The shortage of affordable housing is one of the largest unresolved issues in commercial real estate today. Huge numbers of renters are struggling to find a place to live within their means, and the problem is only getting worse in the current economic environment. Since the growing demand for affordable housing presents an opportunity for unconventional solutions, the manufactured housing industry may be well-positioned to reap the benefits of that pent-up demand. In 2019, 4,000 new manufactured homes shipped at an average sale price of $84,600 excluding land acquisition costs. This makes manufactured homes one of the fastest-growing housing segments. With low acquisition and operating costs, manufactured housing can be a potentially attractive investment opportunity.

In this timely and informative webinar, topics that will be discussed:

  • Why investors are attracted to manufactured homes
  • How to evaluate various manufactured homes investments
  • Where are the hot areas?
  • Considerations for manufactured homes for 1031 and DST investors
