1. Systems building is a fast-growing modern form of construction gaining a growing recognition of its increased efficiency and ability to apply modern technology to the needs of the market place.

2. Systems built homes are built with components constructed in a controlled factory environment to the same building codes as traditional site-built housing.

3. Superior quality control, reduced waste and faster completion (30-60 days versus two to four months for site built construction) are primary benefits.

4. The increased efficiency of modular systems construction generally results in greater savings for the homeowner.

5. Computerization has enabled our industry to take a mass customization approach and design all models to meet a home-owners particular needs. This contrasts with the situation just a few years ago when the industry ofered only a few standard models with limited options.

6. The combination of reduced cycle time, more efficient construction, unlimited customization and a growing shortage of skilled trades-people are the primary reasons many builders are switching from traditional site-building to systems built construction.

7. Today's modular systems housing encompasses the entire spectrum of the housing market from the affordable single-family and multi-family housing to high end luxury homes.
