The Company

Homestead Communities combines the institutional capability of one of the world’s largest real estate investors with the entrepreneurial energy and deep expertise of seasoned leaders in the manufactured housing community industry.

We have offices and investments nationwide, combining broad perspective with local market knowledge. With our property management partners, we can efficiently respond to opportunities nationwide and attentively manage communities nationwide.

Our dedicated teams include specialists in financial analysis, transaction execution, tax planning, law, accounting, engineering, title, insurance, property tax, property management – everything needed to smoothly manage an investment. Our teams manage hundreds of real estate purchases, sales, financings and joint ventures annually.

We manage funds with discretionary capital and so need no third-party approvals to make investments. Those funds have more capital than we are likely to ever invest. There is no practical limit to the size of investment we can make, and we are still eager to serve owners of smaller communities as we grow our business.

The Mission

We’re helping solve the affordable housing crisis in the United States: We provide safe, clean and supportive communities where working families and retirees can own or rent high-quality manufactured homes. We are committed to responsible stewardship of our communities for the long-term benefit of our residents.

For sellers of manufactured housing communities, we offer compelling valuations, flexible acquisition structures, (including innovative tax planning), and dependable closings. For owners not ready to sell, we have a broad lending platform and can structure other investments, (such as preferred equity), tailored to your needs.

We provide engaging careers for our team members, combining an entrepreneurial culture with deep industry knowledge and the support of one of the world’s largest real estate investors.

Our institutional investors have committed the significant capital needed to create a national portfolio of manufactured housing communities, so we can serve more and more residents and owners.

That’s the mission. We’re proud to be doing it.
