Meanwhile, White House press memos to MHProNews seem to be pushing back on the widely reported notion that ‘there are no good options’ on North Korea. Public statements and tweets by the president suggest he and the U.S. military are “locked and loaded,” the kind of lingo no Democratic or Republican president has used since the mid-1990s regarding the DPRK (Democratic Republic of Korea, a.k.a. the north).
But that’s not our featured report for today. RHP’s new buys are.

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
RHP Closes on 2 More Manufactured Home Communities
The RE Journals provided a succinct report on RHP’s purchase of 2 additional manufactured home communities in the Detroit metro area. See the map below which drop’s the marker on Sherwood Village, the larger of the two properties.
To their credit, the RE Journals didn’t use the T word or the ‘park’ word. However, for the sake of investors who want to learn the proper lingo, “manufactured home communities” is preferred to “manufactured housing” communities.
Here are the key snippets from their report, with the graphic credits as show.
“RHP Properties recently acquired two communities in Canton Township, Michigan, bringing the company’s total of manufactured home communities to 225 across the nation.
RHP Properties acquired the 365-site Sherwood Village Manufactured Home Community and the 51-site Glen Ridge community, both all-age communities. This 416-site portfolio is located 20 minutes from downtown Detroit and a 10-minute drive to Metro Airport.
With these two acquisitions, RHP Properties now owns and operates 225 manufactured home communities totaling more than 56,997 home sites.”
