During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we completed the sale of Valley Brook, a MH community located in Indiana. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" ("ASU 2014-08"), the disposal of the community does not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation, as the sale does not have a major impact on our operations and financial results and does not represent a strategic shift. Additionally, the community is not considered an individually significant component and therefore does not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation. A gain of $8.8 million is recorded in "Gain on disposition of properties, net" in our consolidated statements of operations. |

Transfers and Servicing [Abstract] | ||||
Transfers Of Financial Assets | Transfers of Financial Assets | |||
We completed various transactions with an unrelated entity involving our notes receivable under which we received cash proceeds in exchange for relinquishing our right, title and interest in certain notes receivable. We have no further obligations or rights with respect to the control, management, administration, servicing, or collection of the installment notes. However, we are subject to certain recourse provisions requiring us to purchase the underlying homes collateralizing such notes, in the event of a note default and subsequent repossession of the home by the unrelated entity. The recourse provisions are considered to be a form of continuing involvement, and therefore these transferred loans did not meet the requirements for sale accounting. We continue to recognize these transferred loans on our balance sheet and refer to them as collateralized receivables. The proceeds from the transfer have been recognized as a secured borrowing. | ||||
In the event of note default, and subsequent repossession of a manufactured home by the unrelated entity, the terms of the agreement require us to repurchase the manufactured home. Default is defined as the failure to repay the installment note according to contractual terms. The repurchase price is calculated as a percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the collateralized receivable, plus any outstanding late fees, accrued interest, legal fees, and escrow advances associated with the installment note. The percentage used to determine the repurchase price of the outstanding principal balance on the installment note is based on the number of payments made on the note. In general, the repurchase price is determined as follows: | ||||
Number of Payments | Repurchase % | |||
Fewer than or equal to 15 | 100 | % | ||
Greater than 15 but less than 64 | 90 | % | ||
Equal to or greater than 64 but less than 120 | 65 | % | ||
120 or more | 50 | % | ||
The transferred assets have been classified as collateralized receivables in Notes and Other Receivables (see Note 5), and the cash proceeds received from these transactions have been classified as a secured borrowing in Debt (see Note 9) within the consolidated balance sheets. The balance of the collateralized receivables was $127.3 million (net of allowance of $0.6 million) and $123.0 million (net of allowance of $0.7 million) as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The outstanding balance on the secured borrowing was $127.9 million and $123.7 million as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. | ||||
The balances of the collateralized receivables and secured borrowings fluctuate. The balances increase as additional notes receivable are transferred and exchanged for cash proceeds. The balances are reduced as the related collateralized receivables are collected from the customers, or as the underlying collateral is repurchased. The change in the aggregate gross principal balance of the collateralized receivables is as follows (in thousands): | ||||

Ending balance | $ | 127,891 | ||
The collateralized receivables earn interest income, and the secured borrowings accrue interest expense at the same interest rates. The amount of interest income and expense recognized was $3.0 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |

Variable interest entities ("VIEs") that are consolidated include Rudgate Village SPE, LLC, Rudgate Clinton SPE, LLC, Rudgate Clinton Estates SPE, LLC (the “Rudgate Borrowers”) and Wildwood Village Mobile Home Park ("Wildwood"). We evaluated our arrangements with these properties under the guidance set forth in FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. We concluded that the Rudgate Borrowers and Wildwood qualify as VIEs as we are the primary beneficiary and hold controlling financial interests in these entities due to our power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities, as well as our obligation to absorb the most significant losses and our rights to receive significant benefits from these entities. As such, the transactions and accounts of these VIEs are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||

Qualification as a REIT involves the satisfaction of numerous requirements (some on an annual and quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations, and involves the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control. In addition, frequent changes occur in the area of REIT taxation which requires us to continually monitor our tax status. We analyzed the various REIT tests and confirmed that we continued to qualify as a REIT for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. | |
As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes at the corporate level on the ordinary taxable income we distribute to our stockholders as dividends. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, our taxable income could be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax). Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local income taxes and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income. | |
SHS, our taxable REIT subsidiary, is subject to U.S. federal income taxes. Our deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the bases of such assets and liabilities as measured by tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance to the amount where realization is more likely than not assured after considering all available evidence. Our temporary differences primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards and depreciation. A federal deferred tax asset of $1.0 million is included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. | |
We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2015 and 2014. We expect no significant increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits due to changes in tax positions within one year of March 31, 2015. | |
We classify certain state taxes as income taxes for financial reporting purposes. We record Texas Margin Tax as income tax in our financial statements, and we recorded a provision for state income taxes of approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | ||||||||||||||||||||
Our objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage exposure to interest rate movements thereby minimizing the effect of interest rate changes and the effect it could have on future cash flows. Interest rate caps are used to accomplish this objective. We require hedging derivative instruments to be highly effective in reducing the risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. We formally designate any instrument that meets these hedging criteria as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The following table provides the terms of our interest rate derivative contracts that were in effect as of March 31, 2015: | |||||||||||||||||||||
Type | Purpose | Effective Date | Maturity Date | Notional | Based on | Variable Rate | Fixed Rate | Spread | Effective Fixed Rate | ||||||||||||

