the Home Store Construction

When I started selling modular homes in 1986, I was a complete novice. My Ph.D. training was in psychology, with a focus on child psychotherapy and the social development of infants. But we were in the middle of the 1980’s real estate boom, and my wife and I decided to invest in building a new home for resale.

After researching the local real estate market I concluded two things: first, one reason the supply of new housing had not kept pace with demand was a shortage of skilled labor; second, the shortage was causing contractor wages to escalate, which was inflating prices beyond the means of many buyers. In our conversations with friends, we learned that many were encountering the same problems. It was impossible to find a good custom home builder to construct a quality home at an affordable price.

When I learned that factory-built homes could circumvent these problems, I decided to become a representative of a modular manufacturer so we could sell homes to everyone who needed them. When I found that building houses was more enjoyable and less stressful than my psychology work, I became a modular home dealer. Learning from doing, I gradually got up to speed on a very complex subject, and over the years I’ve been able to cultivate my business into a thriving enterprise.
