing the square feet
  • Creating functional but spacious interiors. 
  • Eliminating amenities such as bathroom and kitchen.

While prefabricated, modular homes are high quality constructions that are treated just like any site-built home, being required to be placed on permanent foundations and stick to strict regulations. The cost of these requirements is subject to each particular case and location, therefore the base price associated with each of the houses below reflects only the manufacturing cost.

  • Service area: Based in Ireland (Europe) delivers to Canada and the United States.

This Scandinavian-style cabin of only 161 square feet is small but built up to the highest quality standards. To offer the most usage flexibility, the bed is stored in the wall and the bathroom kept to the minimum size required to ensure functional usage. 

The Small Pari Cabin is a single-module modular home that is better enjoyed in nature or as an extra living accommodation not far from the main house, since even though it includes a wood stove for heating it doesn’t offer a kitchen.

DROP Box is a creative design idea consisting of small single-module homes that are easily transportable and can be “dropped” wherever needed. This interesting concept conceived by the Spanish In-Tenta designers offers a sustainable, environmentally friendly, all-you-need space.

Originally this design has been thought of as a hotel suite. Though, why not utilize this smart and good looking design as a tiny modular home to live in? The standard module comes with all the minimal necessities: fully furnished with a double bed placed under a panoramic window; a tiny bathroom with shower, toilet, and sink; a couch for the living area; a fully-equipped kitchen; and an outdoor terrace.
