Home to the historic Route 66, the Philbrook Museum of Art, and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, Oklahoma is quite the state to call home.
Various casinos, the Myriad Botanical Gardens, and the Woolaroc Wildlife Preserve are just a few additional enticing attractions for its population of four million (according to World Population Review).
Additionally, the state boasts a relatively low cost of living. However, programs like ‘Tulsa Remote‘ in various metro areas are creating an influx of people relocating to the state, which may explain the increase in rental and housing prices in recent years.
If you are one of these individuals, or simply a current resident looking to build your dream home in Oklahoma, you may want to consider a modular home. Because of the fabrication process and their features, houses built with modular construction will save you money on both your initial purchase price and long-term recurring maintenance and utility costs.
But, if you’re looking for a modular builder to make your dream home in Oklahoma come true, what are your options?
To assist you in your search, we’ve scoured the internet and put together a list of the best modular construction companies in the state.
