Most appraisers never get to see how a manufactured home is built before they are asked to appraise one.

Friday, 02 Oct, at the 2026 NCPAC Annual Conference gives you that opportunity.

In the morning, attendees will travel to Champion Homes in Lillington for a 4-hour NCAB-approved manufacturing plant tour and see firsthand how manufactured homes move through the construction process.

Then we take that experience back to the classroom.

The afternoon session, Manufactured Home Construction Methods and Details, connects what you saw on the factory floor with the construction methods, identification and property characteristics appraisers encounter in real-world assignments.

SEE IT BUILT IN THE MORNING.
APPLY IT TO APPRAISAL PRACTICE IN THE AFTERNOON.
