Samuel A. Landy, President and CEO of UMH Properties, Inc., stated “Our second quarter operating results continue to demonstrate the effectiveness and success of our long-term business plan. The quarter was highlighted by the addition to our Fannie Mae credit facility. These refinancings document the substantial value of our communities and of our portfolio. Additionally, the refinancing generated approximately $56 million in proceeds above the outstanding principal balances that we are able to accretively deploy into our rental home program, expansions, capital improvements and potential acquisitions. We are working on refinancings for the remaining 2025 mortgage maturities and anticipate similar results.”

“Our communities continue to experience strong demand which we are converting into occupied sites through our rental home and sales programs. We are proud to announce that our second quarter sales set a new quarterly sales record.”

“Our rental home program continues to perform well with the conversion of 188 new homes from inventory to revenue generating rental homes in the second quarter. For the year, we have converted 305 homes from inventory to revenue generating rental homes. We believe we can still meet our 800 new rental home target in 2025 as we have over 500 new homes in various stages of set up throughout our portfolio.”

“We look forward to continued sales and occupancy growth throughout the year.”
