Key Terms
offsite-built homestechnical
Homes that are largely built in a factory or other controlled facility and then transported to and assembled on their permanent site; this includes modular, panelized, and manufactured houses. For investors, offsite-built homes matter because factory construction can cut build time, reduce cost surprises, and improve quality consistency—like buying a car made on an assembly line rather than handcrafted on location—affecting developers’ margins, delivery schedules, and exposure to labor and weather risks.
hud-coded crossmodregulatory
A HUD-coded CrossMod is a manufactured home built to federal HUD construction standards that also meets additional design and quality benchmarks allowing it to be treated more like a traditional site-built house for mortgage purposes. For investors, CrossMod labeling matters because it can expand the pool of homes eligible for conventional mortgage financing, which affects demand, resale values, loan securitization, and the credit risk profile for lenders and mortgage-backed securities tied to manufactured housing.
modular homestechnical
Modular homes are complete houses built in controlled factory sections and assembled on site, similar to putting together large, finished Lego pieces to form a finished home. For investors, they matter because this approach can cut construction time and costs, improve quality consistency, and scale production more predictably than traditional building — all factors that affect developers’ margins, project timelines, and the housing supply that influences property values.
hud coderegulatory
A HUD Code is a set of federal construction and safety standards for manufactured homes enforced by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; it governs design, materials, fire safety, and energy efficiency. For investors, HUD Code certification signals that a home product meets regulatory requirements and is more likely to be sellable and insurable, similar to how a vehicle’s safety rating affects buyer confidence and resale value.
TROY, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Champion Homes, Inc. (NYSE: SKY) (“Champion Homes”) today announced its exciting display highlighting the quality and attainability of offsite-built homes at the National Association of Home Builders of the United States (NAHB) International Builders’ Show (IBS).
Offering an attainable path to homeownership for savvy homebuyers, the Coral Haven is a high quality, offsite-built home introduced by Champion Homes at the NAHB International Builders’ Show. Rendering provided by Champion Homes.
The company is proud to bring one of its brand new offsite-built homes, the Coral Haven, to the building industry’s premier event February 17-19 in Orlando, Fla. Housing leaders and industry professionals will have the opportunity to tour the modern and inviting three-bedroom, two-bathroom, 1,486-square-foot home providing a cost-effective path to homeownership.
“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to showcase Champion Homes’s forward-thinking approach to building attainable housing,” said Champion Homes President and CEO Tim Larson. “There is a critical need for cost-effective housing across the country, and we’re committed to delivering solutions so more people can have a high-quality, beautiful and attainable home to call their own.”
Built at Champion Homes’s Ocala, Fla., manufacturing facility, the Coral Haven pairs clean lines and warm tones for timeless curb appeal. The interior features an open concept layout with beamed ceilings, a spacious kitchen island and abundant natural light. Blending comfort and functionality, the Coral Haven represents a fresh, budget friendly approach to stylish living.
Modern offsite-built homes like the Coral Haven are a high-quality, attainable housing solution built on quicker timelines than site-built homes, so families can move in faster. They generate significantly less neighborhood noise, traffic and site waste than onsite construction, making them ideal for new developments, land-lease communities and urban infill areas where residents already live in the area.
Offsite-built homes are constructed in a climate-controlled environment that leverages a skilled, centralized workforce. These advantages enhance reliability and cost-effectiveness, offering new opportunities for affordable homeownership.
With options to build as a HUD-coded CrossMod® or a modular home, the Coral Haven delivers flexibility for a wide range of homeowners and developments, spotlighting the versatility of offsite-built homes.
CrossMod® homes, which stands for crossover modern homes, are a high quality, attainable housing solution built according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) code. They have amenities typically found in site-built homes, such as garages, carports, steeper roof pitches and energy efficient features. CrossMod homes can be built on permanent foundations, including basements, and they’re eligible for many traditional financing options, providing an attainable path to homeownership.
Modular homes are built according to the same regional, state and local building codes as site-built homes. They can be built on permanent foundations, including basements. Modular homes offer greater flexibility with more opportunities for customization, and they’re eligible for a wide range of financing options.
“As a smart-built home that leverages the benefits of offsite construction, the Coral Haven represents Champion’s dedication to developing dynamic housing solutions for thoughtful homebuyers looking for a beautiful, high quality home they can afford,” said Champion Homes Vice President of Sales Mike Tweden.
