About Us

The company started with travel trailers and new and used cars. However, in 1974 when H.U.D. got involved in the construction of what we know today as mobile homes, Uncle Roy changed his focus to what he saw as the most affordable, most needed and best valued product he had ever seen. At this point, Uncle Roy’s Mobile Homes became a landmark in Ocala and this new emerging industry and quickly became the largest single retail store in the country.
