FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Except
for statements of historical fact, some information in this
document contains “forward-looking statements” that
involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these
forward-looking statements by words such as
“anticipate,” “believe,”
“could,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“intend,” “may,” “should,”
“will,” “would” or similar words. The
statements that contain these or similar words should be read
carefully because these statements discuss our future expectations,
contain projections of our future results of operations or of our
financial position, or state other forward-looking information. We
believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations
to our investors. However, there may be events in the future that
we are not able accurately to predict or control. Further, we urge
you to be cautious of the forward-looking statements which are
contained in this registration statement because they involve
risks, uncertainties and other factors affecting our operations,
market growth, service, products and licenses. The factors listed
in the sections captioned “Risk Factors” and
“Description of Business,” as well as other cautionary
language in this registration statement and events in the future
may cause our actual results and achievements, whether expressed or
implied, to differ materially from the expectations we describe in
our forward-looking statements. The occurrence of any of the events
described as risk factors or other future events could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial position. Since our common stock is considered a
“penny stock,” for forward-looking statements provided
in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”).
Item 1. Business.
Our Company
Manufactured
Housing Properties Inc., together with its affiliates
(collectively, “We,” the “Company,” and
“MHPC”), acquires, owns, and operates manufactured
housing communities. The Company earns income from leasing
manufactured home sites to tenants who own their manufactured home
and the rental of Company-owned manufactured homes to residents of
the communities.
As of December 31,
2017, the Company had a total of 100 Company-owned manufactured
homes.
As of
December 31, 2017, the Company owned and operated seven
manufactured housing communities containing approximately 440
developed sites. The communities are located in North Carolina,
South Carolina, and Tennessee.
Manufactured housing communities are residential
developments designed and improved for the placement of detached,
single-family manufactured homes that are produced off-site and
installed and set on residential sites within the community. The
owner of a manufactured home leases the site on which it is located
and the lessee of a manufactured home leases both the home and site
on which the home is located.
Manufactured
housing is one of the only non-subsidized affordable housing
options in the U.S. Demand for housing affordability continues to
increase, but supply remains static, as there are virtually no new
manufactured housing communities being developed. MHPC is committed
to be an industry leader in providing this affordable housing
option and an improved level of service to its residents, while
producing an attractive and stable risk adjusted return to our
investors.
The Manufactured Housing Community Industry
A
manufactured housing community is a land-lease community designed
and improved with home sites for the placement of manufactured
homes and includes related improvements and amenities. Each
homeowner in a manufactured
housing
community leases from the community a site on which a home is
located. The manufactured
housing
community owner owns the underlying land, utility connections,
streets, lighting, driveways, common area amenities, and other
capital improvements and is responsible for enforcement of
community guidelines and maintenance of the community. Generally,
each homeowner is responsible for the maintenance of his or her
home and upkeep of his or her leased site. In some cases, customers
may rent homes with the community owner’s maintaining
ownership and responsibility for the maintenance and upkeep of the
home. This option provides flexibility for customers seeking a more
affordable, shorter-term housing option and enables the community
owner to meet a broader demand for housing and improve occupancy
and cash flow.
We
believe that manufactured
housing
communities have several characteristics that make them an
attractive investment when compared to certain other types of real
estate, particularly multifamily, including:
●
Significant Barriers to
Entry
.
We believe
that the supply of new manufactured
housing
communities will be constrained due to significant barriers to
entry in the industry, including: (i) various zoning restrictions
and negative zoning biases against manufactured
housing
communities; substantial upfront costs associated with the
development of infrastructure, amenities and other offsite
improvements required by various governmental agencies, and (iii) a
significant length of time before lease-up and revenues can
commence.
●
Diminishing Supply
.
Supply is decreasing due to redevelopment of older
parks.
●
Large Demographic Group of
Potential Customers
.
We consider households earning between $25,000 and $50,000 per year
to be our core customer base. This demographic group represents
about 43 percent of overall U.S. households, according to 2016 U.S.
Census data.
