#173: Franco Perez- Using Mobile Homes as a Tool to Building Generational Wealth and Impact
“It all comes down to impact and with the younger generations, we find they are also seeking ways to make a difference, but sometimes they don’t get the opportunity to feel they are making a difference.” -Franco Perez
Today I am interviewing Franco Perez. He is the Founder of Franco Mobile Homes, a company that focuses on providing affordable, efficient, and well designed mobile homes to residents of the Bay area of California. Franco’s personal experiences of economic disparities landed him in the real estate field where he began his search for solutions. He is a beacon for the affordable housing movement whose goal is to give families the opportunity to become homeowners and obtain financial stability.
Frano Perez: Moved to CA at the age of 11 from the Philippines with his family. At 18 Fracno had to quit school so that he could work and provide for his family. He became a real estate agent and after working in the industry for a bit, Franco had a realization that the wealth gap was significant between the wealthy and working class. His question became how do I help people bridge the wealth gap and his solution was mobile homes.
