FirstBank has been an excellent partner and we are proud to grow our banking relationship with them. Over the past few years, we have made great strides in obtaining lender acceptance of our rental homes. We have now closed on rental home loans with Fannie Mae and entered into revolving lines of credit secured by rental homes with FirstBank and Triad Financial Services. We look forward to sourcing additional capital through the financing of our rental homes.”

“Rental homes in our communities have proven to provide a durable and stable income stream which is evidenced through our strong collection rate of over 98% and occupancy rate of approximately 94%.
