READY. SET. BUILT! | MODULAR MEANS MORE.™

What We Do: Custom Modular Homes

The Modular Home Builders Association is the only national organization dedicated exclusively to serving modular home builders and manufacturers. We strive to increase awareness of the value of modular construction by consumers, suppliers, builders, and government officials; it advocates public policies that make modular building systems available on a cost-effective basis. The MHBA serves as a forum where members, suppliers, and builders work together for the purpose of fostering the exchange of information and innovation in the modular industry.

In an effort to improve construction productivity and efficiency, the MHBA promotes the advantages of residential modular construction to builders, government agencies and the general public. MHBA also advocates at the state and federal level to ensure a fair and competitive playing field for the industry.
