ModelTown's take

One contact for a California ADU, but the listed price is not your total

A San Jose dealer that sells and installs factory-built, HUD-code homes and ADUs, mainly in California.

  • One contact: design, permits, factory build, delivery, installation and final inspections.
  • Who builds it: Meka says it is the exclusive California dealer for Pinnacle Construction. Ask who builds your model.
  • Real cost: listed prices don't include site work. Meka says the all-in cost usually runs 50–60% higher.
  • Timeline: 5–8 months, counted from permit approval.
  • Also: a fire-rebuild process, and help from lenders with construction-to-permanent and FHA loans.

Worth exploring if

  • You want an ADU or a replacement home in California and would rather have one company handle permits, delivery and setup.
  • You are rebuilding after a wildfire. Meka offers a fire-rebuild process that works with insurance claims.
  • Your lot, lender and local rules allow a HUD-code home.

Clarify before committing

  • The full project cost. Meka's own FAQ says the all-in cost with site work usually runs 50 to 60 percent above the base price.
  • Which floor plans and prices are current for your area.
  • Service outside California. Meka lists six other Western states, but California is its main market.

Beyond the listing

What "turnkey" covers

Meka says turnkey means design, engineering, permits, the factory build, site prep, delivery, installation, utility connections and final inspections. Its FAQ also says the base price covers permits and installation, but not site work. Ask which items are in your quote, which are allowances, and which are extra.

HUD code, not state modular

Meka says all of its homes are built to the federal HUD code and California's Title 24 energy rules. Some lenders, insurers, HOAs and zoning rules treat HUD-code homes differently from site-built or state-modular homes. Check with your lender and planning department before you pick a model.

The timeline starts at permit approval

Meka's 5 to 8 month estimate counts from permit approval, not from your first call. How long permits take depends on your city or county. Ask for a schedule that includes permit review.
