What are some of the best brands of Mobile Homes out there? I've found a 1994 Southridge, but I know nothing about the quality.
Your question is much like asking which is better Ford or Chevy? It really depends on what you are looking for. Different brands of homes are built for different segments of the home buying public. For example are you looking for a home where you will raise a family or a retirement nest?
John Grissim recently finished the first ever consumer ratings guide to each and every manufactured home builder in the country.
The Grissim Ratings Guide to Manufactured Homes provides at-a-glance listings with key information home shoppers need to make an informed decision. All 79 U.S. builders are fully evaluated. More than three hundred brands and series described.
Each manufactured housing builder's listing includes the following:
Company background/history

Principal market niche/target customer
Retail price range before tax (price includes transportation & set-up)
The brands they compete against
Construction rating on a 1-to-10 scale (with 10 being the highest quality)
Brands/series produced
Description of a popular model
What distinguishes brand from its competition
Number of dealerships (company owned and independents)
Availability of in-house financing and in-house insurance
Warranty structure and length
...and more.
This book makes it easy to be an informed and empowered home buyer. You can find The Grissim Ratings Guide to Manufactured Homes in The Manufactured Housing Book Store.
