Mobile home specialists are professionals who guide you through every step of purchasing, financing, transporting, and installing manufactured homes in our service areas of San Antonio, Von Ormy, and surrounding communities. They help you choose a floor plan, secure financing, coordinate site preparation, manage delivery, and ensure your home meets all Texas regulations.

The manufactured housing industry in Texas is a popular choice, with homes costing about 35% less per square foot than traditional site-built homes. This makes them an attractive option for families working with limited budgets.

Finding the right specialist is crucial. While installation can take just 1-3 days, only experienced professionals can prevent costly issues like improper leveling or foundation problems. As specialists focused on the San Antonio and Von Ormy regions, we offer distinct advantages. We understand local zoning requirements, have established relationships with contractors, and can navigate the unique challenges of Texas soil and climate. While we guide you in preparing land you own, it’s important to note that we do not sell undeveloped land as a standalone product. The right specialist transforms an overwhelming process into a straightforward path to homeownership.

Your Comprehensive Guide to Mobile Home Specialists

Buying a home is a major decision, and for those in the San Antonio and Von Ormy areas, manufactured homes offer an affordable, modern path to homeownership. However, the terminology can be confusing. As mobile home specialists, we help you understand the differences so you can make a confident choice.

Let’s clarify the key terms, as they affect financing, placement, and regulations:

  • Mobile Homes: This term technically refers to factory-built homes produced before June 15, 1976, when there was no single national building standard. As specialists in modern housing, we focus on new manufactured homes and do not sell or service these older, pre-HUD Code mobile homes.

  • Manufactured Homes: This is the correct term for any factory-built home constructed after June 15, 1976. These homes must adhere to the strict federal HUD Code, which governs everything from safety and durability to energy efficiency. They are built on a permanent steel chassis for transport and become permanent structures once installed.

  • Modular Homes: These are also factory-built but are constructed to meet the same state and local building codes as traditional site-built homes, not the HUD Code. They are assembled on a permanent foundation and are visually indistinguishable from site-built homes once complete.

For mobile home specialists in the San Antonio and Von Ormy areas, these distinctions are essential. Different home types have different financing programs, installation requirements, and regulations. At Manufactured Housing Consultants, we guide Texas families through this landscape every day.

To ensure full transparency for our clients, it’s also important to clarify what we don’t do. Our expertise is in selling and installing new manufactured homes as a complete package. Therefore, we do not offer home-only sales for placement in rental parks, nor do we offer rental or rent-to-own programs. Our focus is on providing a complete, end-to-end home-and-land buying experience for our customers in the San Antonio and Von Ormy areas.

Post-Purchase Support: Warranties and Maintenance

Our partnership continues long after you move in. Homes come with manufacturer warranties, and we guarantee our installation meets all state and HUD standards. Some of our new homes even come with a lifetime warranty on certain components.

With proper care, a modern manufactured home can last 30-55 years or more. The most common task is releveling every 3-5 years to prevent structural stress.
