Property Improvement and Manufactured Housing Loan Modernization Act of 2026

This bill increases FHA loan limits for manufactured home purchases, home improvements, and accessory dwelling units under the National Housing Act. It raises the maximum loan amount for single-section manufactured home purchases to $106,405 and multi-section homes to $195,322, while setting a $75,000 cap for home improvements. The bill also requires annual adjustments to these limits based on HUD's methodology and mandates a HUD study comparing off-site construction (including manufactured/modular homes) to site-built housing on cost, quality, maintenance, and applications like accessory dwelling units. It directly affects borrowers seeking FHA financing for these housing types.
