3D printed and factory-built homes could help tackle housing crisis

Builders are utilizing innovative methods such as 3D printing and factory assembly to address the housing shortage in the U.S. These new techniques aim to reduce costs and increase the speed of home construction, with some homes taking just five to seven days to build. Fading West, a company in Colorado, has produced over 500 homes in three years using factory assembly, partnering with organizations to provide affordable housing. While 3D printing technology shows promise, it is still in the early stages of development.
