Pennsylvania-based builder Excel is offering five new affordable modular homes, including this one-bedroom Prairie-style design with 947 square feet.CAPTIONBy ExcelIf you want a new green home but are tight on cash, good news. The number of affordable, energy-efficient modular homes continues to increase as Pennsylvania-based builder Excel Homes offers a new line aimed at first-time buyers.
The homes in its “Starting Line Up Series” are targeted to be sold for under $100,000, and depending on region, for as low as $60,000. They have less than 1,000 square feet, but with vaulted ceilings, sunken living rooms and hardwood floors, Excel Homes says they have all the style of larger homes.
The interior of the Prairie design offers a sunken living room, lots of natural light and hardwood floors.CAPTIONBy Excel”The word ‘design’ doesn’t have to be synonymous with larger homes and higher price tags. In fact, design has nothing to do with cost or size,” Steven Saffell, Director of Architectural Design and Innovation for Excel Homes, says in the announcement.
These homes join other small modular green homes with affordable price tags, such as Clayton Homes’ eHome, starting at $45,000, and Nationwide’s ECO Cottages, starting at $50,000.
Excel’s two-bedroom CAPTIONBy Excel Excel Homes, which has built 28,000 modular homes since its founding in 1984, is offering five designs that cannot be customized in its new line.
Among them is the two-bedroom, 771 square foot “Craftsman Bungalow,” shown to the right, that is inspired by the Sears kit homes of the 1940s and 1950s and the one-bedroom, 945 square “Prairie View,” evocative of the designs of Frank Lloyd Wright
The homes are built in sections – or modules – at its factories in Liverpool, Pa., and Marlboro, N.Y., and transported to a lot, where they are assembled on a foundation.
Within six weeks, Excel says it can build, deliver and set up the homes, which come with the government’s Energy Star label for energy efficiency. Its prices do not include the cost of land. It can service much of the eastern half of the United States.

As energy prices sky rocket the prices of solar panels will only go up. This will hopefully prove that solar panels will be a great investment for anyone wanting to save some money or help the environment. Either way, solar panels really should be at the top of the “to do” list. Someone has recommended Solar Panels so I am really looking forward to getting them.

I think this is a great post. One thing that I find the most helpful is number five. Sometimes when I write, I just let the flow of the words and information come out so much that I loose the purpose. It’s only after editing when I realize what I’ve done. There’s defiantly a lot of great tips here I’m going to try to be more aware of.

I really liked this post. You write about this topic very well. From start to finish, your home builder should be working with you to make the home of your dreams come true. Throughout the home-building process, you should always find them available to answer any question you may have. They should be able to help you as much as you feel necessary in the decision-making processes. They should offer you many plans of all sizes or modify them to your unique requirements. They should be able to even build to your own architectural needs, no matter the dimension or scale.

With all the damage that we are doing to this earth I am not sure how much longer it will go forward, I think we should do more to help and stop consuming all its natural resources.
