WILL THEY ASSIST IN THE INSTALLATION PROCESS?

Blu Homes handles all design, delivery, and foundation setting. Buyers must work
with a third-party contractor to prepare the site for the home.

WHAT CODES DO THEY COMPLY WITH?

Blu Homes designs and builds all its projects to local requirements, such as HOA
and local zoning ordinance to comply with local building codes.

WHERE DO I GO TO DEAL WITH THE PAPERWORK AND PERMITS NEEDED?

Blu Homes will manage the permitting for your home.

WHERE DO THEY SHIP TO?

Blu Homes has designed and built in 31 states, however, their demand is such
that we are currently only building in California.

DO THEY OFFER A WARRANTY?

Blu Homes offers a 10-year structural warranty, 2-year systems warranty, and
1-year workmanship warranty. 

PROCESS LENGTH

There are two time frames to consider in the Blu Homes building process:
“Pre-Permit” and “Post Permit.” Blu Homes does not control the pre-permitting
time frame, which entails acquiring design, engineering, and local government
approval–including “design review” in some locations. Pre-Permitting can be as
fast as three months and as long as twelve months, depending on your
municipality.

* 8 weeks to build in the factory
* 1 day to set the home
* 2 days - 4 weeks to finish on site

Our Review

Strengths

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Weaknesses

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
