Banner Homes: Room to Live. Space to Grow.

Most families hit a moment when they realize that the home that made sense when they moved in just isn’t big enough anymore for their growing family. Kids outgrow sharing a room and want their own spaces. The kitchen no longer comfortably holds everyone invited to mealtimes. And constantly moving furniture around, hoping that’ll create a little more space – never quite does.

OR, perhaps a single person decides they want more space with options for an office or future possibilities. Or a couple wanting a little extra room for just about anything.

How Are Banner Homes by Cavco Built? 

Banner homes are built the way all Cavco manufactured and modular homes are – inside a climate-controlled facility, to the strict standards of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) called the HUD Code, then transported to customer’s home site and professionally installed. 

Building indoors means construction never stops for weather. Materials stay protected throughout the entire build. And because Cavco purchases materials in large quantities, the savings get passed along to buyers in the form of more affordable home prices. 

Every home in the Banner home line meets national standards for structural integrity, energy efficiency, fire resistance, plumbing and electrical systems – and is verified by independent third-party inspectors before it ever leaves the facility.

How Much Does a Banner Home Cost? 

Homes in the Banner home line are at one of our most affordable price points to give growing families more space and family-friendly features – without putting a Banner home out of reach. 

The easiest way to get a hard price is to start by shopping online in your area and then contacting your local home dealer. 

Pricing varies by floor plan, location and what’s included in the retailer’s turnkey quote. Most Cavco retailers build their quotes to cover the home, delivery within a set distance, placement on the foundation and basic site preparation – so you know what you’re getting without having to worry about hidden costs at the end. Your local retailer can walk you through an itemized quote that fits your specific situation. 

It also helps to know that manufactured homes typically cost up to 30%  less than comparable onsite-built construction – a savings gap that comes from a more efficient build process, bulk materials purchasing and no weather delays. 

Where Can I Buy a Home from the Cavco Banner Home Line? 

Homes in the Banner home line are sold through company-owned and independently owned Cavco retailers nationwide – and finding a Cavco retailer near you takes under a minute. 

It's really quick and easy – Use Cavco's Find Your Home tool to enter your ZIP code and browse available homes in the Banner home line at local retailers, complete with photos, floor plans, video walkthroughs and contact information. 

Your local retailer can often help with: 

  • Financing – Manufactured home financing includes specific options like home-only loans with multiple programs available depending on your situation and location. 
  • Land – Many Cavco retailers connect buyers with local real estate professionals who specialize in finding land for manufactured homes or may have retailer-owned lots available in your area. 
  • Move-in-ready homes – Some locations have Banner homes already placed and ready for you to purchase and move in. 

Is Buying a Home from the Banner Home Line a Smart Long-Term Investment? 

Do Banner homes appreciate in value?

A Banner home line house builds equity the same way any home does – through location and consistent maintenance, not construction method. 

Homes built off site generally appreciate at the same rate as other similarly maintained homes built on site in the same area. What matters is where the home sits and how well it’s cared for – not whether it was built in a factory or framed on a lot. 

For growing families, there’s also the straightforward math of monthly costs. A home from the Banner home line typically offers more predictable payments than renting a house with comparable space. And instead of building someone else’s equity with every rent check, you’re building your own equity and a heritage to leave to your family. 


Room to Live. Space to Grow. Banner Homes by Cavco Are Built for That. 

Homes in the Banner home line are built for families and individuals at a specific point in life: when you discover you'd like room to grow and space to spread out. Kids have outgrown sharing a room and need their own space, life has gotten bigger and the home you started in has stopped keeping up. 

Room to cook. Room to gather. Finishes that hold up to real family life. And a price that means comfort doesn't have to come at the expense of financial peace of mind. 

Because a home should grow with you. Homes in the Banner home line by Cavco were built to make sure it can.

Banner Homes Frequently Asked Questions

Homes in the Banner home line are designed for growing families and busy households that need room to grow and space to live and want to stay within a realistic budget. They’re a natural fit for families adding members, blending households or individuals who are simply ready for a home that fits the life they’re living now. They are also perfect for the single member household who simply wants more room for an office, guests or other future plans and wants to invest in their own home. 

What features come standard in a home in the Banner home line?  

Banner homes include generous kitchen islands, modern durable finishes, smart storage and flexible living spaces – details designed to support the way active individuals, couples and families live. Your local Cavco retailer can walk you through exactly what’s included in the floor plans available in your area. 

How long does it take to move into a Banner home?  

Because construction happens in Cavco’s climate-controlled factories rather than on site, homes in the Banner home line can often be completed in a fraction of the time required for on-site-built construction. You can choose a display home already built than can typically be placed and ready in weeks. And once construction begins on a new home, it will usually be completed in about a week. Once the site is prepared and the home arrives, the set up and finish out can begin, depending the timetable established with your local retailer.

Yes. Financing options for manufactured homes include home-only loans and may also include financing similar to those available for on-site-built homes, with multiple programs depending on your situation and location. Your local Cavco retailer can walk you through what’s available in your area. 

Do I need to own land to buy a home from the Banner home line?  

Not necessarily. Many Cavco retailers help buyers find land to purchase or lease – through local real estate referrals, retailer-owned inventory or manufactured home community options. Ask your local retailer what’s available near you. 

Are Cavco homes energy efficient?  

Yes. Homes in the Banner home line are built to HUD Code energy efficiency standards covering insulation, windows, thermal performance and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. 

Are Banner homes well-built manufactured homes?
