HUD’s Office of Manufactured Housing Programs Rocked, plus Manufactured Housing Investing, Stock Updates

DowJones9.21.2020ManufacturedHomeStockUpdatesBroaderMarketSnapshotAn exclusive tip from an informed and reliable source that has been confirmed by MHProNews reveals that HUD’s Office of Manufactured Housing Program (OMHP) is being rocked by a serious allegation.

To set the stage for the pending report, the HUD website says that the OMHP “administers the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974…”

The HUD site also features some problematic verbiage. To wit, this use of the term ‘mobile home’ is one of several such example, which HUD should know better than to use without a better explanation. More on such problematic statements from HUD on their own site in an upcoming report.

The Office of Manufactured Housing Programs regulates the construction of all manufactured (mobile) homes built in the United States.”

But the tip, which will be teased in our featured focus segment this evening, found after the quotable quotes, left-right headlines, and two of our three market graphic summary at the closing bell today.

Featured Focus –
Where Business, Politics and Investing Can Meet

HUDLogoOfficeManufacturedHousingProgramsRockedRICKRobinsonPhotoManufacturedHousingInvestingStockUpdatesMHProNews

Rick Robinson was the general counsel during the Richard “Dick” Jennison tenure as President and CEO of the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI).

Robinson has written about topics such as ‘dirty politics’ and refusal of public officials to do what their job descriptions required, per the author and related plugs for his novels.

During his time at MHI, Robinson reportedly contacted one or more state association executives regarding the periodic ‘leaks’ of information from MHI to MHProNews.

Fast forward to today.

A confirmed tip from a reliable source has told MHProNews that HUD’s Office of Manufactured Housing Programs (OMHP) is abuzz with activity regarding a report that the Manufactured Housing Association for Regulatory Reform has released.

Barring the unforeseen, that MHARR report paired with some HUD/industry insider insights, will be our morning report on MHProNews on 9.22.2020.

Notice:

MHProNews benefits from an array of sources that provide periodic tips, comments, and insights on issues that matter to manufactured housing industry professionals. A caller recently said that MHProNews is the best ‘investigative’ report source in the industry. Those kind words merit the credit for our industry leading coverage needs to be passed along to MHProNews sources and supporters.

Some sources provide a single insight on a relevant topic that they are familiar with. Others are periodic providers of information.

Given the industry’s underperformance and evidence based allegations of the industry being hobbled from within, such reports are necessary for white hat independents and ethical investors.
