Champion® Homes Presents Visionary Solutions to America’s Affordable Housing Shortage at HUD Innovative Housing Showcase

TROY, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Champion Homes, Inc. (NYSE: SKY) (“Champion Homes”) today highlighted its trailblazing, offsite-built solutions to the nation’s affordable housing shortage at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Innovative Housing Showcase in Washington, D.C.

On the National Mall, Champion Homes unveiled the New Horizon and the New Frontier, attainable, offsite-built homes that highlight the company’s commitment to building the affordable homes Americans need now. The homes are presented as part of Manufactured Housing Institute’s (MHI) Homes on the Hill, where policymakers and housing industry professionals are invited to tour the homes on September 22-24, 2026.

“America has a shortage of millions of homes, and Champion Homes is meeting the moment by building homes that Americans can afford,” said Champion Homes President and CEO Tim Larson. “We need a new path to the American Dream of homeownership. Champion is rising to the occasion with attainable, offsite-built homes that meet buyers’ needs.”

The New Horizon by Champion Homes is America’s urban infill solution, allowing communities to use vacant lots in urban areas to expand opportunities for affordable homeownership. It has a two-story layout and a small building footprint designed for higher density housing. This three-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom, 1,700-square-foot model is Champion’s innovative, two-story manufactured home built to the HUD Code. It features a removed second-floor chassis and is designed for vertical construction in narrow urban infill lots. As land prices are increasingly becoming a barrier to homeownership, the New Horizon’s efficient design helps lower costs for builders, buyers and renters, offering a unique solution for attainable housing.

The New Frontier by Champion Homes delivers the curb appeal homeowners want and the affordability they need. Superior design meets attainable homeownership with this three-bedroom, two-bathroom, 1,750-square-foot manufactured home. From the inside out, the New Frontier showcases the in-demand features homeowners are looking for, including a primary suite and an open concept floorplan. Offered at an attainable price, the New Frontier can help reduce monthly housing expenses for individuals and families.

Designed with today’s homebuyers in mind, the New Horizon and the New Frontier are examples of Champion Homes’s broad capabilities to build the affordable homes Americans need. Champion has extensive design and production capacity with 46 manufacturing facilities and a wide range of floorplans tailored to regional design preferences and homebuyers’ needs. Offsite-built homes by Champion can be built at significantly lower costs than comparable site-built homes — even including the cost of delivery and installation on the property.

“Champion Homes offers policymakers, builders and homebuyers a path to affordable homeownership through offsite construction,” said Larson. “The time is now to build affordable homes, and Champion Homes is leading the way.”
