Modular Housing Production Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to review Federal Housing Administration (FHA) construction financing programs to find barriers to using modular homes, which are built in factories in sections and assembled on site. Within one year, HUD would publish a report on the review, including recommended changes to reduce those barriers. Within 120 days after the report, HUD would start a rulemaking on an alternative loan draw schedule for modular and manufactured home developers, then either issue a final rule or explain why it will not. The bill would also allow HUD to award a grant to study a standardized code system for modular homes and authorizes funding for that study.
