There is nothing that quite beats the excitement of owning your first home, or even a second home for that matter. The last thing you want to do is have that excitement wear off a few weeks or months down the road because you made a wrong choice. The #1 regret of many homeowners is realizing that they bought more home than they can comfortably afford. While it is true that lenders do a pretty good job at helping you avoid this, it does still happen.

It is not just the price of the house itself, either. Many are ill prepared for the higher utility costs and other maintenance issues that come with a home versus an apartment. One way to avoid this situation is to consider owning a modular home.

Since it is less expensive to construct a modular home than a typical home, you will pay less per square foot and thus get a larger home and/or a smaller payment than you would otherwise. If you go with the same size and thus pay less, you not only save on the cost of the home but also on the interest – literally saving thousands of dollars over the term of the mortgage. Your savings don’t stop there, as you will find utilities lower, too, since a modular home is constructed with the latest energy-efficient systems.
