Custom Home Building
Oasis Homes designs and constructs fully personalized residences combining stick-built and modular techniques. Our process begins with client consultations to understand lifestyle needs, followed by architectural design and material selection. We ensure structural integrity through advanced engineering and quality control measures, delivering energy-efficient homes with features like radiant flooring and cathedral ceilings. Clients receive detailed cost breakdowns before construction begins, avoiding unexpected expenses.
Modular Construction
Our modular homes are precision-engineered in climate-controlled facilities then assembled on-site. This method reduces construction time by 30-50% while maintaining superior structural quality with 20-25% additional framing. Homes meet or exceed Michigan building codes and include energy-saving features like synthetic felt underlayment and advanced insulation. Third-party inspections ensure compliance, and we offer 10-year structural warranties through Residential Warranty Corporation.
Land Assessment
We analyze properties for development potential, distinguishing between developed (utility-connected) and undeveloped land requiring infrastructure. Services include topographical surveys, septic/well planning, and driveway access design. Our team identifies optimal home placement considering views, drainage, and local regulations, providing cost estimates for necessary site improvements like tree clearing or land leveling.
Design-Build Process
Our integrated approach combines design and construction under one contract, streamlining communication and accountability. Clients receive fixed pricing before work begins, with regular progress updates throughout the 4-6 month timeline. This method reduces costs by 10-20% compared to traditional builder-architect models while maintaining strict quality control through our in-house project management teams.
Universal Design Homes
We create age-in-place ready homes with features like zero-step entries, wide doorways (36+ inches), and lever-style hardware. Bathrooms include roll-in showers and reinforced walls for future grab bars. Open floor plans accommodate mobility devices, while non-slip flooring and ample lighting enhance safety. These designs benefit families with young children, aging residents, or anyone valuing barrier-free living spaces.

Questions
What's the difference between modular and stick-built homes?
Modular homes are factory-built in sections then assembled on-site, offering faster construction and tighter quality control. Stick-built homes are constructed entirely on-site. Both meet the same building codes, but modular homes often have superior structural integrity due to factory engineering.
Can I fully customize my modular home?
Yes! We modify standard plans or create custom designs up to 5,500 sq ft. Features like cathedral ceilings, custom millwork, and energy-efficient systems can be incorporated into modular designs despite common misconceptions.
How does the design-build process work?
Our single-contract approach combines design and construction. After initial consultation, we create fixed-cost plans with detailed specifications. Clients receive regular progress updates while our team handles permits, material sourcing, and construction scheduling.
What financing options are available?
We partner with national lenders offering construction loans convertible to mortgages. Our team helps clients compare financing packages and select options matching their budget and long-term financial goals.
What warranties are included?
Modular homes include a 10-year structural warranty from Residential Warranty Corporation. Workmanship warranties cover specific components, with our service team addressing any post-completion issues promptly.
How long does construction take?
Modular homes typically complete in 4-6 months (including site prep), 30-50% faster than stick-built. Timeline includes 4 weeks factory construction plus on-site assembly and finishing work.
