Modular (Flat pack) Homes anyone been in one yet ?

[Dustydazzler]

These are quite interesting

Goodbye, bricks and mortar? We visit a factory which pumps out two houses A DAY - and one in five homes could be built this way by 2030

I have seen them on Tv but never been in one , do they feel like a regular house or more like a glorified mobile home ?

At least being factory built they'll be some quality control.

I think the statement that 20% of homes will be built like this in 9 years is very optimistic.
Mortgages aren't going to be easy to get, especially 30 year.
(sharp intake of breath) Non standard construction Sir /Madam, with no proven track record.
I'd guess they're being built for rental with Commercial loans on them.

I'd imagine you can't tell the difference internally, they're basically a timber framed building with brick slips glued on or high performance render.
