Spring Forward

Mar 14, 2018

“Spring Forward”. Yes, the clock moved forward on February 11 at 2:00AM PST, one hour, and we all lost one hour of sleep. So if you feel a little tired on Sunday, it is in part that we are saving energy by having more daylight to use and thereby using less light and heat at home. Here at DeTray’s, we have moved our Open Hours to 9:00 am to 6:00 pm M-S, and Noon to 5:00 pm on Sundays, providing more daylight viewing hours for our lot model homes.

“Springing into Action”. Now is a time when many customers come into DeTray’s Model Home Center to look, plan and order their homes. Orders placed in Spring with our factories often get designed, built and delivered during Summer and Fall seasons, so don’t wait, Spring into Action Today!

“Spring Forward and Save”. Land is being bought and developed at a pace that is incredibly fast, forcing prices to climb. Add to that lumber prices, steel prices, and other items used in home production expected to climb. What can you do now to save money? When you finalize your purchase of a custom home, future building cost increases will not be included in your home cost. So, when you order your home with DeTray’s Custom Housing, please inquire with our associates on how to secure your home purchase price.

“Spring on Down”. Visit us at the Puyallup RV Show May 3rd – 6th at the fairgrounds in Puyallup. DeTray’s Custom Housing once again will help sponsor Manufactured Housing Day on May 3rd. For more information on the many discounts available, go to puyalluprvshow.com.

We hope you will jump like a rabbit into Spring like we are, see you at the show!
