mods can u please move to appropriate page -
I know a guy that has an older modular home on stilts. Not at the coast, but near a creek bottom that floods every decade or so.
My advice, if you are going that direction, would be to make sure the home is equipped to handle hurricane winds, as it will be totally exposed up on stilts. Other than that, I would assume it's just a matter of properly spacing the stilts and getting a crane to get the home up there.Comment
