Some high end modulars are virtually indistinguishable from stick
built once assembled and if mounted on concrete foundations really
ought to be treated as houses by even the most tight ass of building
permit issuers.

Every place is different but YK has several types of residential
zones:

RR (Restricted Residential): large lots, stick built only, minimum
1600 sf homes, no suites, home occupations, schools or churches,
just single family detached homes.

R1 single family, modulars allowed but not mobile homes, basement
suites, home businesses, schools, churches all OK.

R2 All R1 uses plus duplexes.

R3 medium density multifamily

R4 high rise multifamily

R5 mobile homes (out of 7000 dwellings over 1000 are R5 zoned)

I don't think so. I work on a percentage and would starve to death
flogging $600 lots and $25,000 homes. According to realtor.com your
city's median average home sale $116,700. I'll stay here, sell $400K
places and pay a little extra for my steaks!

Then I'd say they were being pretentious ... "what we now consider to
be a shotgun was referred to as a "fowling piece" through out both
America and Great Britain well into the 1800s" and "In Great Britain
the words 'fowling piece' began dropping out of use by 1800" ...

For once I've got you beat! Wild caught Pacific salmon from B.C.
$3.99 per pound (on special, not everyday). Mind you I'm talking
about pink salmon here, not coho or sockeye.

Somebody should be up on fraud charges! And can't the customers tell
the difference? And who would want to batter beautiful walleye?
