tip of the month
update photos
take a moment to look around you. the grass is finally green and everything is in full bloom, spring has arrived!
now look at the photos of your homes. is the beauty of spring reflected in these photos? we cannot emphasize enough the importance of taking time to make the pictures of your homes as attractive as possible. the best way to inform potential buyers on our site is through photos. photos that have snow or junk in the yard are not as appealing to look at. remember, you can put up to 6 photos on your site! make sure you take advantage of this feature by posting multiple angles, interiors, and floor plans. if you are not able to get photos right away just post a model picture found through the manufacturer.
q&a
we will be featuring selected questions from users in each newsletter. please send any questions to: editor@manufacturedhomestoday.com.
q: is there a way to find out how long i have had each home listing up?
a: login to client access and click on "update published listings". this page lists the date and time that each home listing was created, and the number of days that it has been up.
if you ever have a problem that needs immediate attention, please do not hesitate to e-mail us, or call us at (810) 632-0600. no question is too small; we want to be aware of any quirks as soon as possible and keep the site running smoothly.

what is a d-sticker home?
answer: a d-sticker home is designed to meet the wind requirements of asce 7-88 exposure d criteria. asce 7 is a reference standard contained in the hud code. it is specifically for homes to be sited within 1,500 feet of a coastline in hurricane wind prone areas of the country.
