Aloha! Modular Homes Find their Way to Hawaii

30 04 2008

Hawaii’s expensive housing market has prompted many home builders and construction companies to seek out alternative building methods to cut costs and appeal to the average home buying consumer. Aloha Aina Homes, located on the Big Island of Hawaii, has managed to devise such a plan, modular housing. The development company is now building entire sections of homes in a 40,000 square foot manufacturing facility. These sections are built with complete wiring, plumbing and finished cabinetry.

While the modular home designs are not ground breaking they are incredibly cost effective for consumers on a budget. While the average home in Hawaii is right around $400,000, the modular homes built by Aloha Aina Homes are priced under $300,000.
