Modern Family Houses are made from Steel!

Welcome to Modern Family Houses. We are here to help you find land in New Jersey or New York City and design a custom home from top to bottom that meets your needs. That means customized bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, closets, deck, backyard, landscape and pool. The best part is that you can expect to pay the same or less for a brand-new, custom-made home as you would for an old house in the same neighborhood.

The building technique we use is called Pre-Assembled Houses (a new type of prefabricated house built with a steel frame instead of wood). We can build nearly any style of home you can dream of – including traditional, colonial, villa, and even all-glass – in accordance with the standard state building codes of New Jersey and New York. You can expect your new build to be completed within approximately one year; this includes an estimated three months to design the home and nine months to build and install it on the property. We help you to find the perfect building site, work with you to develop a design you love, and build it for you from the ground up.

Our Quality

Modern Family Houses are engineered and assembled in our factory and then disassembled and shipped to the construction site. Once the home arrives, we re-assemble it on-site within a matter of weeks. Like traditional “sticks-and-bricks” construction, our steel homes are constructed in accordance with state and local building codes. All you need to do is find a piece of land and we can build a custom steel house practically anywhere.
