  15. Custom Built • A home that is designed by an architect and built by a contractor to meet the needs of an individual family. • With a custom built home, the home is unique and there are seldom two that are alike. • These homes are more costly than other homes and often takes longer to build.

  16. Owner Built • The building of this home is supervised by the owner. • Owner built homes require knowledge and lots of personal time and energy. • The owner does not necessarily do their own work, but hires the individual team of workers.

  17. Factory Built • Factory-built homes are constructed in parts or are fully finished in a plant/factory. • These usually cost less and take less time to construct.

  18. Modular Homes • Modular homes are built in boxes/rooms and shipped to the building site. • The “boxes” are then assembled onto a foundation to form a house.

  19. Manufactured Homes • These homes are completely built in a factory or plant and pulled to the lot on wheels. • The wheels may be removed and the home placed on a foundation to meet local codes.

  20. Stick Built • A “stick-built” home constructed on the lot using some factory-built components such as precut items and kits (roofs and walls framing)
