USATODAY.com - Manufactured homes and owners gain respect: "Manufactured homes — and owners — gain respect
By Sue Kirchhoff, USA TODAY
BARRINGTON, N.H. — After 15 long years, Richard Doherty makes the final mortgage payment on his cheerfully cluttered manufactured home — don't call it a trailer — this month. But ownership may not bring longed-for security.

Manufactured Housing Institute

Doherty and 73 other families who rent lots in the Barrington Estates manufactured home community, with its tidy gardens and wooded avenues, received notice this spring that the owner plans to sell.
