So I have some questions around Modular houses...I know, Surly 1%ers are scoffing, but here is the situation. My wife and I want to move south of Austin to be close to her family (FIL in poor health, we want to start a family and be closer to them). They live on land in Driftwood, so we had been looking at Dripping Springs, but it has gotten so expensive and competitive in the last 6 months that we have quickly been priced out, and it is even getting that way in a lot of Kyle (outside of the dumpier stuff East of 35).
So we have been looking into building at their land. The only problem is that we can't necessarily commit to living there forever, and as such, we're looking into Modular houses as a solution to allow us to live there but also potentially sell that house off the land at a future time. Is this even remotely feasible? This isn't a mobile home we're talking about, just a house built in a warehouse and assembled on site, so I am unsure if removing it and selling it is even an option. Has anyone heard of this, or is it not really a thing?
