Prefabricated Housing: United States

Report Overview

This report forecasts to 2030 US prefabricated housing demand in units. Total demand is segmented by type in terms of manufactured and modular, and panelized and precut.

To illustrate historical trends, total demand is provided in annual series from 2019 to 2025; and the various segments are reported for 2019 and 2025.

Prefabricated disaster relief homes are included in the study as long as they do not have the appearance of tent-like structures and are likely to be used beyond a temporary basis.

Traditional site-built homes using some prefabricated building components (e.g., pre-hung windows or doors) are excluded from the scope of the study, as are prefabricated structures used for nonresidential purposes.

Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
