ITEM 2.           ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

Manufactured Home Communities, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have
acquired thirty-nine manufactured home communities and two commercial properties
during the period from January 1, 1997 through December 18, 1997. Twenty-one of
the manufactured home communities and the two commercial properties were
reported on Form 8-K/A dated August 29, 1997. The acquisitions of the remaining
eighteen manufactured home communities, along with the probable acquisitions of
additional communities, are discussed below.

ARROWHEAD VILLAGE, LANTANA, FLORIDA

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
On September 18, 1997, the Company acquired Arrowhead Village, a 602-site senior
community located in Palm Beach County, Florida. Amenities include: a clubhouse,
two swimming pools, shuffleboard, billiards and a library. As of September 30,
1997, occupancy was 95%.

TERMS OF PURCHASE
The purchase price of Arrowhead Village was approximately $20.3 million. The
Company purchased the property from Arrowhead Village, Inc., a Florida
corporation. The acquisition was funded with a borrowing under the Company's
line of credit.

THE ELLENBURG TRANSACTION

On September 4, 1997, the Company entered into a portfolio purchase agreement to
acquire 35 manufactured home communities (the "Ellenburg Communities") from
partnerships having Ellenburg Capital Corporation ("ECC") as the general partner
for a purchase price of approximately $306 million. The Ellenburg Communities
are being sold pursuant to an order of the Superior Court for the State of
California (the "California Court"), by which ECC was involuntarily dissolved
and the California Court appointed the Winding-Up Agents to liquidate and
wind-up the affairs of ECC. In December 1997, the Company entered into a
supplemental agreement (the "Supplemental Agreement") which was approved by the
California Court. Sales pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement are subject to
limited partner approval. The Company has received limited partner approval from
partnerships owning 23 of the Ellenburg Communities and approval of an
additional partnership which owns a portion of another Ellenburg Community. As
of the date of this filing, the Company closed on the acquisition of 18 of the
Ellenburg Communities. In addition, the Company has funded a loan on one other
Ellenburg Community, the terms of which result in effective ownership of such
property. For financial accounting purposes, this loan will be accounted for as
an investment in real estate. The Company is in the process of getting limited
partner approval to acquire the remaining Ellenburg Communities. The Company has
120 days to complete certain post-closing due diligence procedures and adjust
the purchase price to the extent that (i) the net operating income of the
communities is less than the amount used to determine the purchase price; (ii)
the community requires environmental, structural engineering, deferred
maintenance and other physical or legal costs which may be in excess of
anticipated amounts for such items, and (iii) the community has negative working
capital. The maximum amount for such adjustments will be an amount equal to 25%
of the net equity value of the community which will be held in escrow for 120
days from closing. Therefore, the Company has not made an allocation of the
purchase price to the various communities. The acquisition was financed through
an additional borrowing with a bank and through the Company's line of credit.

On December 18, 1997, the Company acquired the following seventeen Ellenburg
Communities:

(A)  Reflects the acquisition of the Ellenburg Communities, nineteen of which
     have been acquired (one through mortgage funding) as of the date of this
     filing, and sixteen probable acquisitions. In connection with the Ellenburg
     transaction the amounts presented include the initial purchase price as
     well as liabilities assumed and subsequent closing costs incurred in the
     acquisition. The amounts also reflect debt assumed and additional
     borrowings under the Company's line of credit for the acquisition of the
     Ellenburg Communities. In addition, for certain acquired properties the
     Company's purchase price includes an obligation to make specified payments
     over a period of six to eight years. These specified payments have been
     discounted at a rate of 8.5% for purposes of calculating the purchase
     price. The Company owns limited partnership units in certain limited

     property has been increased and investment in partnerships decreased to
     reflect the acquisition of these communities.

                         Report of Independent Auditors



The Board of Directors of
Manufactured Home Communities, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain
expenses of 35 Ellenburg Capital Corporation Communities (the "1997 Acquired
Properties and Probable Properties") as described in Note 2 for the year ended
December 31, 1996. The combined statement of revenue and certain expenses is the
responsibility of the Acquired Properties and Probable Properties' management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the combined statement of revenue
and certain expenses based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the combined statement of revenue and certain expenses
is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined statement of
revenue and certain expenses. An audit also includes assessing the basis of
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined statement of revenue and
certain expenses. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

The accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain expenses was prepared
for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, for inclusion in the Current Report on Form 8-K of
Manufactured Home Communities, Inc. as described in Note 1, and is not intended
to be a complete presentation of the 1997 Acquired Properties and Probable
Properties' combined revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the combined statement of revenue and certain expenses referred
to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the combined revenue and
certain expenses described in Note 1 of the 1997 Acquired Properties and
Probable Properties for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                        Notes to the Combined Statements
                         of Revenue and Certain Expenses



1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying combined statements of revenue and certain expenses for the
year ended December 31, 1996, and the nine months ended September 30, 1997
(unaudited), were prepared for the purposes of complying with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the
Current Report on Form 8-K of Manufactured Home Communities, Inc. (the
"Company"). The accompanying combined financial statements are not
representative of the actual operations of the 1997 Acquired Properties and
Probable Properties for the periods presented as certain expenses, which may not
be comparable to the expenses to be incurred by the Company in the proposed
future operations of the Properties, have been excluded. Expenses excluded
consist of interest, depreciation and amortization, and other costs not directly
related to the future operations of the Properties.

Basis of Combination

The accompanying combined statements of revenue and certain expenses have been
presented on a combined basis because Ellenburg Capital Corporation is the
General Partner of all of the 1997 Acquired Properties and Probable Properties.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the combined statements of revenue and certain expenses in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

Revenue and Expense Recognition

Revenue is recorded in the period in which it is earned. Expenses are recognized
in the period in which they are incurred.

Unaudited Interim Statement

The combined statement of revenue and certain expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, the interim
financial statement reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
of the results of the interim period. All such adjustments are of a normal,
recurring nature.
