The news brief is <\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/?p=35865\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">linked here<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">, which specifies he will be involved at some level as a consultant.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Friends and those from across the spectrum will all agree. This is change is not to be understated!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The changing of the guard at MHARR is a significant event for all of manufactured housing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>Giving Danny his Due<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Anyone that ever dealt with Danny never forgets the man. Danny has strong, faithful loyalists. He is in the RV MH Hall of Fame for good reasons. \u00a0Even his opponents admit he is perhaps among the strongest on many details of the HUD Code, the Manufactured Housing Improvement Act of 2000 (MHIA 2000), etc.. His background in engineering is part of that expertise.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Those outside of MHARR must acknowledge that the longevity and continuity of that organization compared to many others is quite remarkable.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">For example. Compared to the the tenure of MHARR staff, MHI looks like a revolving door &#8211; where once again &#8211; yet another staff member is leaving MHI this year. That&#8217;s not a slam on MHI, it is simply a fact.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">After some 4 decades of working in the manufactured housing industry, Danny has earned a good retirement. As the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mhmarketingsalesmanagement.com\/latest-news-from-mharr\/8691-46-year-industry-veteran-danny-ghorbani-to-retire\" target=\"_blank\">MHARR press release stated<\/a>, he isn&#8217;t exiting the stage completely, he will continue on as a consultant for MHARR.
