When Bonny and Alec Taylor found their dream home with Clayton, Bonny didn’t expect their home buying journey to turn into a passionate career. Learn how she’s helping others become Clayton Built® homeowners.
During the Taylor’s search for a new home outside of Greeneville, TN, they worked with real estate agents in the area, and ended up stopping by Clayton Homes of Rogersville just to see what was available. In the end, they chose the Treyburn home model from Clayton for its size, quality and layout, all at an affordable price.

Turning her passion into a career
When Bonny and Alec were at the home center to finalize the personal touches for their new home, Bonny struck up a conversation with another potential home buyer. When the home buyer said they hadn’t found what they were looking for, Bonny shared her own experience with Clayton.
“I started telling him what we did,” said Bonny. “You can make it a four bedroom, you can flip the floor plan. And before I knew it, I was kind of in a salesperson role at that point.”
This experience helped Bonny realize that she could turn her love for Clayton into a great career.
“It just led me to think, this is finally a product, a service I believe in,” said Bonny. “And the fact I could have a job bringing that to others, I thought, ‘I can do that.’”
When the Taylors were closing on their house, Bonny expressed interest in working for Clayton and selling homes. Six months later, Bonny got a call about a job opening for a home center representative. This was the beginning of Bonny’s career with Clayton, and her journey to help others achieve homeownership.
