I just saw this listing come on the market https://images.bizbuysell.com/shared/listings/195/###-###-#### /3c070447-5b09-4e3d-b840-60e7006eacdf.pdf and believe it's here in New England. I like the nature of the business but do not have a formal background in this space so was curious if anyone has experience with this space, either from an operational or acquisition point of view. Thanks.

I've been tangentially involved with a couple of these businesses internationally. The sales pitch is always the same - on paper SIPs are a fantastic technology and the potential market is huge. In practice, getting people in the construction industry to actually use them proves extremely difficult. Construction as an industry is very conservative, both the construction companies themselves as well as the customers. Even if SIPs are great on paper and you can convince companies to use them in their design, people often don't want to live in "prefabricated" homes.
