Houses built in assembly line fashion in a factory have come a long way since the pre-fabricated cracker boxes of the 1950’s. No one knows that better than Gene Richter, who owns Royal Homes, Inc. in Summerville. In the early 1980’s when the building industry went kaput and interest rates went sky high, Gene Richter a licensed contractor built over 400 houses in various subdivisions in lower Dorchester County. While watching the housing trends, he realized that consumers could buy more for their money with off-site construction and manufactured housing.

In 1985, Gene Richter began Royal Homes, Inc. in Summerville selling manufactured and off-site construction homes. Today, you can still get more for your money at Royal Homes. Modern manufactured and off-site construction homes are built in a factory still meeting and exceeding the same standards as a house built on a site. The factory uses the same materials as individual building contractors. We provide turnkey assistance when buying an off-site modular home. We help our customers from the buying of the land, to setting up the home, to pouring driveways. We are still saving people thousands of dollars and giving them basically the same house you could buy that was built on a site.
