Stick Vs Modular

Pros, cons, and grey areas of buying modular instead of stick built houses for rentals.

I’ve been searching through the forums and can’t seem to find a post on this topic within 5 years ago. I currently have a couple vacant lots in a neighborhood and I’m deciding on new construction or going modular.
Is there any cost advantage of mods?

Is there any difference in appreciation?

Is there a price gap in rent rates?

Modulars will appreciate as a site built.  I do manufactured homes, modulars and stick built.  Most mods are built better than a stick built.  I've been in the biz since the late 90"s.  If you would like to chat about it, I'd be more than happy to.
