BOXABL receives regulatory approval to sell modular homes in Texas
BOXABL Inc. announced it received regulatory approval to sell and deploy its Casita Studio modular housing units across Texas. The Las Vegas-based company manufactures factory-built modular housing solutions.
The approval allows BOXABL to enter the Texas market as the state implements new housing legislation. Recent laws including HB 1779 and SB 673 limit local restrictions on accessory dwelling units by prohibiting municipalities from imposing restrictive lot sizes or owner-occupancy requirements.
"Texas represents the single most significant growth opportunity for BOXABL to date," said Galiano Tiramani, co-CEO of BOXABL. "With the state's population exploding and new laws making it easier than ever for homeowners to add a Casita to their backyard, we are ready to scale our mission of affordable, mass-produced housing in the heart of the Lone Star State."
According to the company, Texas, California and Washington account for more than 62% of all national accessory dwelling unit permits. Texas is experiencing a 34% year-over-year increase in construction approvals in urban areas including Austin and Dallas.
The Texas approval comes as BOXABL moves toward its anticipated merger with FG Merger II Corp (NASDAQ: FGMC). The company expects to complete its public listing in June 2026.
BOXABL's Casita is a 361-square-foot studio unit that includes a kitchen, bathroom and utilities. The unit unfolds on-site and is manufactured at BOXABL facilities. The company also produces the Baby Box, a 120-square-foot unit built to recreational vehicle code.
