Cappaert Homes Review

Cappaert Homes is an independently owned builder and seller of manufactured homes. They are based in Vicksburg, Mississippi and specialize in single and double wide manufactured homes. Their homes are then sold by a network of over 100 dealers. These sales centers are located throughout the Central and Southeastern U.S. (FL, MS, LA, KY, OK, TX, AR, MO (but mostly MS, LA, TX, AR)

Aesthetically speaking, homes from Cappaert Homes typically feature traditional architecture with most homes based on ranch and cottage designs. Though, with 125+ manufactured homes currently for sale, buyers have several options to choose from. These range from 1 bed, 600 square foot homes up to 5 bed, 2,280 square foot homes. It is worth mentioning though, that because Cappaert Homes primarily sells their homes via a network of sales centers, not all floor plans may be available in your area. And though Cappaert Homes is unable to build fully-custom homes, individuals can personalize models with finishes such as carpets, wallpaper, and color choices.

When choosing a home from Cappaert Homes, there are several things individuals should consider. First, from a design standpoint their homes come standard with electric appliances, cabinetry, trim, and in some cases, accents like ceramic backsplashes. And logistically, their houses can easily be shipped to and set on the final site. 

Once individuals purchase their home from a Cappaert Homes sales center, the local retailer is responsible for setting and installing the final unit(s). Depending on the sales center and your home however, the exact services can vary and may include shipping; joining units together; adding skirting, steps, and siding; and making final utility connections. Exact timing on receiving your home depends on Cappaert Homes’s manufacturing schedule at the moment and the availability of local contractors in your area to prepare the building site and install the home.

Strengths:

  • Offer several series of homes at both mid-and high tier price ranges

  • Have a long operating history

Reasons they might not be for you:

  • You are located outside of their Southeastern U.S. service area

  • You are located far away from their Mississippi manufacturing facility and face prohibitively high freight costs

  • You would like the option to customize your floor plan
