The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), the national association representing the real estate finance industry, submits these comments on HUD's proposed revisions to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards. Although the proposal addresses construction standards, these changes can affect the availability of mortgage financing for manufactured housing. MBA supports regulatory modernization that reduces unnecessary costs, encourages housing innovation, and expands sustainable financing and affordable homeownership opportunities.
Abstract
FR-6537-P-01 This proposed rule would amend the definition of ‘‘manufactured home’’ in HUD’s Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards (MHCSS), Model Manufactured Home Installation Standards (MMHIS), and Manufactured Home Installation Program (MHIP) to provide that a transportable section of a manufactured home serving as part of an upper floor of a manufactured home would not need to be transported or built on a permanent chassis.
