A Manufactured Home is a home built entirely in the factory under a federal building code administered by the U.S. Manufactured homes may be single- or multi-section and are transported to your home site and installed. Manufactured homes setup costs strongly depend on the complexity of the site and distance traveled. But in any case, manufactured homes on average are less expensive than site-built homes.
Home prices have an extensive span, and there are some wildly expensive properties in the United States. Storm risk estimates how much climate change increases the chances of extreme precipitation, when a lot of rain or snow falls in a short time, including thunderstorms, snowstorms, and tropical cyclones. Heat risk estimates how much climate change might increase the typical number of hot days in a year and the likelihood of extreme heat and heatwaves. By contrast, the average home price in Saskatoon slipped 1.2 per cent while the Edmonton and Regina markets were flat last year. Average residential prices in 2016 edged up 1.1 per cent in Ottawa, 1.3 per cent in Halifax-Dartmouth, 1.4 per cent in Thunder Bay, 2 per cent in Calgary and 2.3 per cent in Winnipeg. In October, the federal government introduced a tougher "stress test" for gauging whether home buyers can handle an eventual increase in mortgage rates.
Typical home price in Hawaii: $1,038,544 (242% of typical U.S. price)
In Maryland, the average mortgage payment is just barely able to meet the 28% rule. That’s despite housing prices just below the national median and median income 40% above the national median. The clear exception is the Middle Atlantic division where half of spec homes have per square foot costs in excess of $131 while the median for contractor-built homes is $120. In New England, the median sale price also exceeds the median contract price, $150 versus $147 per square foot, but the differences are relatively small. Homes in Melbourne receive 3 offers on average and sell in around 52 days. The average sale price of a home in Melbourne was $345K last month, up 3.0% since last year.
The typical house price is 37% lower than the countrywide number, and incomes are 9% above the national median. Homes in Connecticut cost less than the typical price across the country while the median income in the state beats the U.S. median by 20%. The typical cost is less than half the typical U.S. price, which makes up for a median income 25% below the norm. The median home sales price is $428,700 as of the first quarter of 2022. That's the slowest pace of increase in two years, the realtor organization said. Prices were up, on average, and sales also rose to a new annual record.
Typical home price in Pennsylvania: $267,549 (62% of typical U.S. price)
When buying a manufactured home you need to think of where will you put it. It can be a mobile home park or a lot that you own or going to purchase. ClimateCheck™ analyzes a property's risk from climate change using the latest modeling and data from climate scientists, universities, and federal agencies. In Alberta, sales last year dropped 7.6 per cent to 52,169 transactions. But housing activity in Calgary and Edmonton picked up in December compared with November.
While home prices are below the typical U.S. price, the median income is also 25% lower than the U.S. median. Homeowners in Missouri don't need to spend too much of their money on their mortgages. Housing costs are well below the typical U.S. price, and earnings are only 8% less than the national median.
Typical home price in Virginia: $379,206 (88% of typical U.S. price)
The three metrics that home inspectors typically use to determine the price of a home inspection are size, age, and sales prices. For this sample survey, we used a home size of 2,000 sf, an age of 1970, and a sales price of $300,000. We did the survey by company, so we only counted multi-inspector companies once. New England with the median contract price of $147 per square foot is second on the list of most expensive contract prices per square foot. The average cost per square foot for a multi-sectioned manufactured house is significantly smaller than the average cost per square foot for a single-family site-built house. It is $63,9against $155including installation costs for a manufactured home.
With earners in South Dakota making 3% more than the national median and low housing prices, the average home payment in South Dakota doesn't take up too much of residents' budgets. Despite how costly New York City is, New York as a whole isn't nearly as bad. House prices are below average and the median income is 1% above average.
With interest rates at a record low, many aspiring homeowners have decided to enter the market in 2020. Looking at the spec starts and excluding improved lot values, nevertheless, reveals a similar geographic pattern. The highest per square foot median sale prices are registered in New England ($150) and Pacific Divisions ($138). The lowest median prices are in the southern divisions, ranging from $81 in the East South Central division to $89 in the West South Central division and $91 in the South Atlantic. Once again, these divisions stand out for registering prices below the national median – $95 per square foot for spec homes.
Low house prices make Ohio an affordable place to purchase a home. Even with a median income 6% below the median for the whole country, average mortgage payments don't cost much. And the prefabricated housing industry has come up with a solution for people who want a new home with all of the features that a site-built home would offer but at a fraction of the price - manufactured homes.
Because of that, the average mortgage payment is affordable for what residents earn. While Texas is a popular place to live, homes still cost less than what they do in the rest of the country. The median income is 1% above the U.S. median, so the average mortgage payment still leaves homeowners with plenty of money left over. Iowa has very low housing prices, mortgage rates, and a median income 1% above the national median.
Nebraska ranks as one of the better states for home affordability. It has inexpensive housing costs, low interest rates on mortgages, and a median income 7% above that of the United States. Even though the median income is 15% higher than the U.S. median, extremely high prices put housing out of reach for many residents. While Alabama has a low median income (19% below the national median), its typical house prices are even lower.
Because of that, residents don't pay too much for their mortgages. In October 2022, Melbourne home prices were up 13.6% compared to last year, selling for a median price of $364K. On average, homes in Melbourne sell after 55 days on the market compared to 47 days last year. There were 179 homes sold in October this year, down from 258 last year.
Despite below average housing costs in North Carolina, median income 11% less than the national average leads residents in the state to miss the 28% rule. New Jersey is home to high housing costs and high salaries (31% more than the national median). Earnings don't quite outweigh the expensive home prices, so mortgages take up a significant chunk of what homeowners make. The low average housing prices in Kentucky make up for incomes 16% below the national median.
One home inspector was concerned that this survey was price-fixing, which is illegal. We did this survey because I like having this information, and I’m sure there are plenty of other people who like looking at it.

In B.C.'s Fraser Valley and the Greater Vancouver area, prices continued to rise by more than 20 per cent in calendar 2016, as they did in Victoria and the Greater Toronto Area.
These are certainly valid concerns, but there are way too many qualifiers there for us to gather any useful data. Unfortunately, the Survey of Construction does not differentiate between lower/average/higher end costs, so we do not have this information. There's no requirement to buy a home in any market, nor do you need to refinance if rates move against you . Homeownership rates also count people who bought a home already and currently live in it. Use the average ratio in the overlap of the FHFA index and Shiller's NSA home data. The average home is getting both bigger and taller, filled with more bedrooms and bathrooms.
