Modular: The Only Way Out: California's Housing Crisis And The Modular Response
Presented by: Amanda Gattenby, Modular Housing Expert
The housing crisis in California is at a fever pitch. The answer to how cities will meet their Regional Housing Needs Allocation goals can benefit from construction industry & management webinars with MBI. Whether it is through innovative financing models like P3 partnerships, traditional subsidies such as low income housing tax credits, or purely private equity, modular construction helps all projects deploy faster. It is simply our best lifeline for climbing out of this crisis to provide adequate, safe, and beautiful housing across the entire market range—from homelessness support to luxury units. Just one modular building factory can produce hundreds of apartment units and thousands of square feet of facilities space. In this presentation, Amanda Gattenby will share case studies of actual projects with correlating data for time-to-market examples as well as case studies of innovative financing models.
