Identifying And Addressing The Housing Challenges In Your Community
HOUSING FOR COMMUNITIES
What We Do
Helping rural communities identify and address their unique housing needs through assessment, resource development, education, housing preservation, and modular housing solutions.
How Can We Help?
What is COME HOME?
COME HOME is our holistic, community-centered housing approach to help rural communities identify and address their unique housing needs.
COME HOME has five key components:
Assessment & Planning
Resource Development
Education
Housing Preservation
Modular Housing Development
Why volumetric modular housing?
Volumetric modular homes are one of many innovative solutions that can be adopted at the state level for widespread, positive impact. These off-site constructed homes, assembled on-site, ease the burdens on local municipalities and inspection agencies, especially in rural communities.
- Cut construction time by 50%, costs by 20% and ease the burdens on local municipalities
- Classify as real property, qualify for traditional mortgages, appreciate over time
- Contribute to individual and community wealth-building
- Increased production and cost-saving efficiencies
- Innovative solution that is suited for both rural and urban environments
