Can I Afford a Manufactured Home?

May 12, 2026

If you’ve been wondering whether homeownership is still within reach, you’re not alone — and this Saturday, May 16, is the perfect time to explore your options.

DeTray’s Custom Housing invites you to our Open House event at our Puyallup location, where you can tour all of our beautifully furnished model homes, including our newest featured model, the Willow Creek.

Buying a home is a big decision, and we’re here to make the process easier. During the Open House, you’ll have the opportunity to speak directly with our knowledgeable sales consultants and contractor about everything from floor plans and customization options to pricing, financing, and site preparation. No question is too small — we’re here to help you understand what’s possible for your budget and lifestyle.

Manufactured homes offer flexibility that traditional housing often can’t match. Whether you’re searching for:

  • A first home
  • An ADU (additional dwelling unit)
  • A vacation getaway
  • A secondary property for family or rental income

you’ll discover a variety of layouts, styles, and features designed to fit different needs and price points.

With today’s rising housing costs, more buyers are turning to manufactured homes as a smart and affordable path to homeownership. Touring homes in person is one of the best ways to see the quality, craftsmanship, and comfort these homes can offer.

Join us this Saturday in Puyallup to explore your possibilities, enjoy refreshments, and spin the wheel for special deals and giveaways. You may be surprised at how attainable a new manufactured home can be!

We look forward to seeing you there!
