Travis Person, P.E.

Travis Person is a licensed North Carolina professional engineer and the second generation to run Person Engineering, the firm his father, William Person, founded. He holds a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. He specializes in foundation certifications for manufactured homes — the sealed engineering letters that FHA, VA, USDA, and conventional lenders require before a manufactured home can be financed as real estate.

He performs and seals this work himself. Every certification letter issued by Person Engineering carries his stamp and signature, and the evaluation behind it — how a home transfers its load into the ground, how it’s anchored against wind and uplift, whether an addition affects the structure — is his engineering judgment applied to that specific home on that specific site.

He works across all of North Carolina, from the mountain counties to the coast, and some of his client relationships with dealers, lenders, and agents go back twenty to thirty years. He answers his own phone.