●
Stable Resident
Base
.
We believe
that manufactured
housing
communities tend to achieve and maintain a stable rate of
occupancy, due to the following factors: (i) residents generally
own their own homes; moving a manufactured home from one community
to another involves substantial cost and effort and often results
in the abandonment of on-site improvements made by the resident
such as decks, garages, carports, and landscaping; and (iii)
residents enjoy a sense of community inherent in
manufactured
housing
communities similar to residential subdivisions.
●
Fragmented Ownership of
Communities
.
Manufactured
housing
community ownership in the United States is highly fragmented, with
a majority of manufactured
housing
communities owned by individuals. The top five manufactured
housing
community owners control approximately 7% of manufactured
housing
community home sites.
●
Low Recurring Capital
Requirements
.
Although manufactured
housing
community owners are responsible for maintaining the infrastructure
of the community, each homeowner is responsible for the upkeep of
his or her own home and home site, thereby reducing the
manufactured
housing
community owner’s ongoing maintenance expenses and capital
requirements.
●
Affordable Homeowner
Lifestyle
.
Manufactured
housing
communities offer an affordable lifestyle typically unavailable in
apartments, including lack of common walls, a yard for each
resident, the ability to park by the front door, and a sense of
community.
.
Organization
We
originally incorporated in the State of Nevada as Frontier
Staffing, Inc. on September 3, 2003. Since our incorporation, we
have experienced several name changes and have been engaged in
several different business endeavors. On October 12, 2017, Mobile
Home Rental Holdings LLC, a North Carolina limited liability
company which engaged in acquiring and operating manufactured
housing properties (“MHRH”), merged with and into the
Company. Mobile Home Rental Holding, LLC was incorporated on
April 26, 2016. In connection with the merger, the name of
the company was changed to Manufactured Housing Properties Inc.,
the former management of MHRH became the management of the Company
and the former business of MHRH became the business of the
Company.
Our Business Strategy
Our
business strategy is to acquire both stable and undervalued and
underperforming manufactured housing properties that have current
income. We believe that we can enhance value through our
professional asset and property management.
Our property
management services are mainly comprised of tenant contracts and
leasing, marketing vacancies, community maintenance, enforce
community policies, establish and collect rent, and pay vendors,
Our lot and manufactured home leases are generally for one month
and auto renews monthly for an additional
month.
Our
investment mission on behalf of our stockholders is to deliver an
attractive risk-adjusted return with a focus on value creation,
capital preservation, and growth. In our ongoing search for
acquisition opportunities we target and evaluate manufactured
housing communities nationwide.
We are
one of four public companies in the manufactured housing sector,
but we are the only one not organized as a REIT, thereby giving us
flexibility to focus on growth through reinvestment of income and
employing higher leverage upon acquisition than the REITs
traditionally utilize due to market held norms around 50-60%. This
can give us a competitive advantage when bidding for assets.
Additionally, due to our small size, non-institutional sized deals
of less than 150 sites, which have less bidders and lower prices,
are accretive to our balance sheet.
As
of December 31, 2017, the Company had a total of ten employees, and
9 full time employees.
Recent Developments
During
the fourth quarter of 2017, we acquired five additional
manufactured housing communities totaling approximately 300
developed home sites for a total of approximately 440 developed
home sites owned to date; and have approximately 270 pads in 3
parks in the pipeline.
The
3 parks in the pipeline are only under consideration for future
acquisitions and are not under any agreements. The 3 parks in the
pipeline would exceed 10% of our total assets as of December 31,
2017.
Reports to Security Holders
We will file reports with the SEC. We will be a reporting
company and will comply with the requirements of the Exchange
Act.
The
public may read and copy any materials we have filed with the SEC
in the SEC’s Public Reference Section, Room 1580, 100 F
Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain
information on the operation of the Public Reference Section by
calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Additionally, the SEC maintains
an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information
statements, and other information regarding issuers that file
electronically with the SEC, which can be found at
http://www.sec.gov.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The
following risk factors address the material risks concerning our
business. If any of the risks discussed in this report were to
occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of
operation and our ability to service our debt and make
distributions to our stockholders could be materially and adversely
affected and the market price per share of our stock could decline
significantly. Some statements in this Registration Statement,
including statements in the following risk factors, constitute
forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled
“Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements.”
