    We had an exceptional experience working with Michael Hendrix as we bought our manufactured home in Plaza Del Rey park.

    A little bit about us: We're in our 30s, first time home buyers, and completely new to the manufactured home industry.

    Michael contacted us on Dec 23, 2019 and set up an appointment quickly for the next day. He showed us the house on Christmas Eve, along with other houses. Once he realized our interest lay in one of the houses, he offered to show it to us again to help us make up our minds. He answered all our questions, checked up and followed up on others for which he did not have details, and gave us all the time we needed for our decision making process.

    After the house-buying process was initiated, Michael gave us a checklist of every step, and read through each contract with us, clause by clause. He helped answer our many questions about policies, as well as technical details about manufactured homes that we did not know. His long experience living in a manufactured home has been helpful for us to make a decision. When we have needed his help, he has been available on a short notice.

    We have met with many realtors while we were seeing homes, and none have been as helpful as Michael, while still giving us our space. We did not feel rushed, neither did we feel any reluctance on his part to answer any of our questions, which put us at ease. We needed that extra viewing of the house to make up our minds, and his patience was essential for that. That he met us on Christmas Eve to show us the house was amazing to us, and it also helped us close the offer during the holidays. We know there were others interested in the house (we met other buyers while we were looking and they mentioned they were interested in the house), but working so quickly with Michael helped us get a leg up.

    Even towards the end, Michael helped us smooth the process of closing on time. He was always available for any queries and helped us prepare the plan for the final couple of days to ensure there were no delays. He gave guidance on items like transfer of funds to escrow and following up on details listed in the inspection reports. He even handled all the paperwork with escrow without us having to go the their office ourselves.
    This helped us manage our anxiety and have a precise plan down to the time of the day, especially towards the end.

    We would definitely recommend him and advantage homes for buying a manufactured home.

    I can't say enough great things about my experience with Carl Cobb and his staff at Advantage Homes here in Vista, CA. I sold my home in 2 days and then the search began for my new dwelling. I went to an open house, met with Carl the next day and we were able to work out the details of my purchase within a few hours. 6 weeks later I was moving into my brand new manufactured home and I couldn't be happier! From beginning to end things went so smoothly, I closed escrow in the morning on my former home and that same afternoon I closed escrow on my "new" home. Thank you Carl and Advantage Homes for making what could have been an absolute nightmare it truly was a "dream come true" HUGS.

    An excellent real estate experience delivered by an exceptional individual. Michael Hendrix worked tirelessly to make sure the paperwork was done and done properly. No glitches and he was available when we needed to talk. I found Michael to be a caring individual and easy to work with. His positive outlook on life was contagious and added to the whole experience- it was the meringue on the lemon meringue pie!

    My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Ernest Costa for our first home purchase! It turned out to be a 6 month process but it was all worth it in the end. Ernest was great about explaining all the nuances in purchasing a home. He guided us through the whole process and referred us to the right loan agent to get us qualified! Very responsive to our calls, emails, and texts! Very professional and courteous! Highly recommend if you are in the market for a manufactured home!

    I found Advantage Homes while doing a search for mobile home parks in the Hayward area. My wife and I unexpectedly found ourselves needing to relocate because of my job and we hardly knew where to start. I sent an email to the company about a home I found that they were listing and got a very quick response from one of their agents, Jennifer Costa. Jennifer ended up being our agent throughout our buying experience and I couldn't recommend anyone more than I do her. My wife and I found her to be knowledgeable, proactive, flexible, and patient. Jennifer was part agent, part advisor, part friend, and part therapist depending on the day! The bottom line is that Jennifer did an outstanding job of helping us find the right home, in the right park, and at the right price. One of the strongest points I can make about Jennifer is her follow through... whether it was a phone call, an email, an in-person appointment, or a simple text message, she kept her commitments. That's not all too common these days. Whether you're looking to buy or sell a mobile or manufactured home in the Bay Area, I highly recommend Advantage Homes and Jennifer Costa; you can't go wrong!
