Exploring the Realities of Modular Construction in Affordable Housing

In a recent Q&A with Multi-Housing News, David Egan, Senior Vice President of Real Estate Development and Construction, shared insights on the opportunities and challenges associated with modular construction in affordable housing development.

Drawing from experience with the Greenfield Commons I and Distel Circle developments in California, David discusses how modular construction can help assess subcontractor availability, construction timelines, and cost pressures in certain markets – while also emphasizing that the approach is not a one-size-fits-all solution.

The conversation also highlights the importance of early coordination, strong public-private partnerships, and thoughtful project design when pursuing innovative construction strategies. As housing challenges continue to evolve, EAH Housing remains focused on identifying practical, scalable approaches that support the delivery of high-quality affordable communities.
