FAIR

 

 
 
    This class of residence is constructed to meet code requirements and to provide adequate accommodations. There are a few features that make the residence attractive from the exterior. The interior finishes are minimum with a few features. These residences are usually rectangular (box shaped) with dimensions focused on easy and simple installation. Any projections or adornments are simple and inexpensive. The windows, doors, kitchen cabinets and plumbing fixtures are inexpensive and installed, suitably, but with little concern for appearance. The quality of workmanship is indicative of experienced workers working in an "assembly line" environment.
