SAMUEL A. LANDY, PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF UMH PROPERTIES, INC., INDUCTED INTO THE RV/MH HALL OF FAME
August 20 2024 - 2:10PM
UMH Properties, Inc. (NYSE: UMH) (TASE: UMH) is pleased to announce
that on August 19, 2024, Samuel A. Landy, President and Chief
Executive Officer, was inducted into the RV/MH Hall of Fame.
Mr. Landy started his career at UMH in 1991 and
was promoted to his current role of President and Chief Executive
Officer in 1995. Under his leadership, UMH has grown its portfolio
of manufactured housing communities from 22 communities containing
approximately 4,200 homesites in 1991 to 136 communities containing
approximately 25,800 homesites, currently. His strategy of
acquiring value-add communities with vacancies and deferred
maintenance has allowed UMH to acquire and improve communities
while adding to the supply of affordable housing in the markets
that we operate. He has also championed the expansion of existing
communities and the greenfield development of new communities.
Over the course of his career, UMH successfully
launched UMH Sales and Finance, Inc., which has sold over 5,700
manufactured homes and financed over $100 million of manufactured
home loans for consumers. As finance laws changed and made
financing homes challenging, Mr. Landy pivoted to a rental model
and UMH now has a portfolio of 10,200 rental homes. Mr. Landy is
directly responsible for the past and future success of UMH
Properties, Inc.
Eugene W. Landy, Founder and Chairman of the
Board, commented, “Gratitude and recognition for my son, Sam Landy,
is truly appropriate. Not only has he helped create affordable
housing in the past, but he has created a best-in-class operating
platform for greater housing prosperity in the future.
Additionally, he has become a leader for the entire manufactured
housing industry. He has continually pushed for innovation and
progress to better serve the Nation’s housing needs.”
UMH is capable of building many high-quality and
affordable manufactured home communities each year. This capability
is at a time when the world of affordable housing is of great
social concern. Recently, the federal government appropriately
recognized that manufactured housing can be an essential part of
the solution in creating the needed affordable housing supply.
Sam’s induction into the MH/RV Hall of Fame is
in recognition of his personal lifetime efforts to source
governmental recognition for the manufactured housing industry. I
am proud to have worked with and watched Sam grow into the great
President and CEO that he is today.”
UMH Properties, Inc., which was organized in
1968, is a public equity REIT that owns and operates 136
manufactured home communities containing approximately 25,800
developed homesites. These communities are located in New Jersey,
New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Maryland,
Michigan, Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia. UMH also has an
ownership interest in and operates two communities in Florida,
containing 363 sites, through its joint venture with Nuveen Real
Estate.
