Has anyone had any negative experiences with modular homes (two levels or more)?

Yes, can't get them financed over a certain amount, even if they're on perm foundation. I had one I was trying to buy on an acre, and they wanted me to come up with cash above their amount. This was several years ago, but I haven't heard that the loan amount restriction has been removed. This in turn causes a limit on their price, so they can't get as high a resale value as a regular home.

Debts, modular homes are different from manufactured homes. Modular homes are built to the building standards of state and local codes. They have to be permitted, inspected, etc., so except for the fact that they are built elsewhere, there isn't really a difference as far as financing, etc.

Manufactured homes are only built to HUD standards and those are the ones that are virtually impossible to get financing on in CA.

I tried to install a modualr home in Alpine, but they told me they did not want the house in their town because they don't want to attract trailer park trash, so I put it on a truck and sold it to some guy in Marin County.

I know of modular homes that have sold for over a $1 million in Marin County, and I'm not joking:)
