They keep saying it is $3 billion a year that MHVille ads to the GDP.\u00a0 They are demonstrably wrong by more than half.\u00a0 They are an embarrassment to themselves, and to the industry. The total is closer to $6.5 billion, because it is a retail sales figure, not wholesale or Lord-knows what number they pulled out of a hat to arrive at the clearly wrong $3 billion figure.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s mentioned only to show once more that they are either inept, incompetent, uncaring, or whatever phrase you might use to describe people that have spent millions, while shipments stalled, and finally, fell.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/comparing-conventional-housing-data-for-november-2018-to-manufactured-housing-industry-data-nov-2018\/<\/p>\n<p>Conventional housing data &#8211; in historic context &#8211; should be telling us why manufactured homes ought to be roaring, not snoring.\u00a0 That&#8217;s an indictment of MHI, and their puppet masters, pure and simple.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/manufactured-home-production-decline-accelerates-in-november-2018\/<\/p>\n<p>Professionals \u2013 often members of MHI \u2013 say that a lack of good information is part of what holds the industry back.<\/p>\n<p>Others \u2013 producers, for instance \u2013 say the lack of retail distribution is holding the industry back.\u00a0 Pay attention to why Legacy Housing said they pursued their IPO.
