| Editorial Review | Homes of Merit is a very good provider of mobile homes at affordable prices. If you are looking for a custom modular home they are not for you. Their homes are targeted to entry level home buyers. They do provide a good warranty and we have a feeling you will need it. We are not comfortable with Homes of Merit and would suggest looking at the other modular home options. We feel that their homes have a hard time comparing with the other modular homes available. |

Personal Reviews of Homes of Merit
 Moray from Crescent City We just found out that our roof truss was made from 2X2 wood,not 2x4 as we thought was Florida code...is this legal??? There have been numerous problems which have been fixed but the warranty is is almost over and I just had part of the siding fall off the house and hit me, it was not nailed at all!!! We are sitting here wondering if this thing will hold up past the loan?? Other than the good service they have provided we are not very trusting of the quality.
