We are very pleased with our relationships with Wells Fargo Bank and Freddie Mac,” said UMH president and CEO Sam Landy.

We appreciate their continued support. Not only will this new loan save us approximately $350,000 annually on our interest expense, but it demonstrates the increasing value of our communities and the financial flexibility of our company, allowing us to further execute our long-term growth strategy.
