Manufactured Homes: Highlights of 100 Written Blog Postings

This is the 100th article I have written in 2013 regarding my passion: manufactured homes. You might wonder, how could this be a passion? Well when you, meaning me, has spent almost a half century being involved in an industry that has progressed so dramatically from the “mobile home” or “trailer” in the early years to the modern manufactured home of today, you can’t help but marvel at how the industry has evolved.

In these 100 articles, I have written exclusively about everything manufactured homes. The content is based upon information learned and observed for these many years of involvement in the world of manufactured housing. I don’t pretend to know everything there is to know about manufactured housing, however, what I do know is that a manufactured home is a smart housing choice for many American homeowners and “would be” homeowners. In these blog postings I have attempted to tackle just about every aspect of the manufactured home lifestyle, from a potential homeowner prospective, as well as some unsolicited free advice for sales people and retailers.

If your goal is to eventually realize the American dream of homeownership, but have not explored today’s manufactured home or have dismissed the idea of living in a “mobile home,” I would suggest you review the articles posted on the “blog” section of this web-site.  Maybe your conception of what a manufactured home will be a pleasant surprise.

If you have already come to the realization that a manufactured home is indeed the realization of that American dream, you might be well served to read and copy articles from this website to assure that the process of becoming a manufactured home owner will be pleasant and rewarding. If you read most of the articles you will probably have more understanding and knowledge than many of the salespeople you will be negotiating with at the retail sales center, and will get the home exactly as you want it to be and save a lot of money.

Ok, so most of you do not have the time nor the desire to read all 100 articles.  I have listed below a few articles that may prove to be helpful. You will need to scroll through the articles to find these that I have highlighted with dates posted.