Risks Related to Global Financial Conditions
Disruptions
in financial markets could affect our ability to obtain financing
on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on us and the
market price of our securities.
Since 2008, the United States stock and credit
markets have experienced significant price volatility, dislocations
and liquidity disruptions, which have caused market prices of many
stocks and debt securities to fluctuate substantially and the
spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These
circumstances have materially impacted liquidity in the financial
markets, making terms for certain financings less attractive, and
in certain cases have resulted in the unavailability of certain
types of financing. War in certain Middle Eastern countries, the
slowing of the Chinese economy and the recent decline in petroleum
prices, among other factors, have added to the uncertainty in the
capital markets. Uncertainty in the stock and credit markets may
negatively impact our ability to access additional financing at
reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to
acquire properties and otherwise pursue our investment strategy. A
prolonged downturn in the stock or credit markets may cause us to
seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing
and may require us to adjust our investment strategy accordingly.
These types of events in the stock and credit markets may make it
more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the
issuance of the common stock, preferred stock or debt securities.
The potential disruptions in the financial markets may have a
material adverse effect on the market value of our securities, and
the return we receive on our properties and investments, as well as
other unknown adverse effects on us or the economy in
general.
Real Estate Industry Risks
General
economic conditions and the concentration of our properties in
North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee may affect our
ability to generate sufficient revenue.
The market and economic conditions in our current
markets may significantly affect manufactured housing occupancy or
rental rates. Occupancy and rental rates, in turn, may
significantly affect our revenues, and if our communities do not
generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses,
including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and
ability to pay or refinance our debt obligations could be adversely
affected. As a result of the current geographic concentration of
our properties in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee, we
are exposed to the risks of downturns in the local economy or other
local real estate market conditions that could adversely affect
occupancy rates, rental rates, and property values in these
markets.
Other
factors that may affect general economic conditions or local real
estate conditions include:
●
the
national and local economic climate which may be adversely affected
by, among other factors, plant closings, and industry
slowdowns;
●
local real
estate market conditions such as the oversupply of manufactured
home sites or a reduction in demand for manufactured home sites in
an area;
●
the
number of repossessed homes in a particular market;
●
the
lack of an established dealer network;
●
the
rental market which may limit the extent to which rents may be
increased to meet increased expenses without decreasing occupancy
rates;
●
the
safety, convenience and attractiveness of our properties and the
neighborhoods where they are located;
●
zoning or other
regulatory restrictions;
●
competition from
other available manufactured housing communities and alternative
forms of housing (such as apartment buildings and single-family
homes);
●
our
ability to provide adequate management, maintenance and
insurance;
●
increased
operating costs, including insurance premiums, real estate taxes
and utilities; and
●
the
enactment of rent control laws or laws taxing the owners of
manufactured homes.
Our
income would also be adversely affected if tenants were unable to
pay rent or if sites were unable to be rented on favorable terms.
If we were unable to promptly renew the leases for a significant
number of sites, or if the rental rates upon such renewal or
reletting were significantly lower than expected rates, then our
business and results of operations could be adversely affected. In
addition, certain expenditures associated with each property (such
as real estate taxes and maintenance costs) generally are not
reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the
property.
We may be
unable to compete with our larger competitors, which may in turn
adversely affect our profitability.
The real estate business is highly competitive. We
compete for manufactured housing community investments with
numerous other real estate entities, such as individuals,
corporations, REITs and other enterprises engaged in real estate
activities. In many cases, the competing concerns may be larger and
better financed than we are, making it difficult for us to secure
new manufactured housing community investments. Competition among
private and institutional purchasers of manufactured housing
community investments has led to increases in the purchase prices
paid for manufactured housing communities and consequent higher
fixed costs. To the extent we are unable to effectively compete in
the marketplace, our business may be adversely
affected.
