Hancock Lumber plans to acquire Tiny Homes of Maine, an Aroostook County-based manufacturer of tiny homes on wheels, according to a signed letter of intent that reveals an anticipated closing at the end of October. According to Hancock, acquiring Tiny Homes of Maine will be a natural extension of the company’s manufacturing capabilities, which includes Mainely Trusses roof and floor component manufacturing, wall panel production and eastern white pine sawmills. An emerging segment of the housing market, tiny homes and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) help accelerate the building cycle and provide more affordable and flexible housing options, per Hancock. …The deal is slated to close at the end of October.
