The Tunica Manufactured Housing Show in Mississippi shared the spotlight this week with the House Financial Services Committee passing the Preserving Access to Manufactured Housing Act out of committee and headed to the House floor for a vote. Additionally, IKEA prepares to ship 10,000 durable modular shelters to Iraqi homeless and questions remain about advancing interest rates and their affect on the overall housing market. MHARR questions rule-making by the U. S. Department of Energy, and demand rises for manufactured home communities.
