interest-only loan financial
"This interest-only loan is at a fixed rate of 6.03% with a 10-year term."
An interest-only loan is a debt where the borrower pays only the interest charges for a set period, with the original amount borrowed (the principal) due later as a single payment or in a new repayment schedule. For investors, this matters because it boosts short-term cash flow for the borrower but raises the risk of larger future payments or default, which affects credit quality, bank earnings and the value of related securities—think of it as renting money now and facing a big bill later.

"UMH Properties, Inc., which was organized in 1968, is a public equity REIT"

"through the implementation of our rental home program, increased occupancy to 95%"
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock financial
"6.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.10 par value"
Cumulative redeemable preferred stock is a type of investment that gives shareholders priority over common stockholders to receive dividends and get their money back if the company is sold or closes. If the company misses dividend payments, it must pay them later before any dividends can go to other shareholders. This makes it a more secure and flexible option for investors seeking steady income with some ability to redeem their shares in the future.

UMH PROPERTIES, INC. SECURES NEW FANNIE MAE MORTGAGE

 

FREEHOLD, NJ, August 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — UMH Properties, Inc. (NYSE: UMH) (TASE: UMH) today announced that on August 28, 2026 it secured a new Fannie Mae mortgage for one of its communities containing 267 sites, through Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., for total proceeds of approximately $10.2 million. This interest-only loan is at a fixed rate of 6.03% with a 10-year term. Earlier this year, we paid off the existing $2.8 million mortgage on this community, generating $7.4 million in additional proceeds. The proceeds will be used to invest in additional acquisitions, expansions, rental homes and repay higher interest rate debt on a short-term basis.

 

Samuel A. Landy, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented “We are proud to complete another successful financing with Fannie Mae and Wells Fargo. Our long-term value-added business plan generates substantial increases in community value which we can realize through refinancing and investing the additional proceeds in new rental homes, expansions, acquisitions and other accretive uses. This community was acquired in 2014. At the time of the acquisition, the community was only 69% occupied. During our time of ownership, we have substantially renovated the community and through the implementation of our rental home program, increased occupancy to 95%. Additionally, we are planning an expansion at this community which will further increase its value. Our ability to acquire value-add communities, complete necessary improvements and increase occupancy through our sales and rental programs generates meaningful property level value.

 

“We are proud of our team and our lending partners at Wells Fargo and Fannie Mae for completing this transaction. We look forward to deploying this capital into our business, which will allow us to provide our Nation with additional affordable housing while generating significant long-term results for our shareholders.”

 

UMH Properties, Inc., which was organized in 1968, is a public equity REIT that currently owns and operates 145 manufactured home communities, containing approximately 27,100 developed home-sites, of which 11,200 contain rental homes, and over 1,000 self-storage units.

Included in the 145 communities are two communities in Florida, containing 363 sites, and one community in Pennsylvania, containing 113 sites, that UMH has an ownership interest in and operates through its joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate.
