Modular home builders in Oregon

1. Method Homes

Method Homes offer 8 styles of homes and over 30 sizing options. They specialize in modern homes with glass doors and windows, and all their final products are environmentally friendly.

The homes are shipped 80–95% finished to the construction site where they get assembled. The company relies on a contractor to handle on-site work like drywall and roof covering. This process often takes 2–4 months.

Example home: Elemental Pivot

The Elemental Pivot home has a unique floor plan. It consists of two rectangular units of the same size. The upper pivot contains the master bedroom, the kitchen, and a bathroom. It’s also slightly rotated around the home’s axis.

The lower pivot contains two bedrooms, another bathroom, and a garage. 

• Price: $509,330 for the module cost and $970,000 for all-in cost (shipping, preparation, and assembly)
• Size: 1,643 sq ft
• Price per sq ft: $310 (Approximate value excluding shipping and preparation)
• Number of bedrooms: 3
• Number of bathrooms: 2
• Standout Feature: The upper store is pivoted along the buildings vertical axis, giving a sleek, modern design.  

Pros 

• Despite having preset models, Method Homes offers full customization of modern homes
• All constructed homes are built with environmental friendliness in mind

Cons

2. Dweller Modular Homes

Dweller is a recent house building company that specializes in ADUs (accessory dwelling units). In other words, the company focuses on building extensions or additions to your already existing home.

Unlike Method Homes, dweller offers turn-key services, which means they handle all aspects of the project. After you make your order, expect a waiting period of six months before the project is completely finished. 

Pros 

• Dweller handles the entire project from start to finish, including landscaping 
• They offer alternative financing products for buyers who are currently incapable of purchasing an ADU

Cons 

• The customization options are somewhat limited compared to other companies on the list

Example home: Urbaneer 660

Urbaneer 660 is one of many Urbaneers that Dweller offers. It offers multiple premium features like vinyl plank flooring, galvanized steel roofing, and quartz countertops. 

• Price: $115,000 – $160,000 (all-in-cost)
• Size: 660 sq ft
• Price per sq ft: $208 (Approximate value)
• Number of bedrooms: 2
• Number of bathrooms: 1
• Standout Feature: It comes with an optional moveable wall bed

3. ideabox

Ideabox specializes in small-sized single-story houses. Yet, the high ceiling and clever use of space still maintain the vibe of larger homes. 

The house and the foundation often get built at the same time, resulting in fast delivery. However, the customer would be responsible for finding a contractor to handle the site work and permits. 

Pros 

• Excellent space use even in smaller sized models
• Faster delivery because the house and foundation are built simultaneously

Cons 

• The service is limited to single-story houses and you have to hire your own contractor

Example home: Haven

Haven is one of two Havens that ideabox built. The house is a 53’ x 15’ rectangle built on a park that caps at 781 sq ft. It’s not too big, but the space is well-utilized to provide everything you’d need from a house without making you feel compacted. 

• Price: $210,000+
• Size: 781 sq ft
• Price per sq ft: $269 (Approximate value)
• Number of bedrooms: 2
• Number of bathrooms: 2
• Standout Feature: Impressively spacious kitchen for a small-spaced house

ModsPDX

ModsPX has a unique character that you won’t find in all the previously mentioned home builders; their work is 100% custom-made. To date, they don’t have base designs. Instead, you have to use their “MODS Universal Building Platform” 3D to custom design your home.

ModsPX also designs and builds commercial units, which is why many of the clients are either developers or contractors. 

Pros 

• They’re suitable whether you’re building a residential home or a commercial building
• The houses are built to provide net-zero energy efficiency

Cons 

• Lack of base models to choose from

Since there are no base models, information about home examples is limited. However, you can still have a look at all their built products on the official website.

Kit home builders in Oregon

1. DC Structures

DC structures specialize in various timber projects, making them aesthetically excellent if your build site is near a forest or a beach. Cabins, barns, garages, farmhouses, and even event houses are all on the list.

Since DC has completed projects all over the US, there’s mostly a project near you that you can see. All you need to do is to contact the company so they can arrange a visit. 

They also have the option to sell you plans only if you can arrange the building process somewhere else. Additionally, they can help you with licensing your building. 

The building time may vary, but basic structures take between 4–6 weeks. 

Pros

• A plethora of customization options, building types, and sizes
• They offer to handle the licensing and can sell you the plans only

Cons 

• You can customize your design but not as deeply as some people might want

Example home: The Rainier

The Rainier timber home is a large two-story home with three bedrooms, four full-sized bathrooms, and a garage that can comfortably accommodate two cars. 

• Price: $461,138 (starting)
• Size: 4,549 sq ft

Manufactured home builders in Oregon

1. Skyline Homes

Skyline Homes is the oldest manufacturer on our list with over 60 years of experience in the field. Their headquarters may not be located in Oregon, but their service covers the entire western part of the United States. 

It’s suited for both residential homes and mobile homes, with over 450,000 mobile units constructed. Also, regardless of the type of home you choose, you get a 12-month structural warranty.

However, Skyline is only a home dealer and doesn’t handle site work. If you require site work, you’ll need a local retailer. 

Pros

• Your home will be cheaper and require less work than other types of homes
• You’re dealing with one of the most experienced home manufacturers out there

Cons

• Manufactured homes don’t store as much value over time as other homes

Example manufactured home: Lonerock

The Lonerock is a 1080 sq ft mobile home with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen features a half-open, half-closed configuration, giving a partial view of the living room. 

• Price: $108,000–$199,800
• Size: 1,080 sq ft
• Price per sq ft: $142.5 (Approximate value)

Prefab shipping container home builders in Oregon

 1. Steelblox

Steelbox uses recycled shipping containers to create modern luxurious homes. If you’re located near their headquarters, they will handle all the work offsite and onsite.

If you’re a bit further away, they’ll coordinate with local contractors. However, most of the homes are 95% finished in the factory, so even the onsite work will be minimized. 

You can choose between base models, customize those models, or fully have your model customized from scratch.