Costs
associated with taxes and regulatory compliance may reduce our
revenue.
We are subject to
significant regulation that inhibits our activities and may
increase our costs. Local zoning and use laws, environmental
statutes and other governmental requirements may restrict
expansion, rehabilitation and reconstruction activities. These
regulations may prevent us from taking advantage of economic
opportunities. Legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities
Act may require us to modify our properties at a substantial cost
and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an
award of damages to private litigants. Future legislation may
impose additional requirements. We cannot predict what requirements
may be enacted or amended or what costs we will incur to comply
with such requirements. Costs resulting from changes in real estate
laws, income taxes, service or other taxes may adversely affect our
funds from operations and our ability to pay or refinance our debt.
Similarly, changes in laws increasing the potential liability for
environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the
restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in
significant unanticipated expenditures, which would adversely
affect our business and results of operations.
Rent
control legislation may harm our ability to increase
rents.
State and local
rent control laws in certain jurisdictions may limit our ability to
increase rents and to recover increases in operating expenses and
the costs of capital improvements. We may purchase additional
properties in markets that are either subject to rent control or in
which rent-limiting legislation exists or may be
enacted.
Our
investments are concentrated in the manufactured
housing/residential sector and our business would be adversely
affected by an economic downturn in that
sector.
Our investments in
real estate assets are concentrated in the manufactured
housing/residential sector. This concentration may expose us to the
risk of economic downturns.
Environmental
liabilities could affect our profitability.
Under various federal, state and local laws,
as well as local ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator
of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of
certain hazardous substances at, on, under or in such property, as
well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or
toxic substances. Such laws often impose such liability without
regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the
presence of such hazardous substances. A conveyance of the
property, therefore, does not relieve the owner or operator from
liability. As a current or former owner and operator of real
estate, we may be required by law to investigate and clean up
hazardous substances released at or from the properties we
currently own or operate or have in the past owned or operated. We
may also be liable to the government or to third parties for
property damage, investigation costs and cleanup costs. In
addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated
site in favor of the government for damages and costs the
government incurs in connection with the contamination.
Contamination may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease
real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral.
Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous
substances also may be liable for the costs of removal or
remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility
owned or operated by another person. In addition, certain
environmental laws impose liability for the management and disposal
of asbestos-containing materials and for the release of such
materials into the air. These laws may provide for third parties to
seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for
personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials. In
connection with the ownership, operation, management, and
development of real properties, we may be considered an owner or
operator of such properties and, therefore, are potentially liable
for removal or remediation costs, and also may be liable for
governmental fines and injuries to persons and property. When we
arrange for the treatment or disposal of hazardous substances at
landfills or other facilities owned by other persons, we may be
liable for the removal or remediation costs at such facilities. We
are not aware of any environmental liabilities relating to our
investment properties that would have a material adverse effect on
our business, assets, or results of operations. However, we cannot
assure you that environmental liabilities will not arise in the
future and that such liabilities will not have a material adverse
effect on our business, assets or results of
operation.
Of
the seven manufactured housing communities we currently operate,
four are on well and septic systems. At these locations, we are
subject to compliance with monthly, quarterly and yearly testing
for contaminants as outlined by each state’s Department of
Environmental Protection Agencies. Currently, we are not subject to
radon or asbestos monitoring requirements.
Additionally,
in connection with the management of the properties or upon
acquisition or financing of a property, we authorize the
preparation of Phase I or similar environmental reports (which
involves general inspections without soil sampling or ground water
analysis) completed by independent environmental consultants. Based
on such environmental reports and our ongoing review of its
properties, as of the date of this Registration Statement, we are
not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of our
properties that we believe would be reasonably likely to have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of
operations. These reports, however, cannot reflect conditions
arising after the studies were completed, and no assurances can be
given that existing environmental studies reveal all environmental
liabilities, that any prior owner or operator of a property or
neighboring owner or operator did not create any material
environmental condition not known to us, or that a material
environmental condition does not otherwise exist with respect to
any one property or more than one property.
