What’s the difference between a modular home and a prefab home?

• <div><p>Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.</p><p>In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.</p></div>

What is the largest a tiny home can be and still be moved?

• <div><p>The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of <b>400 square feet.</b> However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.</p></div>

Q: Where can you find carriage houses?

• <div><p>In the U.S., original and converted carriage houses are most often found in New England, New York, and other parts of the Northeast. New construction carriage houses can be found across the country, and are often added to properties with Colonial-style homes for additional living, storage, or work space, although they can be found in many different styles.</p></div>

Q: Why would I want to live in a treehouse?

• <div><p>While a romantic getaway in a vacation treehouse may sound appealing, building one to live in year-round comes with more challenges. However, a growing number of people are adopting this small-scale living approach to appreciate an off-the-grid, private lifestyle. It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.</p></div>

Q: Are there different types of building permits?

• <div><p>Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-you-need-a-permit-to-finish-a-basement.htm">permit to finish a basement</a> than you would tear down the patio.</p></div>
