A self-contained modular home a first section, a second section and a top section, each section having an interior which is 100% complete and an exterior which requires only siding or other exterior finish for completion. The three sections of the self-contained modular home are designed to be transported on a low boy trailer or other transport system to a permanent foundation site. The modular home incorporates a unique steel cable lifting system within the floor system which enables the modules to be set on the foundation with or without the use of a crane. The modular home is bolted to a permanent slab foundation by a steel strap securing arrangement in such a manner that a one and half inch air space is created under the home. The manner in which the self-contained modular home is constructed and secured to the permanent foundation provides the modular home with up to 160 mph wind protection, which is far greater than the typical 80 mph to 100 mph offered by most site or stick built homes currently on the market. Once the modular home arrives at the construction site, the home can be set and bolted to the concrete slab, made weather tight, connected to the local plumbing and electrical services and an be operational in about three hours.
