What are CrossMods?

Many Arizonans are faced with an affordable housing challenge. Options are very limited for quality homes that both affordable and in safe neighborhoods.

Those options dwindle even further if you want your home to also be beautiful.

Manufactured housing is a great solution to today’s affordable housing challenge. With increased production efficiency resulting in lower costs, factory-built housing creates accessible home options for Arizonans. But can manufactured homes also be beautiful? Yes—and more so thanks to CrossMods!

What are CrossMods®?

CrossMod homes are factory built, just like manufactured homes, and are secured to a permanent foundation at the final home site. CrossMods have additional features that make them look like a conventional site-built home. These features include:

Higher pitched roofs,

Integrated garages & porches,

And increased energy efficiency.

“CrossMod” comes from the combination of “crossover” and “modern.” These homes blend the best of on-site and off-site built housing. What this means for you is that you benefit from the building efficiency and speed of factory construction as well as the foundational durability associated with conventional construction.

How Much Does a CrossMod Cost?

In Arizona, the average cost for building a new (site-built) home runs over $200/sf—with the average purchase price of an existing (site-built) home currently at $435,000. While the exact cost of any home (site or factory built) varies depending on factors like its specific features and where it will be located, the price for a CrossMod can be less than $85/sf for the home and $170/sf with everything included (e.g., built-on garage, lot purchase price, etc.).

The Value of CrossMods

CrossMods have the best of both worlds – the curb appeal and aesthetics to fit in any neighborhood along with the benefits and value provided by the factory construction process.

Because CrossMods have the potential to appreciate similarly to site-built homes, they bringanother huge benefit to homebuyers – competitive financing. Both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have developed special financing programs available to thousands of their lending partners, allowing you to have a traditional mortgage to purchase your CrossMod.

CrossMod homes offer forward-thinking designs, energy-efficient features, and high-end materials without sacrificing the efficiency, quality, and construction speed that comes with factory-built homes.

Why CrossMods?

Arizonans want to have safe, beautiful homes that are affordable so they don’t have to sacrifice everything else to cover their monthly housing payments.

Manufactured homes can cost half as much per square foot as site-built homes—holding a clear value advantage over all other forms of housing. And the financing available for this new class of manufactured homes makes CrossMods affordable for buyers of nearly every budget.
