They are something you see out of sunset magazine, very modern, very open, very elegant homes. This model costs 1. 3 million. Four bedrooms, three baths. The catch here is these homes are premanufactured. They are not double wide but are made off site and trucked in. They are made by a Company Called blue home. This is the company in vallejo. Now building homes for everyone. The ceo of blue homes, graduate of harvard and sam adams beer, hedgefund and now a home builder. Did you cringe when i mentioned the whole double wide thing . Not at all. We enjoy sflexplaining how we a different from double wides. The prefabricated home i think of lower income, lower quality home. This must be the number one question you get. I will ask it myself. How is this different or what am i losing as opposed to just having my home built by Home Builders . It is true that in the United St
