Few questions….
The windows seemed to be in place/installed already. Must be very efficient and better quality done in the factory rather than on site.
Seems that some houses still were built by block. I assume some models aren’t in the mix for factory built walls.
Does this type of construction allow for modifications by the lot owner? ie moving/changing windows, door, etc location….
Our Designer home, we built in 2013- we were able to move, enlarge etc. nice feature. Overall I love the prebuilt concrete walls. Seems to be great cost savings plus quality.

From an electrical standpoint, we are still able to make aftermarket modifications to precast model homes. There may be surface mounted materials (boxes, pipe, etc.) in some instances.
