RTM Homes Saskatchewan: Price Guide
Complete pricing breakdown for ready-to-move homes across Saskatchewan
What Are RTM Homes?
Ready-to-move (RTM) homes are factory-built houses constructed in a climate-controlled facility, then transported to your lot for final assembly. Because the building process is indoors and standardized, RTM homes typically cost 10-30% less than traditional stick-built construction while maintaining the same quality standards. In Saskatchewan, RTM home prices generally range from $200,000 to over $500,000 depending on size, finishes, and customization level.
RRD Construction Group offers a range of RTM floor plans – including the Eagle, Falcon, Hawk, Raven, River, and Snowy Owl models – with options for both standard and custom designs.

What's Included in the Price?
When comparing RTM home prices, it’s important to understand what’s included in the base price and what requires additional budgeting.
Typically Included. Factory construction of the home shell, interior walls, flooring, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, plumbing and electrical rough-ins, windows and exterior doors, roofing and siding, insulation and drywall, interior paint, and standard light fixtures.
Not Typically Included. Land acquisition and site preparation, foundation and basement (poured concrete or crawl space), utility connections (hydro, water, sewer), driveway and landscaping, permits and development fees, transportation and crane rental for setup, deck, porch, or garage construction, and upgraded finish packages.
Budget an additional 15-25% above the base home price for site work, foundation, and delivery costs in Saskatchewan.
RTM vs Stick-Built: Cost Comparison
One of the most common questions from Saskatchewan home buyers is how RTM homes compare to traditional on-site construction in terms of cost and quality.
Cost. RTM homes are typically 10-30% less expensive than comparable stick-built homes. Factory construction eliminates weather delays, reduces material waste, and optimizes labour efficiency. A 1600 sq ft RTM home might cost $300,000-$350,000 while the same design built on-site could run $380,000-$450,000.
Timeline. RTM construction takes 8-16 weeks in the factory versus 6-12 months for stick-built. Site preparation (foundation, utilities) can run concurrently, further shortening the overall project timeline.
Quality Control. Factory-built homes are constructed in a controlled environment with consistent quality standards, inspections at every stage, and engineered for transportation. Stick-built homes are more susceptible to weather-related issues and on-site quality variation.
Customization. Stick-built offers more flexibility for last-minute changes. RTM plans are finalized before construction begins, though RRD offers custom design services for unique requirements.
What Factors Affect RTM Home Pricing?
Size and Floor Plan. Larger plans with more bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage cost more. Premium models like the Eagle and Falcon carry higher base prices than compact designs like the Hawk or Raven.
Finishes and Upgrades. Standard builders-grade finishes keep costs down. Upgraded flooring, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, and appliances can add $20,000-$60,000 to the final price.
Site Preparation. Land clearing, excavation, driveway installation, and utility connections vary widely by location. Rural properties may require septic systems and well drilling, adding $15,000-$40,000.
Foundation Type. A full basement adds significant cost but also adds livable space. Crawl space or slab-on-grade foundations are more affordable options.
Transport and Setup. Delivery distance from the factory to your lot, crane rental, and on-site finishing all factor into the total price.
