    I just went to look at a 2024 Clayton Home already on the land last weekend in Florida. I live in an apartment right now and looking to get out of this horrible rental trap. The sales person said that if I wanted to break my lease to purchase the home that they would pay my Early Terminate Fee. I said no, I have just started looking and I'm not ready to buy the first home I look at. I get anothr email today and the sales person says he talked to his boss and his Boss wanted my Landlords information so he could make her an offer to break my lease! The apartment I live in the manager will not let anyone break the lease, you can break it but they hold you to the full term of the lease if I move out, that is in my lease agreement. Again, I told him no I cannot put myself in that kind of position. After seeing these videos and other videos, I will definately not be purchasing a manufactured home!! Thank you for this very informative video!

    We're living a nightmare for 3 years. House was a mess. Plumbing not connected. Electrical problems. Drywall wrong. Floors had screws poking thru. It's still a mess. Clayton stopped helping before first year was up. It took them 2 months to set up, 6 more months to get anyone out. They had to send out 3 different people. But Plumbing was something we had to fix. Sewerage in crawlspace in heater pipes on the ground and no even hooked up right. Mold is terrible.

Many problems of things never corrected after we sent in a list of repairs that needed to be done. Months later we found out we had been over charged almost $20 k. Please take it from people that have been scammed. NEVER EVER buy from Clayton Homes!

    We bought a Clayton home in 2018, it was sold to us as new but was actually used. They said it was certified level, but it wasn't. They never gave us a walk through, and only gave us a 2-year warranty, our neighbor got a 20-year warranty on their house. We had a bunch of repairs on schedule to be done then covid happened and they refused to send someone out to do the repairs, after covid they told us they weren't going to fix anything because the warranty was expired even though it was already on schedule before covid happened. The A/C has issues, the roof needs to be fixed, and the house needs to be leveled, they told us the house would come with Hardie skirting but actually came with plastic that wasn't even installed correctly. The house is poorly insulated, we have hot spots all over the walls and ceilings, and they didn't bother to insulate above the sliding glass door. I had to pay an electrician to replace the faulty main breaker that nearly burned our house down.

    I have a cavalier home, owned by Clayton. Building in Virginia and there are very few prefab/ modular builders that will go up against the mighty Clayton. Tip for the day: don't use Clayton as youR GC. I could NOT be happier with my cavalier and that's only because of the general contractor. Some dealers are ok. Most are sub-par and use the cheapest contractors to save money. We visited two Clayton dealers, one was ok but high$, the other was straight up rude and acted like they didn't even want our business. My GC is in Rustburg VA. He says, you didn't but a home from Clayton, you bought a home from (and inserted his company name.) THAT is the kind of person you want to deal with.

    My retired dad bought a home from clayton ,where the two halves were seamed together immediately settled and cracked the inside of the ceiling finish and was a visible line under the flooring,he also had problems with his windows and also the front and back doors not closing and sealing from wind properly. Overall quality of materials used inside was about as cheap as could get. Plumbing shoddily installed,weird smell in guest bathroom from time of installation, his hvac ran constantly and had to be serviced twice in the first five years,the home is ten years old right now. Bathroom fixtures leaking since day 1, just a crappy home and experience all the way around. Also,the skirting used to go around the outside is so cheap and flimsy that if your weedester string even grazes it it slices right through it like it was a sheet of paper. Do NOT purchase anything from clayton homes. They are the worst.

    FYI many years ago I bought a brand new Oakwood Home. Had a lot of issues during the warranty period. I had to file a complaint with the State of Texas to get them to fix the issues. During my conversation with the State Inspector he told me it wasn't just my home or its brand. The short version is they are all cheap built piles of crap and they get away with it because the mobile home industry has a very powerful lobbying machine in most of the state capitols. They have special laws and regulations written by those lobbies and passed by state officials who are more or less bribed by that lobby. These things are built to appeal to the most vulnerable and least educated homebuyers ....and disguised as "affordable houseing" I'll never buy another one of any brand after my discussion with that inspector...what I researched and learned on my own and my 18 years of ownership. People would be better off in the long run living in an apartment or their parents basement until they can save enough $$$ to buy a real home. Those things are basically oversize RVs not built to be lived in for over a decade. Cheaply built peices of Bull manure.

    The problem with manufactured homes is you close on the purchase before the house is built and delivered. The dealership gets paid once you sign the paperwork, not after the you get the home. They have no incentive to get things right and the buyer has no leverage to get things fixed.

I’d definitely view before putting in my property. I’m curious if any of the Clayton homes issues are in the Washington state/Oregon area. So many issues but all seem to be south of us. I’d definitely love feedback before buying, especially since we’re paying all cash up front.

    My question is why did you except the house. You should never have accepted the home....Contact state attorney General and file a complaint.. I am a real estate broker.. The State Attorney General should look into it. I am not sure now that you accepted it.. But it can't hurt..You can't say you were forced when you accepted it..

