       Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that would
       occur if dilutive securities were exercised or converted into common
       stock. Convertible POP Units are excluded from the computations as their
       inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share in
       2001 and 2000.

                     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, 2001 and 2000

For the six months ended June 30, 2001, income before gain from property
dispositions, net and minority interests increased by 6.4 percent from $20.8
million to $22.1 million, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000.
The increase was due to increased revenues of $5.1 million while expenses
increased by $3.8 million.

Income from property increased by $3.1 million from $66.1 million to $69.2
million, or 4.8 percent, due to rent increases and other community revenues
($3.2 million) and acquisitions ($2.1 million), offset by a revenue reduction of
$2.2 million due to property dispositions.

Other income increased by $2.0 million from $6.0 million to $8.0 million due
primarily to an increase in interest income.

Property operating and maintenance expenses increased by $0.5 million from $13.9
million to $14.4 million, or 3.7 percent, representing general cost increases
($0.8 million) and acquisitions ($0.3 million) offset by an expense reduction of
$0.6 million due to property dispositions.

Real estate taxes increased by $0.1 million from $4.5 million to $4.6 million.

Property management expenses remained constant at approximately $1.4 million for
both periods representing 2.1 percent and 2.2 percent of income from property in
2001 and 2000, respectively.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.3 million from $2.0 million
to $2.3 million, representing 3.0 percent and 2.8 percent of total revenues in
2001 and 2000, respectively.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA", an
alternative financial performance measure that may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures reported by other companies, defined as total revenues
less property operating and maintenance, real estate taxes, property management,
and general and administrative expenses) increased by $4.3 million from $50.2
million to $54.5 million. EBITDA as a percent of revenues increased to 70.5
percent in 2001 compared to 69.6 percent in 2000.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.8 million from $15.2 million to
$16.1 million, or 5.6 percent, due primarily to the net additional investment in
rental properties.

Interest expense increased by $2.1 million from $14.2 million to $16.3 million,
or 14.9 percent, due primarily to financing additional investments in rental
property.

increases in rents and occupancy related charges including water and property
tax pass through.

Property operating expenses increased by $0.4 million from $12.5 million to
$12.9 million or 3.6 percent, due to increased occupancies and costs.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $10.8 million to $7.7 million at June 30,
2001 from $18.5 million at December 31, 2000 because cash used for financing and
investing activities exceeded cash provided by operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $10.2 million to $39.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $29.1 million for the
same period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to accounts payable and
other liabilities increasing by $4.0 million, other assets decreasing by $4.0
million and a $2.2 million increase in income before minority interests,
depreciation and amortization and gain from property dispositions, net.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $48.7 million to $7.8 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $56.5 million for the same
period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to a $21.9 million decrease in
investments in notes receivable, net, proceeds related to property dispositions
of $17.3 million and $15.3 million related to investments in and advances to
affiliates, offset by a $5.8 million increase in rental property acquisition
activities.

Net cash used in financing activities was $42.4 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 compared to $22.7 million provided by financing activities during
the same period in 2000. This change was primarily because of $74.5 million in
additional repayments on notes payable and other debt, treasury stock and
operating partnership unit purchases increasing by $5.8 million, distributions
increasing by $0.8 million, offset by $16.0 million in additional line of credit
borrowings.

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 equity or debt
securities, or interests in the Operating Partnership. 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 may also meet these short-term and
long-term requirements by utilizing its $125 million line of credit which bears
interest at LIBOR plus 1.0% and is due January 1, 2003.

At June 30, 2001, the Company's debt to total market capitalization approximated
36.1% (assuming conversion of all Common OP Units to shares of common stock and
including Preferred OP Units). The debt has a weighted average maturity of
approximately 5.9 years and a weighted average interest rate of 7.0%.

Recurring capital expenditures approximated $1.9 million and $2.0 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

OTHER
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as "net income (computed in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (or losses) from sales
of property, plus rental property depreciation and amortization, and after
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures." Industry
analysts consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of the operating
performance of an equity REIT primarily because the computation of FFO excludes
historical cost depreciation as an expense and thereby facilitates the
comparison of REITs which have different cost bases in their assets. Historical
cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real
estate assets diminishes predictably over time, whereas real estate values have
instead historically risen or fallen based upon market conditions. FFO does not
represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting
principles and is a supplemental measure of performance that does not replace
net income as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating
activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO is not intended as a
measure of a REIT's ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash
requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. The following table
calculates FFO for both basic and diluted purposes for the periods ended June
30, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands):

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q contains various "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the
Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe
harbors created thereby. The words "may", "will", "expect", "believe",
"anticipate", "should", "estimate", and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the
Company's current views with respect to future events and financial performance,
but are based upon current assumptions regarding the Company's operations,
future results and prospects, and are subject to many uncertainties and factors
relating to the Company's operations and business environment which may cause
the actual results of the Company to be materially different from any future
results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Please see the
section entitled "Factors That May Affect Future Results" of the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2000 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for a list of uncertainties and factors.

Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) changes in the
general economic climate; (ii) increased competition in the geographic areas in
which the Company owns and operates manufactured housing communities; (iii)
changes in government laws and regulations affecting manufactured housing
communities; and (iv) the ability of the Company to continue to identify,
negotiate and acquire manufactured housing communities and/or vacant land which
may be developed into manufactured housing communities on terms favorable to the
Company. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") approved
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business
Combinations and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 141
requires, among other things, that the purchase method of accounting for
business combinations be used for all business combinations initiated after June
30, 2001. SFAS 142 addresses the accounting for goodwill and other intangible
assets subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS 142 requires, among other things,
that goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets no longer be
amortized and that such assets be tested for impairment at least annually. SFAS
142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact these standards will have on its financial
statements.

In June 1998, FASB issued SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging activities. The Company adopted SFAS 133 as amended
by SFAS 137 and 138 effective January 1, 2001. There was no effect from the
application of SFAS 133 on the earnings and financial position of the Company as
the Company had no derivative instruments at June 30, 2001 and December 31,
2000.
