Is Your Mum Needing Extra Care?
Are you thinking of inviting your Mum to stay with you and your family? Maybe she recently fell ill and you want to keep a closer eye on her but you don’t want her to think that you are. You want her keep her independence but you want the peace of mind of knowing that you are close by in case something was to happen. Consider purchasing a prefabricated granny flat as a solution. These ready-made homes are fully functional and equipped with the same amenities that a traditional home offers.
Benefits To Purchasing A Prefabricated Granny Flat
The benefits of a prefabricated granny flat are many. First, you can place this type of home almost anywhere: the backyard is an ideal place. Second, your Mum will be close to your family in case she needs something. Third, your mom will continue to be independent because she will be in her own home–it just will be in the back of your house. The grandchildren can have easy access to Grandma and you will have the peace of mind you are looking for. Moreover, it doesn’t have to be an inconvenience for anyone in terms of not having enough space because of your Mum is coming to live with you.
More benefits
While our prefabricated homes are a fraction of the cost of a traditional home, the cost of some elaborate prefabricated houses can be similar to building a traditional house, but a ready-made home, once delivered, is put into place much faster. However, if you wanted to have one specially designed, the time to have one made could be similar to having a specially designed home built from the ground up. The joy about having a prefab home installed is you don’t have to hear the building noise from outside your windows, which would be the case if you were having a non-prefab granny flat installed, because the building takes place at the factory. Another benefit of a prefabricated house is the way it constructed. Your prefab granny flat is made to last.
What are your needs?
What it really comes down to is your needs. Once you have determined those needs and how your needs will be met it will be much easier to decide if a prefabricated granny flat is for you. Hopefully some of the benefits presented here will help you make a well-informed decision.

What a great idea to build a granny flat in your own back yard. Friends of mine built one in their back yard for their 20 year old son – who didn’t want to move out of home, but wanted more privacy. It’s worked out really well – although his mum still does all the washing!!
