Cash.
Can't mortgage unimproved land (or at least it's hard).
Have to pay for electric, septic and water.
Not sure what financing is offered to then place a modular.
People who have the cash just use it for a down payment on a conventional loan.

I assume there must be some kind of regulation .
You must need some kind of hook up otherwise where is the waste going to go?

They do OP, in more rural areas where land is cheap.

Family down the street (older neighborhood in MoCo) did this a few years ago. They poured a foundation and did some prep work. His home showed up on 5 flat flatbeds and was put together in a day. The finish work, mostly tying the seams and systems together, took a few more weeks. Probably 2 months on site work start to finish. You'd never know it started modular.

Why not sell your land/house and do it yourself?

And I mean the big house on the left, although I think it’s all one property.

Happens all the time on Nantucket. Much cheaper to float over pre built Lego blocks and assemble onsite than build from scratch.