Actions by
our competitors may decrease or prevent increases in the occupancy
and rental rates of our properties which could adversely affect our
business.
We compete with
other owners and operators of manufactured housing community
properties, some of whom own properties similar to ours in the same
submarkets in which our properties are located. The number of
competitive manufactured housing community properties in a
particular area could have a material adverse effect on our ability
to lease sites and increase rents charged at our properties or at
any newly acquired properties. In addition, other forms of
multi-family residential properties, such as private and federally
funded or assisted multi-family housing projects and single-family
housing, provide housing alternatives to potential tenants of
manufactured housing communities. If our competitors offer housing
at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental
rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose potential
tenants, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below
those we currently charge in order to retain tenants when our
tenants’ leases expire. As a result, our financial condition,
cash flow, cash available for distribution, and ability to satisfy
our debt service obligations could be materially adversely
affected.
Losses in
excess of our insurance coverage or uninsured losses could
adversely affect our cash flow.
We generally maintain insurance policies related
to our business, including casualty, general liability and other
policies covering business operations, employees and assets.
However, we may be required to bear all losses that are not
adequately covered by insurance. In addition, there are certain
losses that are not generally insured because it is not
economically feasible to insure against them, including losses due
to riots or acts of war. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess
of insured limits occurs with respect to one or more of our
properties, then we could lose the capital we invested in the
properties, as well as the anticipated profits and cash flow from
the properties and, in the case of debt that carries recourse to
us, we would remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other
financial obligations related to the properties. Although we
believe that our insurance programs are adequate, no assurance can
be given that we will not incur losses in excess of its insurance
coverage, or that we will be able to obtain insurance in the future
at acceptable levels and reasonable cost.
We may not
be able to integrate or finance our acquisitions and our
acquisitions may not perform as expected.
We acquire and intend to continue to acquire
manufactured housing communities on a select basis. Our acquisition
activities and their success are subject to the following
risks:
●
we
may be unable to acquire a desired property because of competition
from other well capitalized real estate investors, including both
publicly traded REITs and institutional investment
funds;
●
even
if we enter into an acquisition agreement for a property, it is
usually subject to customary conditions for closing, including
completion of due diligence investigations to our satisfaction,
which may not be satisfied;
●
even
if we are able to acquire a desired property, competition from
other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase
price;
●
we
may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable
terms;
●
acquired
properties may fail to perform as expected;
●
acquired
properties may be located in new markets where we face risks
associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the
local economy, lack of business relationships in the area and
unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures;
and
●
we
may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new
acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of
properties, into our existing operations.
If
any of the above were to occur, our business and results of
operations could be adversely affected.
In
addition, we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and
without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect
to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were to be
asserted against us based on ownership of those properties, we
might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could
adversely affect our cash flow.
We may be
unable to sell properties when appropriate because real estate
investments are illiquid.
Real estate investments generally cannot be sold
quickly and, therefore, will tend to limit our ability to vary our
property portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or
other conditions. The inability to respond promptly to changes in
the performance of our property portfolio could adversely affect
our financial condition and ability to service our debt and make
distributions to our stockholders.
Financing Risks
We face
risks generally associated with our debt
.
We finance a portion of our investments in
properties through debt. We are subject to the risks normally
associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash
flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal
and interest. In addition, debt creates other risks,
including:
●
failure to repay
or refinance existing debt as it matures, which may result in
forced disposition of assets on disadvantageous terms;
●
refinancing
terms less favorable than the terms of existing debt;
and
●
failure to meet
required payments of principal and/or interest.
We face
risks related to “balloon payments” and
re-financings.
