MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------
OVERVIEW
The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto. Capitalized terms are used as
defined elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, income before other, net increased by
10.6 percent from $16.0 million to $17.7 million, when compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was due to increased revenues of $6.3
million while expenses increased by $4.6 million.
Income from property increased by $5.0 million from $56.9 million to $61.9
million or 8.9 percent, due to acquisitions ($2.2 million), lease up of
manufactured home sites including new development ($1.1 million) and increases
in rents and other community revenues ($1.7 million).
Other income increased by $1.2 million from $2.4 million to $3.6 million due
primarily to a $1.1 million increase in interest income.
Property operating and maintenance increased by $0.7 million from $12.6 million
to $13.3 million or 5.9 percent due primarily to acquisitions ($0.6 million).
Real estate taxes remained constant at $4.4 million during 1999 and 1998.
Property management expenses increased by $0.3 million from $1.0 million to $1.3
million representing 2.0 percent and 1.8 percent of income from property in 1999
and 1998, respectively.
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million from $1.7 million
to $1.9 million or 9.7 percent due primarily to increased staffing to manage the
growth of the Company. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of
income from property remained constant at 3.0 percent in both periods.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")
increased by $5.1 million from $39.6 million to $44.7 million. EBITDA as a
percent of revenues increased to 68.2 percent in 1999 compared to 66.8 percent
in 1998.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.0 million from $12.0 million to
$14.0 million or 16.7 percent due primarily to the acquisitions of communities

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-----------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CONTINUED
Interest expense increased by $1.4 million from $11.6 million to $13.0 million
or 11.9 percent primarily due to increased average debt outstanding.
Other, net of $0.9 million in 1998 represents a gain from the disposition of
certain assets.
Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
For the three months ended June 30, 1999, income before other, net increased by
9.5 percent from $8.0 million to $8.7 million, when compared to the three months
ended June 30, 1998. The increase was due to increased revenues of $2.8 million
while expenses increased by $2.1 million.
Income from property increased by $2.3 million from $28.3 million to $30.6
million or 8.1 percent, due to acquisitions ($0.7 million), lease up of
manufactured home sites including new development ($0.5 million) and increases
in rents and other community revenues ($1.1 million).
Other income increased by $0.5 million from $1.6 million to $2.1 million due
primarily to a $0.4 million increase in interest income.
Property operating and maintenance increased by $0.3 million from $6.1 million
to $6.4 million or 5.0 percent due to acquisitions.
Real estate taxes remained constant at $2.2 million during 1999 and 1998.
Property management expenses increased by $0.1 million from $0.5 million to $0.6
million representing 2.1 percent and 1.9 percent of income from property in 1999
and 1998, respectively.
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million from $0.9 million
to $1.0 million or 10.7 percent due primarily to increased staffing to manage
the growth of the company. General and administrative expenses as a percentage
of income from property increased slightly from 3.0 percent in 1998 to 3.1
percent in 1999.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")
increased by $2.3 million from $20.1 million to $22.4 million. EBITDA as a
percent of revenues increased to 68.6 percent in 1999 compared to 67.3 percent
in 1998.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.1 million from $6.0 million to
$7.1 million or 17.6 percent due primarily to acquisitions of communities in
1999 and 1998.
Interest expense increased by $0.5 million from $6.0 million to $6.5 million or

On a same property basis, property revenues increased by $2.6 million from $41.0
million to $43.6 million, or 6.4 percent, due primarily to increases in rents
and occupancy related charges including water and property tax pass throughs.
Also contributing to revenue growth was the increase of 489 leased sites at June
30, 1999 compared to June 30, 1998.
Property operating expenses increased by $0.2 million from $10.9 million to
$11.1 million or 1.6 percent, due to increased occupancies and costs. Property
EBITDA increased by $2.4 million from $30.0 million to $32.4 million, or 8.1

