| • | our ability to maintain historical rental rates and occupancy with respect to Properties currently owned or that we may acquire; | ||
| • | our assumptions about rental and home sales markets; | ||
| • | in the age-qualified Properties, home sales results could be impacted by the ability of potential homebuyers to sell their existing residences as well as by financial, credit and capital markets volatility; | ||
| • | results from home sales and occupancy will continue to be impacted by local economic conditions, lack of affordable manufactured home financing and competition from alternative housing options including site-built single-family housing; | ||
| • | impact of government intervention to stabilize site-built single family housing and not manufactured housing; | ||
| • | the completion of future acquisitions, if any, and timing with respect thereto and the effective integration and successful realization of cost savings; | ||
| • | ability to obtain financing or refinance existing debt on favorable terms or at all; | ||
| • | the effect of interest rates; |
| • | the dilutive effects of issuing additional common stock; | ||
| • | the effect of accounting for the sale of agreements to customers representing a right-to-use the Properties under the Codification Topic “Revenue Recognition”; and | ||
| • | other risks indicated from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
These forward-looking statements are based on management’s present expectations and beliefs
about future events. As with any projection or forecast, these statements are inherently
susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The Company is under no obligation to, and
