HUD's Innovative Housing Showcase returned to the National Mall from September 6–10, 2025. This year's showcase — "The American Home is the American Dream" — highlighted history-defining events in housing, the pride of achieving the American Dream of homeownership, and the future of housing innovation.
The Homes on Display at the 2025 Innovative Housing Showcase
UMH Properties exhibited homes on the National Mall—marking its fifth time participating in this important event. This year, UMH sponsored three homes in partnership with Cavco Industries, Champion Homes and Ritz-Craft.
Clayton Homes also exhibited a home for the showcase, displaying a single-section CrossMod® home that highlights the innovation and versatility of this home category.
MHI appreciated the engagement of these exhibitors, as the showcase continues to be an effective way to demonstrate to policymakers the quality and attainability of manufactured housing. The homes on display represented a range of types and siting options that respond to the nation’s diverse housing supply needs.

Home Buyers
There is simply no substitute for owning your own home. Manufactured homes are the most affordable homeownership option, and put the American Dream within reach for millions
of families.
Today’s manufactured homes offer quality construction, customizable floor plans and amenities comparable to site-built homes.
Policy Makers
Manufactured housing is the largest form of unsubsidized affordable housing in the U.S. and the only type of housing built to a federal construction and safety standard (the HUD Code). The affordability of manufactured homes enables individuals to obtain housing that is often much less expensive than renting or financing the purchase of a site-built home.
