2 Modular Companies Building Granny Pods - modular home builder

Over 20 years ago, my wife and I built a home and during the planning stages we incorporated a separate living space for my mother where she could live independently but at the same time she was comfortable in the knowledge that a single unlocked interior door was her lifeline to our family. At the time, this was called a 'mother-in-law' suite.

Today more than 23,000,000 elderly, disabled and mentally challenged people depend on the help of extended family to help them enjoy a fuller, more enjoyable life. Many of them live with their family while others are in assisted living facilities or group residencies.

With baby boomers beginning to retire in record numbers, many are turning to their families for ?support or to support others. Many boomers have parents in their 80's that are now requiring more attention due to medical and physical problems. What to do to help is becoming a burning question for many.

Enter modular construction. Two companies, which both use modular home factories to build their product, have entered the Assisted Living market. Med Cottage and PALS Built are quickly becoming the nation's leaders in this field. The two have different approaches to helping with this growing need to bring quality housing to family members.

Med Cottage designs a line of stand alone modular units that can be placed next to a family's home with walkway connections. This gives the person living in it a feeling of full independence and usually includes everything that you would find in any home. Kitchen, Bedroom, ADA Bath and Living rooms.

The PALS Built modular is an addition-based unit that works by attaching a module to an existing home. Most of their models appear to only have a bedroom/living room and an ADA bath with a doorway into the main family home making the person living in it feel like an?integral part of the everyday routine of the family.
Both are great ways to go. The most important thing to remember is that modular home factories are stepping up and building these specialized units quickly and cost effectively.
