Family-Owned Since 1999: Homes for Flagstaff, AZ Buyers

11/2/2026

If you are planning a manufactured home on land around Flagstaff or elsewhere in Coconino County, the company you buy from matters as much as the floor plan. Best Buy Homes Inc. in Paulden has been family-owned and operated since 1999, and its own motto sums up the approach: "Quality Homes. Complete Service." Here is what that means in practice for a northern Arizona buyer, plus a few Coconino County permit basics to know before you start.

A family business that does the work in-house

Best Buy Homes says it handles everything in-house. Rather than handing you a home and a list of other contractors to call, its teams specialize in manufactured home setup and manage the process from start to finish. According to the company's website, that includes:

• Site surveys
• Permitting
• Home delivery and setup
• Septic system installation
• Landscaping
• Final finishing touches

The goal, in the company's words, is "move-in ready homes." For a buyer in Coconino County, where many home sites are rural parcels that need a septic system and careful site prep, having one team responsible for the whole sequence can save a lot of back-and-forth. You can read more about the family and how they work on the About Us page.

Coconino County permit basics

Permits are one of the steps that trip up first-time buyers, so it helps to know how Coconino County handles them. A few points from the county's own permitting FAQ:

The county issues manufactured home permits. The FAQ states that "Coconino County has a delegation agreement from the State Office of Manufactured Housing to issue permits," so installation permits for unincorporated county land go through the county.

Septic comes first. The county is direct about the order: "A septic permit shall be issued before a building permit is issued." If your land is not on a sewer system, the septic design and permit need to be in place before the home's building permit can be issued. Since Best Buy Homes installs septic systems itself, it can plan this step alongside the rest of the job.

Plan review takes time. The FAQ says the Coconino County Building Division "tries to meet a 15 working day, 1st plan review process." Build that into your timeline, especially if you are hoping to move before a particular season.

Older homes have extra rules. Mobile homes built before June 15, 1976 have to be rehabilitated and approved by the State Office of Manufactured Housing, which is one more reason many buyers choose a new home.

If your land is inside Flagstaff city limits rather than unincorporated county land, check with the city about its permit process, since the county FAQ does not cover city parcels. You can read the county's answers yourself on the Coconino County permitting FAQ, and the county's permit technicians can tell you which division to start with.

Homes northern Arizona buyers are looking at

Best Buy Homes carries homes from builders including Clayton and Champion, with single wides, double wides, display homes and spec homes in its catalog. A few that shoppers have spent time on recently:

The Octave is a 4-bedroom, 2-bath home with 1,920 square feet in a 28' x 72' footprint, a lot of room for a growing family. See the Octave

The Copper Ridge 28664A also has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, with 1,738 square feet in a 26'4" x 66' layout. See the Copper Ridge 28664A

The Desert Vista APDV207L goes the other direction: a 1-bedroom, 1-bath home with 398 square feet and a loft floor plan. Its listed standard specs include a 10" steel I-beam frame, 2x6 floors 16" on center, vinyl Low-E windows, R-22 roof insulation, PEX plumbing and a composition shingle roof. It is the kind of compact home some buyers look at for a smaller parcel or a guest space. See the Desert Vista APDV207L

The website does not list prices on these homes, so call or message the office for current pricing and for what your specific site will need.

Why family-owned still matters

A company that has been run by the same family since 1999 has a reputation to protect in the communities it serves. When the same people sell the home, survey the site, pull the permits, install the septic and set the house, there is one name responsible for the result. That is the kind of accountability worth asking any retailer about: who does the work, and who do you call if something needs attention after move-in?

When you compare options, ask for a written list of what is included, which parts of the job are done in-house, and what the timeline looks like for permits and septic on your land.
