The Modular Home Building Process with LGS Home Builders

Building your dream modular home doesn’t have to be overwhelming. At LGS Home Builders, we’ve spent over 34 years perfecting a streamlined, supportive, and transparent process that guides you from concept to completion—typically within 6 to 9 months. Whether you're a first-time buyer or upgrading your lifestyle, we’re here to make your journey exciting and stress-free.

Step 1: Financing your future

We begin by helping you secure the right financing. Our team connects you with trusted local lenders offering:

Construction-to-Permanent Loans (single-close financing)
Two-Step Construction Loans
Special programs for first-time buyers, veterans, and farmland purchasers

You can choose from our preferred lenders or bring your own—either way, we’ll help you navigate the process with ease.

Step 2: Finding the perfect land

Don’t have land yet? No problem. About half of our clients start without a building site. We offer:

On-site assessments to evaluate land suitability
Guidance on topography
Home placement direction to simplify construction and coordinate with county services

These on-site assessments help guide the building process, bringing your dream home closer to reality.

Step 3: Designing your dream home

Customization is at the heart of what we do. Our design team works closely with you to create a home that reflects your lifestyle:

Modify layouts for family gatherings, pets, or future growth
Choose from a wide range of floorplans—all customizable
Blend modular and site-built elements for ultimate flexibility

We don’t work on commission, so our focus is on helping you make informed decisions that align with your goals.

Step 4: Preparing the site

Once your design is finalized and financing is secured, we begin prepping your land:

Excavation, clearing, and grading
Driveway and utility access development
Foundation construction and waterproofing

We also assist with utility applications for water, sewer/septic, electricity, and gas.

Step 5: Modular construction and delivery

Your home is built in a climate-controlled factory by our partner, Nationwide Homes, ensuring:

Precision craftsmanship
Reduced waste and weather delays
Rigorous quality inspections

Modules are engineered to withstand transport and are up to 10 lbs/sq. ft. heavier than traditional homes for added durability.

Step 6: On-site assembly and finishing

Once delivered, we:

Secure modules with engineered fasteners
Add any site-built elements (e.g., garages, porches)
Complete interior finishes, including plumbing, HVAC, electrical, flooring, and trim

Licensed professionals handle every detail to ensure top-tier quality.
