Community living gives the word 'neighborhood' a whole new meaning Michigan Manufactured Housing Association

Land-lease communities provide homeowners with affordable housing in a great neighborhood environment. Residents own their homes, but lease their home sites, freeing their budgets from the additional expense of land ownership.

Community living offers many advantages over private dwellings. Residents enjoy all of the features and services that community living has to offer, including a warm, friendly atmosphere, amenities such as swimming pools, community clubhouses, playgrounds, ball fields, walking/biking trails and RV storage-facilities you won't find in most subdivisions or even condominium developments. Land-lease communities offer a safe and supportive environment for you and your family, in a place you can trust. Some communities offer community-wide events such as potluck dinners and holiday parties to bring the neighborhood together.

There is certainly a sense of community living says Lora Baumann, long-time community manager who personally knows the benefits of community living, having lived in both a site-built subdivision and a land-lease community. "You look out for each other, more so than subdivisions," she said.

Most communities have on-site community managers like Baumann and Fran Wooten. Both Wooten and Baumann help to enforce rules designed to protect a homeowner's investment, plan events, and maintain safe community environments. Wooten says that having a manager who lives in the community gives an added feeling of security for the residents. "For the most part, residents feel better having a manager on site."

Homeland-lease community living is a great lifestyle choice. Residents live surrounded by neighbors who look out for each other, enjoying each other's company at planned events, and giving new meaning to the word "neighborhood."