      He should have contacted FHA immediately. They could have recinded the order and canceled the payment.. Contact a lawyer! Many will accept a case on a contingency basis. You pay only if you win. This case would be a slam dunk.

    So is this buying directly from Clayton homes or like a dealer that sells Clayton homes and it’s built in a factory ? I’m looking at buying the legacy 572 and just found out it’s a Clayton home and I’m so upset because I really love this home and I’m hoping the dealer I’m working with and factory it’s being built will not allow it to be built poorly.

    “TRAILER TRASH”, refers to WARREN BUFFET today. Him and his “gold hogs”. Trailers are not built well, but “after that”, their “dragged all over the country on rough roads”, before being “very crudely dragged onto a persons property, and abandoned”. But you still “cant go inside”. When you hire a lawyer AND WIN, the losers pay your lawyer. DKS! (Home Builder, 6 months, move in, “enjoy”.)

    Have you tried contacting any class action law firms? It's pretty easy to figure out how many peopled have been scammed by reading the reviews. If you find a lawyer to take it on it won't cost anybody anything. All the people who bought the homes just agree to use that certain lawyer and the money they win from the law suit will be split between the lawyer (to pay his fee plus court costs, etc and all the people who were scammed. Please try to contact some of those type lawyers. There are class action lawsuits going on for all kinds of products. This is not an unusual type of law suit. God Bless you and your family.

    The success of any home-to-land deal is heavily dependent on the general contractor selected. The GC needs to be carefully screened by you, the buyer.. Do your homework! If the home dealer makes it difficult to check out his contractors, walk away.

      They are supposed to be 100 feet from each other unless you have just a holding tank (which is only allowed if you are replacing a previous septic system and cannot install a new drain field) you are required to have the well and holding tank 50 feet from each other at least that's the case in my area.

    First mistake is buying a crappy mobile home. They're built by unskilled people off the street. No journeyman plumbers or electricians. Cheapest materials possible. Second class housing and absolute tinder boxes if there's a fire. I used to work in the industry and I will tell you that I would live on the street before I'd ever live in a mobile home.

      I was going to buy a Clayton home for -$140,000. ... But after watching this very sad and very informative post, I've decided to forget about anything "Manufactured " from anybody, anywhere. We live in the internet video age... Companies can't just screw people over and get by with it like the days of yesteryear. The fact that I am writing the this commentary in and of itself proves that people ARE doing their research before buying. Before the age of RUclips and its comment section, such guidance would have been next to impossible to find... NOT ANYMORE ! ! !

I know nothing about the foundation and what goes all into like this guy seems to know so I would fall victim to their scam. But another part of me just feels like I can't afford a stick built home. All homes in my area are starting at 300k and up and getting a 30 yr mortgage you would have paid almost double for the home with these current rates. I'm just feeling defeated

    You have all the leverage before you sign the final papers/loan papers. Whether you purchase a stick built house, modular or mobile home, once you sign you are placed on the back burner. Refuse to go to closing until everything is satisfactory. I realize you were jammed up with your other home being vandalized but you can see how you are treated once you move in.

    Over 20 yrs ago I purchased a supposedly "best" mobile home, a Fleetwood. It's worse than a piece of garbage. Nothing is square and everything is cheaply made. At the time with my job I could not afford a real home and interest rates were high so I had to live somewhere. Now it's still "home" and it's paid for and I am retired so I can leisurely watch everything deteriorate. The only good thing is back then they were a lot less expensive than now.

      I also bought a Fleetwood in 2007 and found a lot of things wrong with doors and windows. Things were not completely square or level but I also paid mine off and I re-gutted it put about 30,000 into it and now everything is quality and done right it’s better than buying a new $300 manufactured home when I could just put that 30 I put into it and get the same result saved a lot of money.

    Geeez. This man's experience just sounds terrible. I have a new Clayton Home, built in May 2024. Mine is also in Texas, but much farther east than this man's home in Decatur, Texas. My dealer is in Sulphur Springs. My house was set up in the Mount Vernon area.
    I was told by several people not to go with any other builder other than Clayton. I am glad I did go with Clayton because my home and the property it sits on is perfect and built really solid. I am very pleased. I got a great deal. The home is rock solid and has many upgrades. I have already been through some really awful thunderstorms up here in the deep woods with very high wind. This Clayton home stays solid and quiet. I can not even hear rain hitting the roof.
    The most incredible thing is the enormous savings I am enjoying with the excellent insulation in the house. During the month of August, with average 102-degree days, my electric bill was only $68.00! It has steadily gone down each month to as low as $38.00 for November. My house is 1,000 sqft. 2 bed/2 bath, with a detached garage. I have recommended Clayton to several friends. The folks at my dealer have been very professional and are always quick to help with any issue, which have been very minor indoor trim fixes.
