"Is there a difference between a mobile home and a manufactured home?" is one of the most common questions we get online and in person. Today, many people use mobile home and manufactured home interchangeably. That's understandable because both types of homes share similar features and benefits for homeowners. However, understanding the minor differences can be valuable when searching for a new place to call home.
Unlike site-built homes, manufactured homes are built in a factory. Once completed, they're shipped to a specific location where the homeowner will live. The term "manufactured home" refers to any factory-built home constructed after June 15, 1976. That date is when the HUD or U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development implemented guidelines centered around manufactured home construction.
HUD code requires manufactured homes to be constructed on a base frame with wheels with a minimum of 320 square feet.
Thanks to fast build times and lower material costs, manufactured homes for sale in Lakewood, SC is often more cost-effective for home buyers. Compared to traditional site-built homes, many manufactured homes can be up to 35% less than more traditional houses.
Any mobile homes built after June 15, 1976, are considered manufactured homes today, though many people use the term mobile home casually. In the past, these homes were used to travel and were more like the expensive RVs that people use today than true manufactured homes. Back then, mobile homes received a bad reputation due to poor build quality, but they've come a long way since that time. Today, mobile homes are safe, comfortable, and structurally sound, with many types of amenities and floor plans.
Manufactured homes are more popular in the U.S. than ever, and for good reason: prospective homeowners are looking for affordable, quality alternatives to traditional homes. That's especially true today, with inflation on the rise, necessitating more budget-friendly options for anyone who wants to put a roof over their heads.
If you're used to living in a traditional, site-built home, you may be wondering what the advantages are of buying a manufactured home. Here are just a few of the most common benefits of buying a manufactured home:
When you boil it down to the basics, buying a new home is all about the money. One of the most attractive reasons for buying a manufactured home is that they are often much less expensive than traditional site-built homes. Today, manufactured housing is considered a crucial part of the housing shortage solution and a viable option with inflation rising. According to statistics, the average square-foot cost of a site-built home is $107, while the average price is only $49 in a manufactured home. Whether you're sticking to a strict budget or your finances have changed due to poor economic conditions, going manufactured might be your best choice.
Owning a manufactured home gives the homeowner long-term living options. Because basic manufactured homes are usually very affordable, families with enough land can start with a small home and add additional units as their needs change. Manufactured homes are also great as starter homes, especially for families that plan on building a permanent structure on their land in the future. Though it could be logistically challenging, manufactured homes can also be moved to a different site if the initial one was on rented property.
Manufactured homes have received a bad rap over the last few decades. In reality, most manufactured homes are purpose-built for longevity with structural integrity. Every manufactured home built today is subject to the HUD code adopted in 1976. This code is the only federally-mandated code in existence. It was designed to ensure that manufactured homes meet strict standards regarding fire safety, structural design, energy efficiency, transportation to home sites, and overall construction. All manufactured homes sold in the U.S. have a permanent red seal to confirm they meet HUD standards.
When you buy a manufactured home, you may be able to move in faster than you would via traditional routes. Some manufactured homes are even move-in ready in less than 45 days. Compared to a traditional home, once a new manufactured home is built in the factory, buyers usually find that installation is a quick process. Once the manufactured home is delivered, utility work usually moves quickly, regardless of whether you're moving to a park or transporting your home to a piece of land. Before you know it, you're eating, sleeping, and enjoying life in your new manufactured home.
When asked about the pros and cons, many buyers cite energy efficiency as one of the most significant benefits of owning a manufactured home. In general, manufactured housing is more energy efficient than traditional because HUD mandates ensure that homes have high energy efficiency ratings.
These ratings are achieved through upgraded insulation installation, on-demand water heaters, and energy-efficient windows. These upgrades often make entire manufactured homes Energy Star certified. It's no surprise that manufactured homes are 27% more efficient than they used to be with other additions like energy-saving appliances in kitchens and bathrooms.
If you've ever lived in an apartment complex before, chances are you heard sounds and noises through your walls that you never wanted to hear. If you hate hearing your neighbors and despise thin walls, looking for mobile home sales in Lakewood, SC is a great idea. Why? Manufactured homes are typically built using separate modules, which reduces sound transference from room to room. When two or more modules are combined and insulated separately, buyers enjoy an even quieter, stronger home with less outside noise.
