Product/Manufacturer Selection and
Negotiation
"Successful community
development starts with an objective, third
party analysis of market and economic conditions
in the context of target residents, and the
developer's management and financial
resources". Edward Hicks, President since
1981

Columnist
"ASK EDDIE" in the Journal of Manufactured & Modular
Housing
He
adds . . . "Don't get so tied up with zoning & land use issues,
engineering & design, contractor selection and project
management that you forget your first
objective is to attract qualified
buyers to your community, and provide a way for them
to finance their purchase."
"Developing/building your new community may
be the easiest part, filling/selling it out may be the most
difficult. Remember, un-like the "field of dreams" if you
build it , they will not necessarily come
. . . unless you have a well thought out plan to tell
them about your creative efforts".
Mr. Hicks is a
Licensed Mortgage Broker, and a Licensed R.E. Broker, co-author of
"Development, Operations & marketing of Manufactured Housing
Communities" John Wylie & Sons, NY, NY, popular columnist "Ask
Eddie" for the Journal of Manufactured Housing, past VP of the
California Mobile Home Dealers Association, and past committee
chairman of the California Associations of Realtors Mobile Home
Committee.
