In terms of product type, the market is primarily divided into single-section and multi-section homes. Single-section homes are more popular due to their compact size, lower cost, and quicker installation.

From the ownership prospective, the market includes land-lease communities and owner-occupied lots.

Manufactured homes provide a cost-effective alternative without compromising on safety or livability. In addition, increasing awareness of energy-efficient housing solutions and faster construction timelines appeal to environmentally conscious and time-sensitive buyers.
