Need advice for new MH purchase in central Oregon

[DJ]

Great forums.
I have a flat1.5 acre lot with septic and well already installed in LaPine Or. I have read Randall Eatons books and have read all the forums here. My problem is that I currently live in Southern California and am selling my house here and want to buy a MH for my Oregon land so I can move and live there.
I have to be here in Ca to show the house and only had four days to find a good MH dealer. It took two days travel time to get there and back so I really had two days. I went to PH homes and Fuqua homes. There was NO SALESMAN at either place!
I did get to look at the site models and grabbed all the broshures possible. I am looking for a 2000 to 2200 sq ft home. My wife liked the PM model 5v452e9 which is 2,082 sq ft.
After I got home to Ca I called the same PM store and asked to talk to a salesman, the girl on the phone said he was busy and would call me back if I would give her my name and number. I told her I was very serious in getting info on this model and alredy had land to put it on. Of course I didnt get a call back.

I also emailed the Fuqua store about a model that I liked with no reply after three days.

Does anyone in the Central Or area know of a quality MH dealer or manufact sales store who cares about selling to a serious buyer with CASH?

So far I'm still at square one with very little faith concerning dealing with professionals there. I'm afraid this is going to be a big hassle.

Ouch...the call back is standard policy at all PH stores..it is just a way to keep the competition from calling and getting free info....BUT..they are supposed to call back..not just take your number...

Give them 1 more chance..this time ask for the General Manager and/or sales manager..tell the person who answers you will not be available for a call back..and that you are ready to buy..

Another possible route to take..Is that Randy Eaton himself lives in the area that you are looking in...he offers a buyers consultation service that might be useful for you since you are so far away..I am sure his web site is listed in the book..

Thanks for the advice.
It looks like Randy lives in Washington and if I continue to get the run around I will sign up for his service.
Do you know of any other quality MH companies that service that area? I'm looking to spend no more than $90,000 including a sure safe fountation with masonary block skirt.

Hi Jennifer and thanks for the offer.
A friend of mine called me this afternoon and gave me the number of a PH dealer in Redmond Or. which less than 50 miles from my lot site. The sales lady there was very helpful over the phone. I wish I knew of this location when I was in Or. three days ago since I went to the other dealer which was over three hours away from my lot. I should of checked it out on the internet. I will save your post if they give me the run around.

Cheers.
