We can appraise our current mobile home, help you to apply its value towards your new home, coordinate site preparation with local contractors (well, septic and foundation) as well as help to arrange financing through one of our qualified lenders. Once you’ve moved into your new home, we will be there for you providing any support and services that might be required.

Forrest Bryant, President

I grew up in Jefferson, Maine, and graduated from Lincoln Academy. Shortly after graduating, I began working at the local Chevrolet dealer, where I gained valuable experience in sales, service, and parts over 14 years. In 2005, I joined Ralph's Homes, working closely with Rick for years to learn every aspect of the company and the manufactured home process. In January 2025, I proudly purchased the business and became the owner of Ralph's Homes. I am committed to continuing our tradition of providing customers with high-quality manufactured homes and the excellent customer service they have come to know and trust.

I grew up in the Wiscasset area, attending Wiscasset High School and graduating from Becker College with a degree in Veterinary Technology. After over two decades in the animal industry, I decided to move on to a new career path. I started working at Ralph’s in May of 2015. I look forward to this new endeavor while learning a new industry and meeting a wide array of new people and professionals. So far, it has been a great choice as I continue to work with customers, designing and building their new dream homes.

Born and raised in Damariscotta and spent 15 years of my life engaged in labor work. While I value that experience, change is a good thing and I'm excited to embark on this new journey. One spiritual mantra that I find resonates deeply and guides my actions is "Be present, be kind, be grateful." It's a simple reminder to stay grounded in the moment, treat others with compassion, and appreciate the blessings in life. We have a great group of people here that will make this journey memorable for years to come.

Jeff, Set Coordinator

Jeff joined Ralph's Homes in 2006 after a career in the automotive industry. Since then, he's become an indispensable part of our team. As the Set Supervisor, his responsibilities range from weather forecasting and coordinating deliveries to managing cranes and crews, ensuring projects are completed smoothly and efficiently. You'll often find him doing site visits, running miscellaneous materials, and going the extra mile to make sure everything runs seamlessly. And on some days, he even answers the phones and greets customers with a smile! Jeff's dedication and versatility are key to our success at Ralph's Homes.

Sue, Bookkeeper

I moved to Maine in 1988 with my husband and three children. We've lived in various towns along the coast, including Bremen, Bristol, Waldoboro, and now Nobleboro. We love the coastal life and enjoy activities like kayaking, boating, and swimming. Before joining Ralphs in December 2022, I served as the Town Clerk, Treasurer, and Tax Collector for Nobleboro for 9 years. I'm excited about this new chapter and learning about the Manufactured Home business.

After dedicating over forty years to the manufactured housing industry, I made the decision to retire and sell the company to my trusted general manager, Forrest Bryant. Having worked closely with him for years, I am confident that both current and future customers will be well cared for, with the same integrity and commitment that have long been the foundation of Ralph’s Homes.
