2024 is an exciting time to be a part of the manufactured housing industry. To get more clarity around the current industry buzz, we caught up with President and CEO of Cavco Industries, Bill Boor at the 2024 Innovative Housing Showcase to ask him why manufactured housing might be the hiding-in-plain-sight solution for people searching for affordable housing in today's market. Will we start to see a boom in manufactured housing as traditional builds continue to price out the middle class? We'd love to hear your thoughts! #affordablehousing #manufacturedhousing #housing #innovativehousingshowcase #construction

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), a vital agency at the forefront of ensuring affordable housing for millions of Americans. One of HUD's significant contributions is the establishment of the HUD Code, a set of standards that governs the construction and safety of manufactured homes, including every home Cavco Industries, Inc. designs, builds, finances and sells. Why is the HUD Code such an important part of the manufactured housing industry's history? It impacts the safety, quality assurance, energy efficiency of our homes and more.

On Wednesday, August 14, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs held a ceremonial signing of Housing Legislation passed in the recent legislative session. While four bills were passed, two in particular, HB 2720 and HB 2721, have specific significance for the manufactured housing industry. - HB 2720 makes it easier for homeowners to add Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) on their property by reducing city restrictions to encourage the development of affordable housing. - HB 2721 loosens restrictions on the development of duplexes, triplexes and quadplexes in areas zoned for single-family residential use. This creates new possibilities for Cavco’s new Anthem Duplex line of homes. Attending the ceremony were Cavco’s President and CEO Bill Boor and Flavio Bravo, Program Manager, Homes for Our Own (HFOO) and an Arizona State Senator.

Every great team has a two-fold personnel strategy — make team members better and build a strong bench of talent ready to enter the game at a moment’s notice. Ray Paulk, General Manager at Cavco-Fleetwood Homes in Douglas, Georgia, is doing just that. His team works closely with Wiregrass Georgia Technical College, which is committed to preparing students for successful careers in today’s ever-changing workforce. The first graduates of the school’s new Wiregrass Leadership Academy, which is designed to create the next generation of leaders, are Cavco-Fleetwood team members Zach Adams, Alonzo Tovar and Ben Wetthuhn. “We’re big believers in mentorship, education and developing future leaders,” said Ray. “I took three of my up-and-comers who, while fairly new to our company, have a lot of leadership potential. It’s no surprise they graduated with flying colors.” Wiregrass Leadership Academy students tackle challenges that reinforce leadership education and promote professional and personal growth. The academy curriculum is comprised of 7 modules that include 40 hours of instructional leadership training on the following skills: -Supervisor Communication Skills -Managing Teams -Dynamic Decision Making -Resolving Conflict -Time Management -Leading Through Change -Motivating Employees to Be Their Best Cavco-Fleetwood is working with the college and its Director of Workforce Development Nicole West on additional leadership curriculum and an apprenticeship program that will provide paid work experience, related classroom instruction and nationally recognized credentials. While the leadership academy is new, Cavco-Fleetwood’s participation at Wiregrass Georgia Technical College isn’t. Several months ago, Michael Raulerson, one of Fleetwood’s production associates, earned OSHA 10 certifications through the school for forklift operation and plumbing and electrical. Great job, Cavco-Fleetwood Homes, for broadening team members’ leadership skills and building a bench of top-notch professional talent. It’s a perfect example of the ONE Cavco commitment to invest in team members’ development and success, which maximizes the impact for all our stakeholders. And congratulations Zach, Alonzo and Ben! We look forward to one day watching your leadership skills enhance and grow Cavco-Fleetwood Homes. #professionaldevelopment #training #manufacturing #construction #fleetwoodhomes

At Cavco, we understand that a successful company culture requires more than just a safe workplace, fair pay and opportunities for career development. It must foster respect and provide purpose through a clearly defined set of principles guiding everything from our goals and expectations to how we interact with our fellow team members.    For us, our company culture follows what we call the "ONE Cavco philosophy." Introduced in 2021, this set of core principles outlines our company vision, our approach to work and the way we treat and interact with others.   In early FY2024, we initiated the work of expanding our ONE Cavco principles by outlining actions and behaviors that reflect the beliefs of our original guiding principles. Rather than turning solely to company leaders to share their perspective on our "ONE Cavco Actions," we challenged our teams across the country to show us their ONE Cavco spirit by creating a short video that demonstrates how choosing a positive attitude and having fun can bring us all together and help us move forward as a team.   Our ONE Cavco Video Challenge is an ongoing weekly event that offers a chance to win some cool ONE Cavco team swag! #companyculture #teamwork #manufacturing #sales #realestate #manufacturedhousing

It's always exciting when we get to help someone purchase their new dream home, but it's an even more unique privilege to be able to help people recover after a natural disaster. Earlier this year, Charles and Jo'Lisa Hamilton's land was struck by a deadly tornado that caused considerable damage to their home and the surrounding properties. Their home helped keep them safe and, unlike other homes in the area, it was still standing. But the damage done required it to be replaced. As they shopped for a new home, a friend recommended they visit Palm Harbor Village in Denton where they met Josh and began touring models until they found the beautiful Pecan Valley. “We looked at about five or six layouts,” Charles said. “And the one we found had everything we were looking for.” As the Hamilton's knew, Palm Harbor homes have been tested time and again in heavy weather and natural disaster situations from hurricanes to earthquakes. We were fortunate to be able to join the Hamilton's as they took a tour of their home pre-delivery at the Factory so they could sign it for good luck and celebrate a much-anticipated return to normalcy. Join us in saying congratulations to the Hamilton's on their new home! #positivity #customertestimonial #hometour #manufacturing #manufacturedhome #construction
