  46.  
  47. <ul>
  48. <li>The site is graded</li>
  49. <li>The foundation is built</li>
  50. <li>The home is framed</li>
  51. <li>All the guts are added</li>
  52. <li>The home is finished</li>
  53. </ul>
  54. <p>While this is an overly simplified look it hits the high notes.  This approach to construction usually takes 6-9 months from start to finish with the home enduring all that mother nature has to give for that time frame.</p></div></div></div><div class="x-row x-container max width e838-e15 mna-n mna-o mna-q mna-s"><div class="x-row-inner"><div class="x-col e838-e16 mna-v mna-w"><div class="x-text x-text-headline e838-e17 mna-d mna-f mna-g mna-i"><div class="x-text-content"><div class="x-text-content-text"><h2 class="x-text-content-text-primary">The Best of Both Worlds</h2></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="x-row x-container max width e838-e18 mna-n mna-o mna-q mna-t"><div class="x-row-inner"><div class="x-col e838-e19 mna-v"><div class="x-text x-content e838-e20 mna-k mna-l"><p>At Blue Ridge Homes we say it is the best of both worlds, because:</p>
  55.  
  56. <ul>
  57. <li>As we begin doing all the site preparation and building of the foundation, your new home is already under construction.</li>
  58. <li>Your home is being built in a climate-controlled factory and will never see a rainy day.</li>
  59. </ul>
  60. <p>From the standpoint of indoor air quality, I can not over state how important it is that the building materials in an off-frame modular never get wet!  This helps reduce the chance of organisms such as mold and other fungi ever getting started.</p>
  61. <p>So, from day one you are starting out with a structure that is already well ahead of its site-built cousin, who had to endure months of weather.</p></div></div><div class="x-col e838-e21 mna-v mna-x"><span class="x-image e838-e22 mna-y"><img decoding="async" src="https://blueridgehomesnc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Off-Frame-Modular-Factory-min.jpg" width="320" height="240" alt="Image" loading="lazy"></span></div></div></div></div><div class="x-section e838-e23 mna-0 mna-1 mna-5"><div class="x-text x-text-headline e838-e24 mna-d mna-e mna-f mna-g mna-j"><div class="x-text-content"><div class="x-text-content-text"><h2 class="x-text-content-text-primary">How Blue Ridge Homes Does Off-Frame Modulars</h2></div></div></div><div class="x-container max width e838-e25 mna-7 mna-8"><div class="x-column x-sm x-1-1 e838-e26 mna-a"><div class="x-text x-content e838-e27 mna-k mna-m">At Blue Ridge Homes we call them custom off-frame modulars, because they truly are custom.  We do not sit you down with a book and say pick one.  However, our production partner <a href="https://iconlegacy.com/galleries/">Icon Legacy does have a number of plans</a> to look through to get the creative juices flowing.   What we will do is the following:</div><ul  class="x-feature-list"  data-x-element="feature_list" data-x-params="{&quot;animationOffset&quot;:&quot;50&quot;,&quot;animationDelayInitial&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;animationDelayBetween&quot;:&quot;300&quot;}"><li  class="x-feature-box left-text top-text cf" style=" max-width: none;" data-x-element="feature_box" data-x-params="{&quot;child&quot;:true,&quot;graphicAnimation&quot;:&quot;tada&quot;,&quot;connectorAnimation&quot;:&quot;rotateInUpLeft&quot;,&quot;alignH&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;alignV&quot;:&quot;top&quot;}"><span class="x-feature-box-connector full animated-hide" style="font-size: 60px; left: 0; right: calc(100% - 60px); border-left: 2px dotted #272727;"></span><div class="x-feature-box-graphic circle "><div class="x-feature-box-graphic-outer circle" style=" margin-right: 20px;"><div class="x-feature-box-graphic-inner circle" style="font-size: 60px;"><i class="x-icon-comment circle" data-x-icon-s="&#xf075;"  style="margin: 0 auto; color: #ffffff; background-color: #9c9735;"></i></div></div></div><div class="x-feature-box-content "><h4 class="x-feature-box-title">Initial Consult</h4><p class="x-feature-box-text">Our first meeting we will sit down and discuss your housing objectives.  What are your needs now?
