MARTINEZ, Calif. – Apr. 18 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — There has been much recent press about the decline in new homes sales for the first part of 2007, but Altamont Homes, Inc., a licensed general contractor, has not been negatively affected; the company has recently expanded to seven western states – California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Arizona. <\/p>\n

\"\"According to Eric Peterson, President of Altamont Homes, Inc., the reason for this expansion is due to the company’s specialization in off-site construction. Altamont Homes sells and performs the on-site assembly of homes and multi-family buildings which are built off-site in controlled-factory environments. <\/p>\n

These are not manufactured or mobile homes; they are conventional housing with the same amenities, appearance, financing, and code compliance as houses built on-site. This type of construction is commonly known as pre-built or true modular housing in Eastern and Central portions of the U.S., but it has only recently started making a significant impact in the West. <\/p>\n

The Automated Building Consortium reported that between 1995 and 2005, this type of construction has steadily been on the rise; it has more than doubled. <\/p>\n

One of the main reasons for the rise in popularity is cost. Peterson explains that California homes that are identical to theirs, but “stick-built” on site by a contractor cost between $175 and $300 per square foot. <\/p>\n

Altamont Homes can save clients hundreds of thousands of dollars by building homes off-site in an efficient and quality-controlled production facility.<\/p>\n

Altamont Homes works with 16 different factory suppliers throughout the West to provide developers and custom-home clients with the best off-site built housing choice for their needs, location, and budget. <\/p>\n

A full spectrum of services is offered to clients through all phases of the building process. This includes: obtaining permits, grading, installing utilities, building foundations, on-site assembly and finish of the off-site built homes. Altamont Homes also provides project consulting services and training to other contractors and developers.<\/p>\n

Houses range from standard to luxury. Project managers will work with clients to customize elements to create the home of their dreams. <\/p>\n

“We may be the only construction company in the West that has the experience and ability to deliver, assemble and finish off-site constructed homes in any part of any of the seven states that we are licensed in,” Peterson said. <\/p>\n

Altamont Homes has assembly and finish crews that are mobile and capable of assembling and finishing a single home or a whole development in a remote area in a cost effective and efficient manner. <\/p>\n

“Attention to detail and excellence in workmanship is never sacrificed,” Peterson explained. <\/p>\n

Altamont Homes is also planning the launch of a new web site to showcase their custom, luxury off-site constructed homes that can be delivered and assembled anywhere in the states that it currently serves.<\/p>\n
