Mobile homeowners are being held hostage and forced in some cases to hand over their title just to get out of their lease with Equity Lifestyle Properties

I am the founder of the Facebook group We the people getting screwed by Equity Lifestyle Properties and mobilehomeownersunite.org which hosts this blog and other materials.

I have had firsthand experience living under the iron fist of Equity Lifestyle Properties otherwise known as ELS. To start with its very hard to get what you think your home value is. The high lot rents have a lot to do with this and people just can’t afford both the cost of the home and the rent that comes with it. Equity Lifestyle Properties who advertise under the shell company MyMHCommunity.com force us to give our homes away to make the sale. I bought mine in 21 for 30k and I bought sight unseen other than the realtor pictures but it was a dump and I put somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 thousand into it with appliances and remodeling upgrades but I can barely get my money back and when I finally find someone ready to take my home for half of what it’s worth now I have to ask permission from ELS.

So the applicant did not pass the vetting process or so they say so , you can’t ask why so now it’s back to square one 10 to 15 days later. I would recommend to anyone trying to sell to focus on your getting out of ELS first before you start looking for something else or at least don’t make any offers until you are out of your lot rent lease with ELS. I can’t afford to pay for two places so I hope I get a new prospect but then again it’s all in the hands of ELS
