At‑cost manufactured homes for low‑income buyers

Beginning July 27, 2025, some groups can sell manufactured homes at cost. They do not need a vehicle dealer license for these sales. Eligible sellers include community land trusts, resident co‑ops, local governments, housing authorities, neighborhood nonprofits, federally recognized tribes in Washington, and regional or statewide nonprofit housing groups. Sales must be to low‑income households. Each seller is limited to 12 at‑cost sales in any 12‑month period. This reduces red tape and can help keep prices down for qualifying buyers.