Certain of
our mortgages will have significant outstanding principal balances
on their maturity dates, commonly known as “balloon
payments.” There can be no assurance that we will be able to
refinance the debt on favorable terms or at all. To the extent we
cannot refinance debt on favorable terms or at all, we may be
forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms or pay
higher interest rates, either of which would have an adverse impact
on our financial performance and ability to service debt and make
distributions.
We may
become more highly leveraged, resulting in increased risk of
default on our obligations and an increase in debt service
requirements that could adversely affect our financial condition
and results of operations and our ability to pay
distributions.
We have
incurred, and may continue to incur, indebtedness in furtherance of
our activities. We could become more highly leveraged, resulting in
an increased risk of default on our obligations and in an increase
in debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our
financial condition and results of operations and our ability to
pay distributions to stockholders.
Covenants
in our credit agreements could limit our flexibility and adversely
affect our financial condition
.
The terms of our various credit agreements
and other indebtedness require us to comply with a number of
customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt
service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance
coverage. These covenants may limit our flexibility in our
operations, and breaches of these covenants could result in
defaults under the instruments governing the applicable
indebtedness even if we had satisfied our payment obligations. If
we were to default under our credit agreements, our financial
condition would be adversely affected.
A change in
the United States government policy regarding to the Federal
National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) could impact our financial
condition.
Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac are a major source of financing for the manufactured
housing real estate sector. We could depend on Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac to finance growth by purchasing or guarantying
manufactured housing community loans. In February 2011, the Obama
Administration released a report to Congress that included options,
among others, to gradually shrink and eventually shut down Fannie
Mae and Freddie Mac. We do not know when or if Fannie Mae or
Freddie Mac will restrict their support of lending to our real
estate sector or to us in particular. A final decision by the
government to eliminate Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or reduce their
acquisitions or guarantees of our mortgage loans, may adversely
affect interest rates, capital availability and our ability to
refinance our existing mortgage obligations as they come due and
obtain additional long-term financing for the acquisition of
additional communities on favorable terms or at
all.
Other Risks
We may not
be able to obtain adequate cash to fund our
business.
Our business
requires access to adequate cash to finance our operations,
distributions, capital expenditures, debt service obligations,
development and redevelopment costs and property acquisition costs,
if any. We expect to generate the cash to be used for these
purposes primarily with operating cash flow, borrowings under
secured and unsecured loans, proceeds from sales of strategically
identified assets and, when market conditions permit, through the
issuance of debt and equity securities from time to time. We may
not be able to generate sufficient cash to fund our business,
particularly if we are unable to renew leases, lease vacant space
or re-lease space as leases expire according to our
expectations.
The report
of our independent registered public accounting firm expresses
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern.
Our auditors
have indicated in their report on the Company’s financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 that
conditions exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern due to our recurring losses from
operations and substantial decline in our working capital. A
“going concern” opinion could impair our ability to
finance our operations through the sale of equity,
incurring debt, or
other financing alternatives. Our ability to continue as a going
concern will depend upon the availability and terms of future
funding, continued growth in operating
activities.
We have one
stockholder that can single-handedly control the
Company
. Our largest
stockholder is Gvest Real Estate Capital LLC, an entity whose sole
owner is Raymond M. Gee, the Chairman of our Board of Directors and
our President and Chief Executive Officer. At present, Gvest Real
Estate Capital owns 86.45% of our total issued and outstanding
common stock. Under Nevada law, this ownership position provides
Mr. Gee with the almost unrestricted ability to control the
business, management and strategic direction of the Company. If Mr.
Gee choses to exercise this control, his decisions regarding the
Company could be detrimental to, or not in the best interests of
the Company and its other stockholders.
We are
dependent on key personnel.
Our executive and other senior officers have a
significant role in our success. Our ability to retain our
management group or to attract suitable replacements should any
members of the management group leave depends on the competitive
nature of the employment market. The loss of services from key
members of the management group or a limitation in their
availability could adversely affect our financial condition and
cash flow. Further, such a loss could be negatively perceived in
the capital markets.
Our management is
inexperienced in running a public entity.
