Demand for UMH Properties' affordable manufactured housing is consistently strong rather than highly seasonal. Revenue growth was previously constrained by supply issues, not a lack of demand. The company has a significant pipeline of vacant sites and expects a 5% annual rent increase, indicating ongoing strong demand. The manufactured housing sector exhibits a long growth cycle, suggesting a resilient and less seasonal demand profile.
