Mr. Eaton,
We have bought several homes in our lifetime but our retirement home purchase in Florida has been the best thanks to your book. Your book helped us select the right manufacturer and builder. We did a lot of research on the Internet but could not find any ratings or comparisons on factory built homes until we found your website. The rating charts alone are worth the cost of your books.
If you're considering a modular home, manufactured home or a custom system built home this is one resource you definitely should not be without.
Most people have it backwards when shopping for a modular home or manufactured home. Many focus on selecting a builder without any knowledge of the manufacturers. It is important to first learn about the manufacturers and the types of homes they build before choosing a builder.
If you're a builder, developer or investor our book will dramatically speed up your learning curve and save you thousands in costly mistakes. Don't spend months or even years trying to figure out the factory built housing industry. After reading our best selling publication you'll have the upper-hand on you're competitors.

In recent years, more and more homebuyers have become aware of the advantages of owning a Modular Home. With the advancements of modern technology, the industry is overcoming the misconception that factory made homes are all poorly built and don’t measure up to stick-built homes.
Home Buyers are looking for ways to reduce cost and overhead,” states Randall Eaton, President and CEO of J R Consumer Resources, Inc. “Building with modular homes is a win, win for both home buyers and developers.”
One reason why modular homes are growing at a record pace is because of how the manufacturers are working with developers, builders and individual home buyers.

One of the greatest advantages to manufactured homes is that they are constructed entirely within a controlled climate. Construction can continue year round and because the assembly line workers don’t need to be skilled carpenters they can work for much less than what on-site contractors are normally paid. The benefits of this time and cost reduction can be passed on to the home buyer in the form of very significant savings.