If there's one disappointing aspect of manufactured homes, the stigma seems to surround them. Yes, mobile homes from 30 or more years ago aren't exactly marvels of construction and deserve to be criticized. However, modern manufactured homes are cut from a different cloth and are often every bit as safe and luxurious as site-built homes.
Here are some of the most common (and annoying) mobile home myths debunked:
Modern manufactured homes are factory-built homes crafted with quality materials that meet comprehensive federal construction and safety standards. These standards, called the "HUD Code," outline how the homes must be built, including safety guidelines. For example, manufactured home builders must take strict measures to ensure their homes are resistant to wind. In terms of hurricanes and tornados, having such measures in place can prevent a tragedy from happening.
The bottom line is that manufactured homes are plenty safe and provide a quality product to people who want a lower-cost option over traditional housing.
One of the most repeated myths surrounding manufactured homes is that they are in poor shape and have an overall poor quality. Today, many manufactured homes are built with quality materials and care. It's not unusual to find a manufactured home with luxurious amenities and features lie state-of-the-art kitchens, high-end appliances, and chic open floor plans. At Ken-Co Homes, we can provide you with a complete list of available upgrades and amenities for you to enjoy in your new home.
Perhaps it's due to their popularity and lower prices, but we often hear that it's hard to find manufactured homes for sale. As seasoned home dealers, we can say this is categorically false. Whether you head over to Google and search for "mobile homes near me in Lakewood, SC," or simply head to Ken-Co Homes' website, you'll see plenty of homes to choose from. Contact our office today for a full list of our homes for sale!
When it comes to home prices in today's day and age, manufactured homes are among the most affordable options available.
That's because manufactured homes cost less to construct than site-built homes, with the average price costing $92K for new construction and $60K for a pre-owned manufactured home, according to recent data. The cost of a traditional home is much higher, with an average of $408K, according to Statista data from 2021. Even though manufactured home living costs change depending on the community, they're often much less expensive than their site-built cousins in the long run.
This myth parallels the stereotype that manufactured homes are cheap and poorly built. Unfortunately, many people still believe that living in a manufactured home community isn't safe. They think that the parks are run down and riddled with reprobates. In reality, many manufactured home parks mimic gated communities with 24-hour security and mandated quiet hours. Some manufactured home neighborhoods even offer community-wide amenities like spas and pools. If you're a fan of the gated community lifestyle but don't want to pay hundreds of thousands for a site-built home, a manufactured home community could be your best bet.
Are you giving serious thought to buying a manufactured home for sale in South Carolina? You're not alone - more than 365K people in the Palmetto State live in manufactured homes. At Ken-Co Homes Inc., we're not your average run-of-the-mill manufactured home dealer. We only do business with manufacturing partners committed to building top-quality products that our customers are proud to own.
If you're looking for modern amenities, energy-efficient appliances, unique floorplans, and homes constructed with quality materials, Ken-Co Homes is the company for you. Contact our office today to learn more about our beautiful Clayton homes for sale in Lakewood, SC.

With large tracts of land turning into subdivision seemingly overnight to accommodate the Upstate’s growth, the city of Mauldin is celebrating the grand opening of a 120-acre park that will forever keep green in Greenville.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday at The Preserve at Lakewood, the DidierGroup's second privately owned public park in the Upstate, marked the formal opening of the park just inside Mauldin city limits.
The Orlando, Florida-based DidierGroup bought 120 acres that back up to the Reedy River in 2017 and worked with the Atlantic Coast Conservancy — the less athletic ACC — to place a conservation easement on the property, meaning it will be open green space forever.
"This was a good place for us to get in and say, 'Hey, how do we try to change things before they can't be changed? How do we find land like this," Hank Didier said, gesturing at the Preserve at Lakewood, "that's conserved now permanently?"
The ACC manages the conservation with visits on an annual basis, at minimum, to make sure no development is taking place.
Through reservations, the private park is open to the public for cross country training, camping, fundraiser 5Ks and more.
Clemson University students are studying its trees, grasses and water management, the Didiers said.
The highlight of the property for Hank and Allison is the Sustainability Education Center.

An Orlando native, Allison said she watched her hometown become overdeveloped and overcrowded. After Hank retired from environmental law in 2016, they looked for ways to encourage smart growth and sustainability.
