Q: Should a home builder or contractor be licensed and insured?

• <div><p>Yes, a home builder should have a builder&rsquo;s license and insurance. States have different requirements for builder&rsquo;s licensing and certifications. Be sure to check our <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to review your local home builder licensing guidelines.</p><p>As you browse our pro listings, take note of the &ldquo;Angi Certified&rdquo; badge.

Q: Do modular homes go up in value?

• <div><p>Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.</p></div>

Q: Why are houses built with crawl spaces?

• <div><p>The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They&rsquo;re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they&rsquo;re at less of a risk of freezing.</p></div>

Q: Do home builders need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Yes, home builders need to be licensed in every state and municipality in the country. The specific license required varies based on the location and the work, but most states require that the builder hold a general contractor&rsquo;s license at minimum. Some states and cities also require that plumbing, electrical, roofing, and sewage system construction require individual licenses, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">contractor licensing tool</a> to confirm that the builder you&rsquo;re considering holds all the proper licenses.</p></div>
