The 2007 Edition of The Grissim
Ratings Guide to Manufactured Homes has just been published, containing
authoritative, essential up-to-date information on all 83 builders of
manufactured homes, including at-a-glance listings providing key information to
help home shoppers make an informed buying decision.
When consumer advocate John Grissim
published this groundbreaking guide in early 2006, the book quickly became a
best seller that has the whole industry talking—and for good reason. No one, not
even Consumer Reports, has ever attempted to describe and rate every
builder of manufactured homes in the U.S. For the first time, an independent
third party observer has lined up all the builders and rated their products,
giving prospective home buyers
factual information and no-nonsense insights that have made Grissim a respected
authority and trusted consumer voice.
The Grissim
Ratings Guide
has been described as “one of the most controversial books this industry has
ever seen.” Not surprising, quite a few builders were not happy with their
rating. But as Grissim explaind, “Don’t shoot the messenger—I just held up the
mirror.” Here are some of the rave reviews the book has garnered:
"An invaluable
reference...unquestionably the most detailed and comprehensive guide to
manufactured home builders available to potential home buyers."
Bill White, author, Guide to Mobile
Homes, National Consumer Law Center Press
"The essential resource...pulls no
punches...a wealth of invaluable information...strongly recommended. Better yet:
get both Grissim’s guides."
Len Bonifield, The Saint
Petersburg Times
“For the first time a professional
writer and researcher has undertaken the huge task of gathering massive amounts
of data...I was stunned at the depth and accuracy of this book.
Steve Hullibarger, author,