While exploring the Upstate, they realized the Greenville area had potential to balance growth and greenspace, they said. The city was doing a better job of managing its growth, Hank said, and he wanted to do his part.
It didn't take long to find multiple properties to start their preservation and sustainability efforts. They bought the former Millstone Golf Course, a 200-acre property on New Easley Highway, in September 2017 and turned it into The Preserve at Riverwest in Greenville.
When a second opportunity arose nearby, they jumped on it.
A metal building on the property at 220 Lakewood Drive in Mauldin quickly had a new purpose once the Didiers secured a conservation easement on the property in 2018. Solar panels and skylights were added to the roof and education panels mounted to the walls to tell the story of sustainability.
The husband-and-wife team hope it hosts field trips for years to come with students eating lunch at the picnic tables while enjoying an off-grid day at the preserve.
"I think this is the wave of the future," Allison said. "Our generations below us know this — they want to know more, and they want to live like this. So we just want to help that along."
The center provides a hands-on display of renewable energy sources and the purpose of land conservation. Corporate sponsors and community partners have come together to make the center possible, she said, along with several other community events at the park.
"We've had individual requests, family requests, group requests, so, you know, we're happy to accommodate any and all," Allison said.
While the park and sustainability center are established, there's still plenty of room for green growth and nearly limitless opportunities, Hank said. The more partners they have — and more funding — the more they can do with the space.
COVID-19 changed the way many people looked at outdoor activity, Hank said, and it changed a bit of the use for The Preserve at Lakewood, too.
When Conestee Park, less than two miles away, closed during the pandemic, the preserve, even before its full opening, absorbed a lot of cross-country activities, Hank said. That placed an emphasis on running and helped create what he calls a "5K in a box."
Any group that wants to host a cardio-heavy fundraiser is welcome to use the trails already cut through the preserve and donate the entry fees as they see fit, he said.
DiderGroup focuses on development with the environment in mind, Hank said. He plans to develop a parcel near the park into a subdivision using sustainable building efforts and trends, bringing together the two arms of his company.
Land is a precious resource, Allison said, and opportunities for creating these wide-open space is limited as development booms in Greenville.
"This is the kind of privately funded public-park system that we would really like Greenville to have," she said. "So we're doing our best to put all the pieces together."

SUMTER COUNTY, S.C. — The Sumter County Sheriff's Office is investigating multiple reports of students feeling ill and clearing up rumors concerning the cause.
Sheriff Anthony Dennis said in a statement released on Friday that investigators are at Lakewood High School working with the administration to determine what led to reports of students suddenly not feeling well - with one even taken by ambulance for treatment.
"Many social media rumors have spread quickly this week regarding potential student overdoses and a possible drug-related death," the sheriff's office said. "Sheriff Dennis assures the public that there have been no deaths in Sumter County."
He did say, however, that student illnesses are being investigated for possibly being connected to vape pens and candies - edibles - that contained tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
Sumter County Sheriff's Office (Sumter, SC)
Sumter County investigators and Sumter School District investigating drug use and distribution allegations at Lakewood High School
Sumter County investigators are currently at Lakewood High School working with the school administration related to recent incidents and rumors of students and drug use and distribution on the property. There have been recent incidents of students not feeling well and having sought medical treatment. In one incident earlier this week, one studen...
The school district has since issued a statement asking parents to speak with their children.
"It is important that we all understand the severity of this situation because these substances are not safe," Superintendent William Wright said in a statement.
He added that parents should tell their kids about the dangers associated with vaping and edibles and to let school officials know immediately if they notice suspicious activity.
The sheriff reiterated these concerns as well and warned that those giving out these items will face a judge if caught.
“Not only can these items be detrimental to the student’s health and safety, but they are also unlawful," he said. "Violators that are possessing or distributing these type [of] items in the school will be prosecuted accordingly."

When you know, you know.
Sumter (S.C.) Lakewood senior cornerback
definitely knew where he wanted to attend college going into his public decision Tuesday night.
Cisse was offered by NC State on June 4, and then returned with his parents for an unofficial visit June 7. He verbally committed to the Wolfpack during his visit but wanted a week before announcing it publicly. Cisse is thrilled to become the sixth verbal commitment in NC State’s class of 2023, and the first defensive prospect.
“I think it was surprising [to his parents], but it was everything they could expect,” said Cisse about the return trip. “They left the decision up to me and I give my props for it, and my dad as well.
