Innovations in Manufactured Homes (I’m HOME) Annual Conference 2025

Setembro 10, 2025 - Setembro 11, 2025

Offered in inglês

The Innovations in Manufactured Homes (I’m HOME) Network is committed to promoting manufactured housing as a safe, secure, and affordable path to homeownership. Utilizing research, data, and multisector collaboration, the I’m HOME Network seeks to keep the dream of affordable homeownership alive for those who need it most. As a network, I’m HOME brings together manufactured stakeholders, including researchers, advocates, policymakers, industry experts, and homeowners.

The I’m HOME Network hosts an annual conference to highlight policy and technical advancements in the manufactured housing industry—providing an opportunity to focus exclusively on this often overlooked housing type. Topics of interest include zoning; financing; land tenure security for residents; and standards ensuring that new units are structurally sound and energy efficient for long-term affordability.

I’m HOME plans to host its next conference in Atlanta, GA, in September 2025. Manufactured housing makes up 8.2 percent of the housing stock in Georgia and houses about 8 percent of the state’s population. With rising housing costs, manufactured housing plays an important role in maintaining affordability in Georgia; around two-thirds of Georgia’s manufactured housing is affordable (housing costs below 30 percent of AMI, compared to about 32 percent for all other housing types).

 


 

Session Proposals

We are now accepting proposals for session presentations to be featured at the 2025 conference. We encourage submissions that address key challenges and innovations in manufactured housing, particularly those that focus on finance, zoning, land-use planning, for profit and mission developers issues, disaster mitigation and recovery, community preservation, tenant stability, water management, and energy efficiency. Proposals will be reviewed based on their relevance to the theme of affordable homeownership and the advancement of the manufactured housing industry.

The deadline to submit a proposal is June 12, 2025.
