Maxton, NC – Hurricane Matthew did not spare any part of Venissa Locklear’s mobile home. “We lost shingles and vinyl siding,” she says. “Moisture got underneath the floors, causing them to cave in. And there was water damage inside the walls and around the windows, too.” While the family was able to make a few quick fixes, such as throwing a tarp over the roof, the home needed more substantial repairs. Locklear’s son suggested that she buy a used mobile home that was in better condition than theirs, but there were none at the sales park.
