EFSN Virtual Rebuilding Summit Session 06 Alternative Building Methods

For fire survivors facing immediate housing needs and the long road of rebuilding, alternative building methods offer faster, potentially lower-cost, and flexible solutions. This session explores options for both temporary and permanent housing, providing critical information on compliance and financing. Key Alternative Housing Options: ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) Flexibility: Learn how you can use ADUs for temporary or permanent housing. An Executive Order may allow you to occupy the ADU before your primary home rebuild is complete, providing a quicker path home. Manufactured Homes: These are typically the lowest cost option, built to the federal HUD code (Housing and Urban Development). Modular/Prefab Homes: These are factory-built but adhere to local building codes, offering a wider array of design options and higher quality. Tiny Homes on Wheels: Discover how these are permitted in areas like the City of LA as permanent ADUs, offering mobility and a unique living solution. Showcase & Vendor Resources: Information will be provided on the Housing Showcase (e.g., at Lincoln & Archwood through November) where you can view models. Units generally cost between $40k–$220k plus installation. Take advantage of free site evaluations offered by participating vendors. Look for dual-certified models (wheels removable for permanent installation) for maximum flexibility. Crucial Financing & Compliance Details: Financing Considerations: Your foundation dictates your loan type. A permanent foundation qualifies for traditional mortgages and homeowner's insurance. A temporary installation often requires chattel loans, which typically carry higher interest rates. Special Programs: Hear about opportunities such as Samara Homes offering free ADUs to selected families, providing a potential pathway to a cost-free solution. Why Attend? Time is money, and housing is a necessity. Learn about quick-to-deploy, budget-friendly options that can secure your living situation now, ensure compliance with building codes, and allow you to restart your life faster. Find the right foundation for your recovery.
