A Backyard home could be the solution for you

There is no generic answer for this question. In most cases the home is placed where you want it providing we can make it fit within the zoning code requirements.

This varies based on the site conditions. If we can roll it back there we will. If not, we will crane it over whatever the obstacles are. Even a two-story house!

Yes. We can help you find the best way to pay for the home and installation.

Yes. If your existing home has a tile roof we will most likely be required to match the material used there.

From external appearances they are similar, but it ends there. The resort models are called "Park Model" homes and are not built to same code requirements since they are meant to be temporary structures. Those homes are essentially Recreational Vehicles (RV's) while the backyard homes are designed to be placed on foundations and appraised as "Real Property".

Yes you can, but we recommend using qualified contractors for the home set, securing and connections. Other than that you would just let us know what you don't want us to do and we would leave it out of the install budget.

Yes, but just like any other project you should consider relative construction experience in selecting your resources. Our advanced building products require a skill set that most contractors have no experience with.

No. These homes are designed to be placed on permanent foundations having permanent utility connections made and titled as "Real Property" when completed.

Yes, just like any other improvement to your home. The increased square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen are looked at like additions to the existing home or as a "second unit", depending on where you live and who is appraising it.

This usually depends on a couple factors, where you live and the size of the home addition. Check with you local planning department or assessor's office.

In most cases no. Most cities require the property owner live in one of the units.

Yes, we can make it look like just about any architectural design out there. However most cities will require the second unit to look like the primary.

No. We install all our homes on permanent foundation systems that meet all local seismic requirements.

No. Most cities will require the home to be installed on a permanent foundation. There are exceptions to this in many cities. Consult your local planning department for guidelines.
