Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: Manufactured Housing Survey. OMB Approval Number: 2528–0029. Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection. Form Number: No forms. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The Manufactured Housing Survey collects data on the characteristics of newly manufactured homes placed for residential use. Key data collected includes sales price and the number of units placed and sold within 4 months of shipment. Other selected housing characteristics collected include size, location, and titling. HUD uses the statistics to respond to a Congressional mandate in the Housing and Community Development Act of 1980, 42 U.S.C. 5424 note, which requires HUD to collect and report manufactured home sales and price information for the nation, census regions, states, and selected metropolitan areas and to monitor whether new manufactured homes are being placed on owned rather than rented lots. HUD also used these data to monitor total housing production and its affordability. Furthermore, the Manufactured Housing Survey serves as the basis for HUD’s mandated indexing of loan limits. Section 2145(b) of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008 requires HUD to develop a method of indexing to annually adjust Title I manufactured home loan limits. This index is based on manufactured housing price data collected by this survey. Section 2145 of the HERA of 2008 also amends the maximum loan limits for manufactured home loans insured under Title I. HUD implemented the revised loan limits, as shown below, for all manufactured home loans for which applications are received on or after March 3, 2009. Old loan limit Loan type Purpose MANUFACTURED HOME IMPROVEMENT LOAN ..... For financing alterations, repairs and improvements upon or in connection with existing manufactured homes. To purchase or refinance a Manufactured Home unit (s). To purchase and develop a lot on which to place a manufactured home unit. To purchase or refinance a manufactured home and lot on which to place the home. MANUFACTURED HOME UNIT(S) ............................. LOT LOAN .................................................................... COMBINATION LOAN FOR LOT AND HOME ............ Method of Collection: The methodology for collecting information on new manufactured homes involves contacting dealers from a monthly sample of new manufactured homes shipped by manufacturers. The units are sampled from lists obtained from the Institute for Building Technology and Safety. Dealers that take shipment of the selected homes are mailed a survey form four months after shipment for recording the status of the manufactured home.
