Bill > HR7792

This bill, the Property Improvement and Manufactured Housing Loan Modernization Act of 2026, aims to update the National Housing Act by increasing loan limits and clarifying the use of property improvement loans. Specifically, it allows these loans to be used for the construction of accessory dwelling units (ADUs), which are secondary housing units on a single-family property, and significantly raises the maximum loan amounts for various types of manufactured homes and related land purchases. The bill also mandates that the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) annually adjust these loan limits based on appropriate data and requires HUD to conduct a study on the cost-effectiveness of off-site construction housing, including manufactured and modular homes, to explore their potential for broader housing applications.
