Who says the holidays bring a slow down in news? We’ve seen two gestures of manufactured housing Christmas kindness hit the media this week, each featuring a home being given away. Nobility Homes kicked off our week with big news about their 2014 results. The 14^th Anniversary of the Manufactured Housing Improvement Act of 2000 (MHIA 2000) was the end-cap on the week that just ended.

2015 housing, energy and economic forecasts where all covered in the Daily Business News. Sandra Lane debunked some errors in a report by Seeking Alpha on one of the largest community operators in the nation. From UFO style pre-fabs to a state slapping an organization for being unlicensed, we’ve covered it.
