\"MMarkWeissCEO-MHARR-ManufacturedHousingAssociationforRegulatoryReform-posted-IndustryVoices-MHProNews\"The\u00a0establishment of the HUD Code was — and is — an important milestone for both the industry and consumers.\u00a0 The industry itself sought out federal regulation under a preemptive, performance-based, uniform code of federal standards that balances the key factors of safety and cost,\u00a0along with uniform enforcement within\u00a0a federal-state partnership.<\/p>\n

This type of federal regulation — so long as it is reasonable — allows the industry to pass-along the efficiencies of factory-construction to home buyers, in the form of unparalleled affordability and quality.<\/p>\n

By every objective measure available, today’s manufactured homes have achieved the level of quality, durability, and safety that Congress envisioned when it passed the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974.<\/p>\n

Now, it is time for HUD to take\u00a0real<\/u>\u00a0measures to support and expand the availability and acceptance of those HUD Code homes as Congress directed in the Manufactured Housing Improvement Act of 2000.\u00a0 To do that, however, will require a major shake-up of the HUD program by the Trump Administration.<\/p>\n
