Kentucky Manufactured Housing Institute
The Kentucky Manufactured Housing Institute (KMHI) is the trade association representing the factory-built housing industry in Kentucky, describing itself as the voice of that industry in the Commonwealth. Its members design, build, install, sell and finance factory-built homes, and include manufacturers, retailers, installers, community operators and lenders.
The association's stated role with members is training, continuing education and information, so that the people in those roles have access to current industry practice. The site carries certification requirements, education events, job postings, manufacturer listings and scholarship opportunities, and a members-only login.
For buyers and for owners looking for a vendor, the public side runs a Find a Professional member directory and a Manufactured Housing Q&A explaining what the association does. News is split into government news, manufacturing news and economic reports, and the association republishes the national MHI monthly economic report on HUD Code shipments. Events include a conference, a home show, education events and member events.
The association keeps a record of its own leadership going back to 1965 through its past chairpersons list and a hall of fame. Membership benefits, an application and testimonials are on the site; the office is at 2170 US 127 South, Frankfort, KY, on (502) 223-0490.
