Manufactured housing/rec. vehicle
Article Abstract:
The prefabricated houses industry has grown extremely well, posting a 20% increase in the 1992-94 period and a 12% increase in 1995, despite strict Department of Housing and Urban Development standards and should continue with a 7%-9% increase throughout 1996 and a 5% increase in 1995. The recreational vehicle industry reported soft growth in 1995 after three years of rapid increases due to bad weather and inventory surpluses. Experts expect that recreation vehicle sales will not show marked improvement until the last qtr 1996. Investors should select individual companies rather than investing in either industry.

Manufactured housing/rec. vehicle
Article Abstract:
Improved design and quality, along with tougher building codes, are making manufactured houses more popular with the public. Demographics, lack of affordable housing, and price have also stimulated demand. The recreational vehicle (RV) industry, however, saw inventory outpace demand in 1995, though prospects through 1997 and beyond are good. Investors should seek the better manufactured housing stocks, and long-term RV stocks, for commitments.