million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $32.1 million for the
same period in 1998. This decrease was due to accounts payable and other
liabilities, including distributions, decreasing by $8.0 million and other
assets decreasing by $2.6 million offset by a $3.7 million increase in income
before minority interests, depreciation and amortization and other.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $16.0 million to $49.3
million from $65.3 million due to a $25.7 million decrease in rental property
acquisition activities offset by an increase of $6.1 million used to finance
notes receivable and a decrease in proceeds of $4.7 million related to asset
sales.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $15.2 million to $17.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $32.8 million for the
same period in 1998. This decrease was primarily because $62.5 million of notes
payable, net of deferred financing costs, were issued in 1998 and none issued in
1999, offset by increased borrowings on the line of credit of $50.0 million.
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its working capital provided by operating activities. The Company
expects to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements such as scheduled debt
maturities and property acquisitions through the issuance of debt securities, or
general or limited partnership interests. The Company considers these sources to
be adequate and anticipates they will continue to be adequate to meet operating
requirements, capital improvements, investment in development, and payment of
distributions by the Company in accordance with REIT requirements in both the
short and long term. The Company can also meet these short-term and long-term
requirements by utilizing its $125 million line of credit which bears interest
at LIBOR plus 1.05%.
At June 30, 1999, the Company"s debt to total market capitalization approximated
35% (assuming conversion of all Common and Preferred OP Units to shares of
common stock), with a weighted average maturity of approximately 5.6 years and a
weighted average interest rate of 7.0%.
Recurring capital expenditures approximated $3.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999, including $0.4 million for additional space and related
costs at corporate headquarters.

Year 2000 Update
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue concerns the inability of computerized information
systems and non-information systems to accurately calculate, store or use a date
after 1999. This could result in computer system failures or miscalculations
causing disruptions of operations.
In 1997, the Company implemented a corporate-wide Y2K program to minimize any
such disruption caused by the failures of its own internal systems or those of
its business supply chain. In the first phase of the project, the Company
reviewed its inventory of computer hardware and software, and other devices with
embedded microprocessors. The Company also discussed its software applications
and internal operational programs with its current information systems' vendors.
Finally, in this assessment phase, key members of the business supply chain were
contacted and interviewed regarding their awareness of the Y2K problem and the
status of their own Y2K project. The first phase was completed on schedule and
all key members of the Company's business supply chain reported that they were
aware of the Y2K problem and were in the process of readying for the Y2K issue.
In the second phase of the project, all systems found to be Y2K non-compliant
were upgraded, fixed, replaced and tested. The second phase was also completed
on schedule in December 1998. The Company believes that as a result of this
Implementation/Testing phase, its applications and programs will properly
recognize calendar dates beginning in the year 2000. The Company plans to
continue monitoring Y2K communications from its software vendors and anticipates
that some vendors will recommend further patches/upgrades and testing.
In the third and final phase of the Y2K program, the Company surveyed its
material third-party service providers, such as its banks, payroll processor,
stock transfer agent and telecommunications provider. The purpose of the survey
is to follow-up on the status of their Y2K compliance efforts and assess what
effect their possible non-compliance might have on the Company. In addition, the
Company discussed with its material vendors the possibility of any interface
difficulties and/or electrical or mechanical problems relating to the Y2K which
may affect properties owned or operated by the Company. The third phase was
completed on schedule in April 1999. While all surveyed vendors reported that
they were aware of the Y2K issue and were scheduled to have all systems remedied
before December 31, 1999, most vendors were reluctant to guarantee that their
Y2K issues would not adversely affect the operations of the Company. The Company
has therefore developed contingency plans for all important business functions
dependent on members of its business supply chain.
The Company believes that its expenditures for assessing its Y2K issues, though
difficult to quantify, to date have not been material because the Company's Y2K
evaluation has been conducted by its own personnel or by its vendors in
connection with their servicing operations. The Company received a third-party
assessment of its Y2K program methodology and has addressed the recommendations
that were deemed appropriate by the Company. The Company is not aware of any
other Y2K related conditions that it believes would likely require material
expenditures in the future.

OTHER CONTINUED:
Year 2000 Update, Continued
Based on its current information, the Company believes that the risk posed by
any foreseeable Y2K related problem with its internal systems and the systems at
its properties (including both information and non-information systems) or with
its vendors is minimal. Y2K related problems with the Company's software
applications and internal operational programs or with the electrical or
mechanical systems at its properties are unlikely to cause more than minor
disruptions in the Company's operations. The Company believes that the risk
posed by Y2K related problems for certain third-party service providers is
marginally greater, though, based on its current information, the Company does
not believe any such problems would have a material effect on its operations.
Any Y2K related problems at these third-party service providers could delay the
processing of financial transactions or payroll and could disrupt the Company's
internal and external communications.
While the Company believes that it will be Y2K capable by December 31, 1999,
there can be no assurance that the Company has been or will be successful in
identifying and assessing Y2K issues, or that, to the extent identified, the
Company's efforts to resolve such issues will be effective such that Y2K issues
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition, or results of operation.
