Get Prices for Portable Classrooms and Modular Buildings in Texas – Rent or Buy

Prices vary depending on size, design, and whether you’re renting (leasing) or buying. In today’s market, you can expect to buy any standard-sized and in-stock modular building for as little as $110,000 up to several hundred thousand dollars. You must also factor in architectural design time and fees, permitting, site work, handicap, and standard access ways.

For $110,000.00, expect to find something used in good condition with less than 1,000 square feet of office or classroom space. The same modular building or portable classroom manufactured new for your specific needs would cost between $130,000.00 and $200,000.00. So, for your budgeting purposes, use a minimum of $125.00 per square foot for used structures and a minimum of $145.00 per square foot for newly manufactured structures.

Remember, Texas requires a building permit for any modular building, portable classroom, or office trailer. You can learn about your requirements and the laws at the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation’s page for modular buildings.