In April 2015, our interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $152.4 million expired. We renewed our agreement with a notional amount of $150.1 million, a rate of 9.0% and a maturity date of 4/1/2018. | |||||||||||||||||||||
In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, we have recorded the fair value of our derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the balance sheet. See Note 16 for information on the determination of fair value for the derivative instruments. The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments included in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||||||

These valuation adjustments will only be realized under certain situations. For example, if we terminate contracts prior to maturity or if derivatives fail to qualify for hedge accounting, we would need to amortize amounts currently included in accumulated other comprehensive income into interest expense over the terms of the derivative contracts. We did not terminate our agreement prior to maturity, and it did not fail to qualify for hedge accounting; therefore, the net of valuation adjustments through the maturity date approximated zero. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Our hedges were highly effective and had minimal effect on income. The following tables summarize the impact of derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 as recorded in the consolidated statements of operations (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||||||

Our financial derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and the effective portion of the gain or loss on such hedges are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in our consolidated balance sheets. | |||||||||||||||||||||
To the extent that the hedging relationship is not effective or does not qualify as a cash flow hedge, the ineffective portion is recorded in interest expense. Hedges that received designated hedge accounting treatment are evaluated for effectiveness at the time that they are designated as well as through the hedging period.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||||||||||
Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, derivative instruments, and debt. | |||||||||||||||||
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires the use of observable market data, when available, and prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in the following categories: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1—Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations in which all observable inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3—Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, including assumptions developed by us. | |||||||||||||||||
We utilize fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. | |||||||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments | |||||||||||||||||
The derivative instruments held by us are interest rate cap agreements for which quoted market prices are indirectly available. For those derivatives, we use model-derived valuations in which all observable inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets provided by brokers or dealers to determine the fair values of derivative instruments on a recurring basis (Level 2). See Note 15 for Derivative Instruments. | |||||||||||||||||
Installment Notes on Manufactured Homes | |||||||||||||||||
The net carrying value of the installment notes on manufactured homes estimates the fair value as the interest rates in the portfolio are comparable to current prevailing market rates (Level 2). See Note 5 for Installment Notes. | |||||||||||||||||
Long Term Debt and Lines of Credit | |||||||||||||||||
The fair value of long term debt (excluding the secured borrowing) is based on the estimates of management and on rates currently quoted and rates currently prevailing for comparable loans and instruments of comparable maturities (Level 2). See Note 9 for Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit. | |||||||||||||||||
Collateralized Receivables and Secured Borrowing | |||||||||||||||||
The fair value of these financial instruments offset each other as our collateralized receivables represent a transfer of financial assets and the cash proceeds received from these transactions have been classified as a secured borrowing in the consolidated balance sheets. The net carrying value of the collateralized receivables estimates the fair value as the interest rates in the portfolio are comparable to current prevailing market rates (Level 2). See Note 4 for Collateralized Receivables and Secured Borrowing. | |||||||||||||||||

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs," ("ASU 2015-03"). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. | |
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, "Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis," ("ASU 2015-02"). ASU 2015-02 eliminates the deferral of FAS 167, which has allowed entities with interests in certain investment funds to follow the previous consolidation guidance in FIN 46(R), and makes other changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model. While the guidance is aimed at asset managers, it will affect all reporting entities that have variable interests in other legal entities (e.g., limited partnerships, similar entities and certain corporations). In some cases, consolidation conclusions will change. In other cases, reporting entities will need to provide additional disclosures about entities that currently aren’t considered VIEs but will be considered VIEs under the new guidance provided they have a variable interest in those VIEs. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. |

Berger Acquisition | |
In April 2015, we completed the previously announced acquisition of six MH communities for total consideration of $256.2 million. The acquisition included over 3,130 developed sites and expansion potential of approximately 380 sites. Included in the total consideration paid was 371,808 common OP units and 340,206 newly created Series C Preferred Units. Distributions will be paid on the Series C preferred OP units at a rate equal to 4.0% per year from the closing until the second anniversary of the date of issuance, 4.5% per year during the following three years, and 5.0% per year thereafter. At the holder’s option, each Series C preferred OP unit will be exchangeable into 1.111 shares of the Company’s common stock and holders of Series C preferred OP units will not have any voting or consent rights. We also assumed $157.3 million of mortgage debt on the communities with a weighted average interest rate of 5.17% and a weighted average remaining term of 6.3 years. |
