ITEM 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On March 15, 2006, the Registrant’s subsidiary, All American Homes of Tennessee, LLC, has entered into a Contract for Sale of Real Estate with MMS Investment Group, Inc. Pursuant to the Contract, All American will sell its Robertson County, Tennessee, plant and related personal property to MMS for $5,275,000 in cash.

MMS may terminate the Contract if upon inspection it discovers a defect that materially affects the value of the property for MMS’s intended use. MMS made a $250,000 earnest money deposit toward the purchase price into escrow, a portion of which may be forfeited if MMS does not complete the transaction by June 19, 2006, unless MMS extends the deadline for an additional 31 days by depositing an additional $50,000 into the escrow.

The completion of the sale is subject to certain other customary conditions.  The Registrant cannot give assurance that the proposed transaction contemplated by the Contract will close or close on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Contract.
