Manufactured homes are a quality, energyefficient and affordable housing choice in America that costs less than sitebuilt houses. “A Section 8 voucher holder will now have the option to use their federal housing assistance to cover the full annual cost of purchasing a manufactured home.

“A Section 8 voucher holder will can use their federal housing help cover the entire annual price of investing in a manufactured home. What the law states doesn’t need a Section 8 recipient to use their voucher to reside in a manufactured home, nor will it authorize utilization of a voucher for any lower payment.

Since 2000, the U.S. Department of Housing and concrete Development (HUD) has permitted Section 8 tenants to make use of their vouchers toward purchasing a house. HUD developed the Housing Choice Voucher Program to supply an chance for lowearnings families to pursue homeownership.

WASHINGTON, D.C. The Department of Housing and Urban Development announced today its proposals for updating the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, commonly referred to as the “HUD Code.” The proposed updates were published in the Federal Register and are the largest set of changes to the HUD Code in over two decades.

“Manufactured homes are an important element of the nation’s affordable housing supply,” said Assistant Secretary for Housing Julia Gordon. “These proposed updates, when final, will help to expand the availability of safe and affordable homes that align with current design trends and construction methods.”

Containing new and updated standards, including 88 standards incorporated by reference, the proposed rule will bring the HUD Code in line with more recent manufactured housing industry standards and further improve the quality and safety of manufactured home construction. Proposed changes in the rule will facilitate innovation and greater production of manufactured homes with features that are soughtafter by consumers and that are common consumer needs for modern living, including: multiunit dwellings; ridgeroof designs; open floor plans, truss designs, specifications for attics, and accessibility improvements, among others.

The proposed updates are available for public comment for 60 days. Comments must be submitted via the methods described in the proposed rule.

22 million people live in manufactured homes throughout the country. The BidenHarris Administration views manufactured homes as a priority solution for solving the nation’s affordable housing challenges. Proposing updates and additions to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, commonly referred to as the “HUD Code” is one way HUD is playing a leading role in fostering increased production and broader consumer acceptance of manufactured housing as a viable, affordable, and comparable alternative to a sitebuilt home.

Materials that facilitate modern design approaches and improve quality: Updates to reference standards for materials (wood, steel, piping) and products will align with other building standards, will allow the use of more modern design approaches and installation of alternative materials, and will improve the quality and safety of homes for consumers.
Ridge roof designs: Revising definitions and regulatory language will allow certain specified roof ridge designs (peak cap and peak flip roof assemblies) without a requirement for specific onsite inspections by a HUDapproved agency, except for certain exclusions. This type of roof installation is common throughout the industry and uses technology that is timetested. This will be beneficial for manufacturers and consumers by incorporating more recent design practices into the regulations and eliminating unnecessary inspections and associated costs.
Multiunit manufactured homes: Proposed changes to regulatory language address multiunit dwellings, proposing allowance of up to three units while assuring comprehensive fire safety to multiunit occupants by adding benchmarks and guidelines that meet Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety standards. This may help to further leverage manufactured housing as a means of addressing affordable housing needs.
