Our Review |
| Editor's Rating |

| Editorial Review | Cavalier Homes mostly builds manufactured mobile homes. With seven factories they produce homes targeted towards the low to mid range market in the Southern states. It is part of a large home building corporation that includes Astro Homes, Bellcrest Homes, Brigadier Homes, Buccaneer Homes, Homestead Homes, Spirit Homes Riverchase Homes Mansion Homes and Town & Country Homes. We have concerns since they do tend to focus on the lower end of the market and produce many mobile homes. They are not the strongest modular producer in their region. Many of the floorplans we looked at appear to be glorified mobile homes that would not blend in very well in most communities. Our mystery shopper did not enjoy their website which is very simple to use since it has very little information. |

Personal Reviews of Cavalier Homes
 Christopher from Concord, Virginia Owned a 2003 model Brigadier Home built by Cavalier, and I was extremely disappointed with the quality of construction. I made some warranty claims which were partially satisfied, but had constant water leaks from the cheap plumbing that was intstalled. The walls started to bow after about 2 years, and the bedroom wall started to separate after 2 1/2 years. And that was the good features of the home! There are far better modular providers out there, and remember that you get what you pay for! Don't waste your money on anything built by Cavalier.  Elaine Segers from Grand Ridge, Florida We just moved into a beautiful ranch modular home by Cavalier built at the Addison plant. Everything is sheetrock with beautiful crown molding. This home appears to be built better than many of the site built homes we looked at prior to deciding on a modular. Everyone who handled our home from financing to move in was wonderful to deal with. Thank you US Homes, Marianna, Florida and Cavalier!!
