Built offsite.
Shipped.
Stacked into cash flow.

StackHaven is the modular system: HUD-code steel units manufactured offsite, delivered by truck or container, and stacked 4–6 stories on motels, RV parks, and greenfield sites. Fast. Affordable. Designed to rent.

How a StackHaven is born

Not stick-built. Not a shipping-container gimmick. A factory unit that becomes a vertical neighborhood.

01

Manufacture offsite

Finished 350–650 SF modules from ISS-sourced CFS — kitchenette, bath, loft, pull-out bed. Planning spec.

02

Ship the box

Road-legal / containerized. HUD-code mobility. No 18-month jobsite.

03

Stack the site

Steel connectors lock 4–6 stories on motels, RV pads, or vacant lots. Density doubles overnight.

04

Rent or syndicate

Workforce rents, AI check-in, or sell units to investors. Cash starts when the crane leaves.

Finished StackHaven module interior

The module

One box. Every market.

Fully finished living: pull-out bed, kitchenette + appliances, loft, full bath. 350–650 SF. HUD-code for financing and mobility. Connectors engineered for vertical stacks.

  • 350–650 SF finished
  • HUD-code compliant
  • 4–6 story stacks
  • 50–65% below conventional $/SF (manufacturing cost — not the ISS 30–40% envelope claim)

Three ways it prints revenue

Same factory. Three site types. One Southwest corridor.

RV park integration

Vertical-stack existing pads. Coachlight: 36 spaces → 72 premium units. Land + module rent or investor sale.

Motel conversions

Imperial Sky model: 30 tired rooms → 60 modern apartments on the same footprint. AI ops. Thin staffing.

Greenfield stack sites

Vacant lots via executory contract. 50–100 unit towers at Santa Teresa, El Paso, Las Cruces logistics hubs.

Acquisition playbook

Buy the land cheap to operate. Pay the seller full price to exit.

Target: distressed motels, hotels, RV parks — $800K–$1.5M, 25–30+ units. Subject-to + executory contracts. Control the asset. Stack it. NOI funds the next deal.

Subject-to

Assume payments without bank assumption. 6–9% IO seller carry, 10-year balloon.

Executory contracts

120-month land contracts. ~$50K down on $1M+ assets. Control now, title later.

Stack-site conversion

Don’t run the motel. Use it as a pad. 30 rooms become 60 stacked units.

Why the math wins

Factory cost $25–35K vs $200+/SF conventional. Target rents $1,100–$1,300 all-in. AI check-in. No deposit theater. Retired-couple digital oversight. Underwrite the rest under NDA.

Planned ISS Commercial Park / Brickland manufacturing site — not an operating factoryStacked StackHaven community at dusk

Made with ISS

115 Brickland Rd. · planned manufacturing site / retrofit target

ISS Commercial Park at Brickland is a planned manufacturing site and retrofit target — not an operating ISS factory today. Vertical integration is the cost path after demand.

  1. 01

    Pilot

    10 prototype units. OBBB manufacturing / R&D / apprentice programs.

  2. 02

    Scale

    2–4 units / week. AI-optimized assembly. 25–30% supplier agglomeration savings.

  3. 03

    Volume

    50 units live → 200 / year and $10M+ NOI path by Year 2.

ISS — Innovative Steel Structures

Financial engineering

Depreciation and structure — not a pitch-deck fantasy.

Manufacturing assets may qualify for 100% bonus depreciation (IRC §168(k) / OBBB). Executory deals can use installment treatment (§453). This is not tax advice. Model it with counsel under NDA.
