“Change We Can Believe In” has been a popular saying lately. In fact those five words helped propel an unknown nominee into the national spotlight. Regardless of your politics, change is something we can all relate to since the manufactured housing industry overall has had to make some significant changes in the past decade. Change can be difficult, painful and often unwelcome. Some, but not all, change is good, and some is done only out of necessity. For those of you that have survived, the question is do you want to change BACK to what got us here in the first place, or do you ultimately want to change FORWARD to put your business on a path to sustainable growth?

Utah families facing foreclosure, seeking affordable rental housing, or hoping to buy their first home will have a greater opportunity to find housing, or keep the homes they have, because of $142,184 in housing counseling grants announced by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. “Now, more than ever, it is crucial that Americans understand how to manage their money, navigate the home buying process, and secure their financial future.” said Donovan. “This critical funding will help counseling organizations continue to assist families in making more informed choices before they buy a home and counsel families facing foreclosure.”
