Mark Ellis

Founder

I married my love, Joan, in 1973, and together we have celebrated 51 wonderful years. We are proud to have raised three sons, all of whom have dedicated nearly two decades to various roles within Eagle Homes. Our family legacy continues with our adult grandchildren, who are also joyfully working alongside us. Being a family-owned and operated business is a source of great pride for us.  

My journey in the manufactured home industry began in 1974, and I have never looked back. With 50 years of unwavering commitment, I have dedicated myself to providing quality manufactured and modular homes, alongside customer service that is second to none. After the success of our first branch in Salmon Arm, we expanded to Cranbrook, Kamloops, and Castlegar to better serve communities across British Columbia.  

Community involvement is a core value that I hold dear. I currently serve actively engaged with the Shuswap Rotary Club. 

If you are considering a new home, you can trust that our combined experience, honesty, and dedication will guide you through the process—from the very beginning to your happily-ever-after.
