In a market grappling with soaring construction expenses and a shortage of housing inventory, the Anthem series emerges as a practical solution for rapidly expanding affordable housing options that seamlessly fit into communities, including urban infill projects. As the nation’s inaugural duplex-style manufactured home approved by HUD, and produced at Cavco’s Fleetwood Homes plant in Rocky Mount, Virginia, the Anthem series serves as a catalyst for progress. It not only addresses the urgent need for more housing but also underscores Cavco’s dedication to delivering high-quality, energy-efficient, and affordable housing solutions.
Bill Boor, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cavco, expressed his pride in the team’s achievement, stating, “I am immensely proud of our team for creating our latest affordable housing innovation. This construction breakthrough arrives at a crucial moment for our country, as more families than ever are seeking affordable housing options. These homes offer a truly unique solution for both buyers and builders.”
Prospective homeowners, particularly first-time buyers, will discover that the Anthem series provides a more affordable path to homeownership. Moreover, the option to live in one unit while renting out the other offers forward-thinking homeowners a practical and effective way to offset mortgage payments and reduce financial strain.
Likewise, for real estate investors, housing developers, and community managers, Cavco’s Anthem series presents an unparalleled opportunity. The duplex-style design is especially appealing, thanks to its potential for increased housing density and diversity. With multiple floorplans offering 2- and 3-bedroom options, including duplex and quadplex layouts, property owners and communities can diversify their portfolios and meet the growing demand for affordable housing. The versatility of the Anthem series allows everyone involved to take a step closer to solving the affordable housing crisis while enjoying the benefits of this innovative housing solution.
