FEMA is taking applications at St. Agnus Catholic Church for trailers at Heavenly Acres, they said even if you applied before and have been denied come back and apply again. People are moving into them now. If you had to move because of the tornado, your home was damaged, or if you have no place to live go to St. Agnus and apply.

Who owns Heavenly Acres?

We rode thru there yesterday. They are doing a great job setting up the trailers with steps, underskirting, etc. It looks much better than I expected. :thumb:

An awesome lady named Tracy Schmidt and her husband (cant remember his name)...Super folks from down in Lousiana...He has a company called American Eagle...does heat/air work....super folks that wanna see an improvement round there... :thumb:

Nascarpit.....not to be critical...but WHAT did you expect?? Just curious....since i am in the manufactured home business i like to hear what people expect.......i mean did you think it was gunna be a bunch of 1960's "TRAILERS" pulled in there and halfway set up and barn tin for underpinning or what?

I am not lashing out, just curious, cuz these kinda comments just make me wonder.....When was the last time YOU checked out the Newer more modern manufactured homes??? :thumb:

honestly plowboy, as soon as I heard FEMA trailers, I got a picture of a little white trailer, like most of the ones they had for katrina. None of them were skirted and what not.

You must be in mobile home sales :newlmao:

Duhhhh.........i stated that in my post.....thats why i ask you what i did.... :laughing:

I actually wasn't referring to the trailers, I was talking about the way they are being set up was better than I expected. :)

thats kinda what i figured cuz the average person that hasnt stepped foot in a manufactured home since the 60's or 70's think that they still are gunna look like what great great grandma lived in when she was a kid......... :laughing: :laughing:

There are some beautiful mobile homes out there now and huge ones too!!! Really is!!! :thumb:

(OK plowboy heres you a free plug....everyone go buy a mobile home from plowboy!) :yip:

Your too kind Nascar!!!! :thumb:

My guess is that those bigger mobile homes are not from FEMA, but are homes recently purchased by individuals who lost their homes in the tornado.
The FEMA mobile homes I saw convoying along the highway into Polk County were smaller, simpler type homes.....maybe 10 feet wide, at best, about 56 feet long and very few windows.
I also saw one of those FEMA homes being set up out in the county on someone's property.

Fema has some 14x60's as well as 16x80's ....none of them are real fancy, just basic plain homes.....built as less expensive as possible and still provide a good quality home... :thumb:

Thanks for the education, plowboy. :thumb:

I meant that there are some beautiful and huge mobile homes on the market now..........not the FEMA trailers. Plowboy knew what I meant. :whistle:
