Farm diversification means earning from your land beyond traditional farming. A PrefabX modular home is a fully fitted modular building installed in 2 to 3 days that lets you do exactly that, whether as a holiday let earning around £37,000 a year, a farm office, staff accommodation or a farm shop, all for a fixed price with finance available.
Farm diversification with a modular home suits you if
Run as an Airbnb or holiday let at around £150 a night and 68 percent occupancy, a modular home can gross roughly £37,000 a year and recover its cost in around a year.
The same building serves as a farm office, a farm shop, staff or seasonal worker accommodation, or a rural business unit. One shell, fitted for the job.
A galvanised steel frame and an SGS tested, fully insulated envelope with a 50 year design life stand up to a working farm and an open, weather hit plot.

Common questions
Some of the most reliable are holiday lets and glamping, farm offices or rural business units to rent out, staff and seasonal worker accommodation, and farm shops. A modular building suits all of these because it arrives fully fitted, installs in days and can be relocated if your plans change.
A well presented modular home let at around £150 a night and 68 percent occupancy grosses roughly £37,000 a year, and a larger three bedroom unit considerably more. On those figures the building can recover its cost in around a year and then become a steady income stream for the farm.
Often yes, though agricultural and rural sites have several routes, including permitted development rights and prior approval for some changes of use. It depends on the land, the use and your council, so we assess your site and support the application where it is needed.
Yes. Every PrefabX building can be financed through asset finance, hire purchase or leasing, which is well suited to a diversification project where the new income stream covers the repayments while you keep your working capital in the farm.
