Stratford Homes Review

Stratford Homes is a modular home manufacturer and designer based in Stratford, Wisconsin. They offer 100+ ADU and single-family models, with floor plans ranging from 236 square feet to 3,964 square feet. In terms of style, Stratford Homes’ homes usually feature traditional home designs such as capes, ranches, cottages, colonials, and even homes for narrow lots. It is worth noting that all models are customizable or buyers can work with Stratford Homes to create a fully-custom home.

Homes from Stratford Homes can be built on foundations to include a crawl space, full basement, or walk-out lower-level basement. Their homes are energy-efficient and are built with green insulation, weatherproofing, and air infiltration systems. Stratford Homes uses computer aided design (CAD) software to help buyers customize their homes, giving buyers full control over their design. Once the design is finalized, the home module is manufactured in Stratford Homes’s central Wisconsin factory. The modules are then shipped to the build site and are set on the foundation and connected. A local contractor then handles on-site work like electrical, heating, and plumbing hookups. All homes come with a 1-year limited warranty, though an additional 10-year limited warranty is available. It is worth noting that while Stratford handles all permitting, manufacturing, and design, on-site work must be completed by a local contractor. Buyers are paired with independent builders from Stratford’s network. Currently, Stratford Homes only operates within the central and northwestern United States and Western Canada.

Strengths:

  • Offer complete home customization

  • Have a wide variety of pre-designed homes

Reasons they might not be for you:

  • You are located outside their central and northwestern operating area

  • You want to work with a company that handles all phases of the project themselves, including site work
