residential housing
Manufactured housing has evolved significantly and rapidly in the aftermath of the mid-aughts housing crisis, becoming a high-demand residential asset class known for its affordability and modern amenities.
Often plagued by stereotypes, the industry has made substantial strides in quality, design, and energy efficiency. As of 2023, there are over 4.3 million manufactured home sites in the U.S., with approximately 93,000 new units produced annually (Multi Housing News) (MHInsider). Manufactured housing communities offering versatile residential options in urban and suburban areas have consistently provided reliable income streams and capital appreciation where traditional residential housing vehicles have faltered, hampered by climbing mortgage rates and overzealous judicial intervention in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.
