Competitively priced modular home builders?

[Stephen Mattison]

I'm interested in buying undeveloped parcels, developing them, and then putting modular homes on them and reselling.

I have in the past done this with a volume home builder instead of modular, to moderate success. However the aesthetics of modular houses are more modern (sell easier) and the turn around time reduces carrying costs substantially. Plus not having to manage the onsite build will be a huge savings.

Is there a somewhat comprehensive list of modular home builders? Who are the big players in this arena? Does anybody have recommendations born from research and not due to random selection or a builder marketing themselves?

Thoughts on strategy?
