That’s almost 40 years that families in the upper Midwestern United States and Canada have enjoyed affordable, luxurious Cavco - Montevideo homes that don’t compromise on safety and construction. All feature the latest high-quality, cutting-edge components and amenities.

Environmentally Friendly Home Construction

Building homes indoors in our environmentally friendly building centers protects the components and materials that go into every Cavco - Montevideo manufactured and modular model home from the elements. This means each home is protected from rain, snow, sleet, wind and theft. It reduces waste, protects materials and prevents loss. It also means our Cavco - Montevideo construction teams build homes year around without weather delays experienced by site-built homebuilders. In addition, our off-site, building center construction means our professionals are well-trained and experienced craftsmen and craftswomen who are members of the local communities. Our green initiatives are far-reaching, as well; we diligently practice recycling and the repurposing of materials to reduce waste and minimize the use of landfills. Of course, nothing we do diminishes the quality and strength of construction that Cavco - Montevideo customers have enjoyed since 1986. 

Every homeowner wants a beautiful dream home where they can proudly host friends and family. That’s one of the many reasons so many have turned to Cavco - Montevideo. You can choose from the latest colors, amenities and options to perfectly fit your needs and style. Our homes are not only known for providing a fresh, contemporary look and feel, but also being ruggedly built to provide years of comfort for families of all sizes.
