Pre-manufactured homes that can be built in just 12 weeks are being pitched to be part of the solution to affordability issues in regional Queensland.

The factory-built, transportable homes can be trucked across the state and connected to utilities and will initially house government employees such as police, nurses and teachers.The prototypes are expected to be finished in June and it’s hoped they will free up other housing options as rental inflation bites across the state, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk says.

“By prefabricating it here...with our apprentices and tradies, this is a good win for locals and a good win for the Queensland economy.” “We don’t collect that data at a statewide level. Some local governments will have access to some of that data,” he said.“We never said that granny flats were all of the solution, just that it was one small thing that we could do that would help ease the supply problem.”
