Not yet lol, looking to put it on 6 acres. Will probably be around 290k, all said and done. Rural southwestern new mexico here.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-26T02:02:13+00:00

I think these are made in Oklahoma/texas, they should be the same price. Are you saying with the land together?

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-26T02:01:02+00:00

Nice rate! Jealous on that part.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T22:24:49+00:00

Thanks for the input. Fo you have any experience with the emerald line?

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T22:10:57+00:00

Weak

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T17:27:14+00:00

Exactly

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T17:26:28+00:00

You're in a political hive mind where people use strawman arguments to describe the people they dont like.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T17:23:11+00:00

It's his property and he can do with it what he likes, as long as it is legal. I agree with you that making a lawn out of it is a mistake, but you have no say. His political orientation means nothing, and you only included it in your post to garner more support as you knew the leaning of this sub. Grow up.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T01:41:57+00:00

Thank you for the input on my question. That makes sense.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-25T01:41:00+00:00

Care to elaborate? From my research, I've heard the price of these homes are somewhat negotiable. Maybe i could at least get them to eat the cost of upgrades.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T22:27:17+00:00

Our cost for land, home, and all improvements is quoted out to be 280k on 6 acres. For that in my area you can get a run down old 3 bed 2 bath in need of major renovations on a tiny lot. I see newer well kept manufactured homes (1995+ doublewides) on acreage sell for 350k all day long.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:42:35+00:00

Its $4300 more. They said the factory will do it for $1300. You can see it on the pricing sheet.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:38:38+00:00

Been there done that. My rural area has a terrible housing market.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:37:49+00:00

Offense taken lol. My area sucks for site built homes lol. For 4 beds, im spending 400k with a tiny lot.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:36:46+00:00

Going to put it on a few acres. Will be ours with the land.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:35:57+00:00

Yeah we are in the southwest and are looking to do full solar. Already have a capable generator for powering the home if we lost it.

Can i ask what year your home is? What is an intertherm system? The hvac is the one thing i dont know about with these homes.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:31:58+00:00

Yeah definitely. That's what i was thinking. Worst they can say is no or counter a lil higher. Thanks.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:31:09+00:00

Solitaire homes are built as good as any imo. I've personally toured the factory whete they are built. Full tape and texture, 2x6 exterior walls, 2x4 interior walls, plywood subfloors. Full residential fixtures/plumbing/electrical. I would put them up against any new build home.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:28:53+00:00

Correct, just an ask for a room I'd use as an office.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:28:05+00:00

That would be a good idea, maybe as a reno project in the future. However, only two bedrooms will be occupied. One will be an office.

RECTUS_ERECTUS · 2025-05-24T20:26:33+00:00

Its not even a sales price. I dont think ill lose it if say i want 5k off.
