Is Modular the Answer for the Housing Crisis?

Modular builder Prefabulous Pty Ltd based in Wagga Wagga NSW, is well positioned to meet the insatiable demand in regional NSW for social and affordable housing.

Production output in 2024 will increase significantly, construction costs will be lower and one home will be completed in just 28 days as the new factory doors open in 2024.

‘It’s housing that look good and is better for the environment’ according to Gavin King Managing Director, as their 10 star energy efficient prototype, in collaboration with the University of Wollongong, commences construction late 2023.

‘The design and materials are innovative, efficient and recyclable and will flow into our products in 2024’ says Gavin King

Modular housing is a fast efficient solution for the housing crisis in regional NSW. Prefabulous recently completed a hospital worker accommodation complex at Tumut and this was delivered and installed within 6 hours.

Prefabulous supports the NSW Governments budget initiatives for social and affordable housing in regional NSW and in particular, the $10 million allocation toward a Modular Housing Trial for faster quality social housing.

State & local governments for land availability and partnerships with housing providers is just one key aspect, all stakeholders must be invested in this commitment to solve the housing crisis.

Prefabulous have fantastic designs and the construction capacity to meet  this  challenge.
