ERLANGER, Ky., April 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Flagship
Communities Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) (TSX: MHC.U) has
been named Land-Lease Community of the Year – East: Waterford
Pointe by the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI). The award was
presented to Flagship officials on Monday,
April 11, during the MHI 2022 Congress and Expo in
Orlando, Florida. Waterford Pointe
is a 317-home community located in Evansville, Indiana.
In 2005 an F-3 tornado ripped through Waterford Pointe. The
tornado struck during the middle of the night and by the time the
sun rose the next morning, 150 of the over 300 homes were
destroyed. Flagship acquired the community in 2016 with the
goal of bringing the community to life again, erasing the stigma
associated with a community that had been devastated by a natural
disaster.
"We are proud of our Waterford Pointe community and the effort
that our staff has put into the turnaround that has occurred since
the devastating tornado," said Flagship CEO Kurt Keeney. "The satisfaction of our residents
at Waterford along with our
community partners have made it a wonderful place for families and
seniors to reside. We thank MHI and its leaders for this
great honor."
MHI's Congress & Expo is the industry's premier event for
manufactured housing professionals. With top quality educational
programs led by dynamic speakers, networking receptions with the
industry's most successful professionals, and an exhibit floor with
over 100 companies showcasing the latest innovations in
manufactured housing products and technology.
