” IHIP supports the development of modern, innovative, factory-built housing in Colorado. Compared to traditional building practices, modular, manufactured and kit homes may be produced more efficiently, with less waste and at a lower cost while also creating stable, year-round, high-quality jobs.

Fading West Development – Buena Vista, Colorado – Fading West produces modular housing in a controlled manufacturing environment that allows the company to build a two-story home in as little as 18 days, with site work completed at the same time.

We’re thrilled to announce these three awards and are eager to see the next wave of applications coming in, ” said Jack Tiebout, Senior Program Manager at OEDIT.
