What is a "System-Built" home?

Systems building is the practice of new home construction where some or all of the house is built under factory controlled conditions. This industry encompasses three main categories; mobile homes, panelized and modular building systems. At Plantation Cottages, we use the panelized and modular systems, using a controlled factory environment to stick-build the home sections. Using these systems offers the greatest amount of flexibility for our clients when choosing a home plan. We do want to stress that your home is a "stick-build" home meeting or exceeding local building code, it is just completed in sections in a controlled environment as opposed to on site.

Can we make changes to the design in the home?

Yes. although your home is a system build home, we are a custom home builder. We have a variety of home styles and floor plans that you can choose from and make minor modifications. We can incorporate your ideas and design the home as you request.

Can we upgrade our home?

Yes. Whether you choose a traditional "stick-build" or system build home, you will have a variety of options and upgrades should you choose. However, we do design all of our homes to contain most of the features and benefits a homeowner would be looking for, at an affordable price.

How much does it cost to build a Plantation Cottages system-built home?

Very good question. The costs vary depending on customer requirements. There are many factors that can impact the final cost of your new home. The style of home you select, the type of windows and doors, the choice of interiors such as kitchen cabinets and counter tops, flooring, appliances and plumbing fixtures all will affect the price of your new home. Our objective is to keep the price of the home at around $140,000, making it affordable for most home buyers.
