Northern Virginia's Premier Home Builder Unveils Sustainable Modular Homes

August 10, 2021
Van Metre Homes

Sustainability has recently become a major factor that homebuyers consider. Joseph Wheeler, professor of architecture at Virginia Tech School of Architecture and Design, explains that "[Modular construction gives] the builder control of a hundred percent of the job" especially since 95% of the modular home's pieces are created in Van Metre's Winchester, VA factory. Not only is this more efficient than traditional home building, but it also prevents waste as it allows Van Metre builders to order materials down to the exact dimension in bulk.