“It was the best decision for me and what more could you ask for.”
Cisse said his parents knew NC State was the best fit for him, especially with the academics. The chance to play in the ACC also loomed large.
“NC State has a top defense coming back in the country and will be a preseason top 10 team,” Cisse said. “You can’t really beat that. It’s like the best of both worlds.
“It’s a great staff and [NC State cornerbacks] coach Brian Mitchell is a great guy. I can’t wait to play for them.”
Michell and NC State defensive line coach Charley Wiles recruited Cisse. Now, Cisse will turn into a recruiter. He wants NC State to land Miami Killian linebacker
and defensive back
of Arden (N.C.) Christ School.
“I’m going to be back up there more often now that I’m committed to them,” said Cisse, who lives three hours away. “I think the class that we will bring in will help win an ACC championship.”
Cisse did attend the Syracuse at NC State game on Nov. 20 and remembers how crazy the tailgating and traffic was before the game.
“It’s kind of surreal when I now think about it,” Cisse said. “I know I’ll be there soon, but what I remember most is that DBs played really well that game. I liked how Coach D [Dave Doeren] handles things and he’s one of the best.
“We couldn’t find a place to park. I saw a sign for recruits so I actually got out in the middle of the road, get on a golf cart and then went down. I just saw all these fans, which was amazing. They really love football.”
The 5-11 1/2, 162-pound Cisse caught 22 passes for 297 yards and three touchdowns, and added 33 tackles, three interceptions, two fumble recoveries and a forced fumble on defense. He even made 8 of 9 extra points and had two touchbacks kicking off at the end of the season.
“I came into high school more as a wide receiver,” Cisse said. “You can learn how to play technique on defense and things like that. When the ball is in the air, you kind of turn into a receiver. Hopefully, I get a few more picks this year.”
Cisse clocked 4.45 seconds in the 40-yard dash at NC State’s camp, with a vertical jump of 34.9 inches. He also ran 11.12 in the 100-meter dash and 22.09 in the 200 this past spring in track.
“Of course, I thought an offer would be on the line,” Cisse said.
Cisse had a large Group of Five conference offers including Akron, Appalachian State, Army, Bowling Green, Buffalo, Central Michigan, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Marshall, Miami (Ohio), Middle Tennessee State, Navy, Old Dominion and South Florida.
“NC State was one of my top schools and one of my dream schools,” Cisse said. “The rest is history.”

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) – The city of Myrtle Beach could soon be able to sell land to two campground sites.
The city owns 143 acres inside Lakewood Camping Resort and PirateLand Family Camping Resort, known as Seascape Properties.
Myrtle Beach has leased the property to the campgrounds for years.
As part of a 2004 intergovernmental agreement, the city would receive 25% of the revenue from the lease while Horry County would receive 75% of the revenue and that money would go toward the Myrtle Beach International Airport, which is run by Horry County.
According to our news partner, My Horry News, the Myrtle Beach City Council voted in December 2020 to sell the properties to the campgrounds for a combined $60 million. But Horry County contended that the sale price is below fair market value and objected to the city’s plan to keep all of the proceeds from the sale.
Horry County filed a lawsuit against the city of Myrtle Beach, but according to public index records, it was dismissed in April 2021.
Now the city wants to move forward with the sale of the land.
PAST COVERAGE:
During Tuesday’s city council meeting, leaders voted in favor of an ordinance that terminates the agreement with Horry County.
The spokesperson for the city of Myrtle Beach, Mark Kruea, said the city has a right to do what they want with their land.
“The city owns the land outright,” said Kruea. “The obligations for the property were fulfilled decades ago. There is no obligation on the city’s part to give the county any money. We’ve been doing that voluntarily since 2004. This effectively cancels that voluntary agreement on our part.”
According to the ordinance, a letter will be sent to the Horry County administrator stating that the agreement will be terminated on Oct. 14.
The last hurdle deals with the Federal Aviation Administration.
The FAA opened an investigation into the sale of the land because, according to Horry County, the United States gave the Seascape Properties to the city of Myrtle Beach at no cost on the condition that the revenue from those properties would be used for airport purposes.
WMBF News reached out to the FAA to see where this investigation stands. The agency said it is working to gather information and hopes to provide an update on Wednesday.