With the exception of Michael Z. Anise, our Chief
Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary and a Director, whose
experience with operation and management of public entities is
limited, our management does not have prior experience with the
operation and management of a public entity. As a result, they will
be learning as they proceed and may be forced to rely more heavily
on the expertise of outside professionals than they might
otherwise, which in turn could lead to higher legal and accounting
costs and possible securities law compliance
issues.
We may
amend our business policies without stockholder
approval
.
Our Board of Directors determines our growth,
investment, financing, capitalization, borrowing, operations and
distributions policies. Although our Board of Directors has no
intention at present to change or reverse any of these policies,
they may be amended or revised without notice to stockholders.
Accordingly, stockholders may not have control over changes in our
policies. We cannot assure you that changes in our policies will
serve fully the interests of all stockholders.
The market
value of our preferred and common stock could decrease based on our
performance and market perception and conditions
.
The market value of our preferred and common stock
may be based primarily upon the market’s perception of our
growth potential and current and future cash dividends, and may be
secondarily based upon the real estate market value of our
underlying assets. The market price of our preferred and common
stock is influenced by their respective distributions relative to
market interest rates. Rising interest rates may lead potential
buyers of our stock to expect a higher distribution rate, which
would adversely affect the market price of our stock. In addition,
rising interest rates would result in increased expense, thereby
adversely affecting cash flow and our ability to service our
indebtedness and pay distributions.
We cannot
assure you that we will be able to pay distributions
regularly.
Our ability to
pay distributions in the future is dependent on our ability to
operate profitably and to generate cash from our operations and the
operations of our subsidiaries. We cannot guarantee that we will be
able to pay distributions on a regular quarterly basis in the
future.
Future
terrorist attacks and military conflicts could have a material
adverse effect on general economic conditions, consumer confidence
and market liquidity.
Among other things, it is possible that interest
rates may be affected by these events. An increase in interest
rates may increase our costs of borrowing, leading to a reduction
in our earnings. Terrorist acts affecting our properties could also
result in significant damages to, or loss of, our properties.
Additionally, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance
coverage on acceptable economic terms for losses resulting from
acts of terrorism. Our lenders may require that we carry terrorism
insurance even if we do not believe that this insurance is
necessary or cost effective. Should an act of terrorism result in
an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits, we could
lose capital invested in a property, as well as the anticipated
future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any
mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the
property. Any loss of these types would adversely affect our
financial condition.
We are
subject to risks arising from litigation.
We may become involved in litigation. Litigation
can be costly, and the results of litigation are often difficult to
predict. We may not have adequate insurance coverage or contractual
protection to cover costs and liability in the event we are sued,
and to the extent we resort to litigation to enforce our rights, we
may incur significant costs and ultimately be unsuccessful or
unable to recover amounts we believe are owed to us. We may have
little or no control of the timing of litigation, which presents
challenges to our strategic planning.
Geographic
concentration of our current property portfolio
.
The properties we own at present are located in
North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee
.
The
market and economic conditions in our current markets may
significantly affect manufactured housing occupancy or rental
rates. Occupancy and rental rates, in turn, may significantly
affect our revenues, and if our communities do not generate
revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt
service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and ability to pay
or refinance our debt obligations could be adversely affected. As a
result of the current geographic concentration of our properties,
we are exposed to the risks of downturns in the local economy or
other local real estate market conditions which could adversely
affect occupancy rates, rental rates, and property values in these
markets.
Item 2. Financial Information.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
This registration statement on Form 10 and other reports filed by
the Company from time to time with the SEC (collectively, the
“Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking
statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and
information currently available to, the Company’s management
as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s
management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and
speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the Filings, the
words “anticipate,” “believe,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “future,”
“intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these
terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the
Company’s management identify forward-looking statements.
Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with
respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties,
assumptions, and other factors, including the risks relating to the
Company’s business, industry, and the Company’s
operations and results of operations. Should one or more of these
risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ
significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated,
expected, intended, or planned.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in
the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot
guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or
achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the
securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend
to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these
statements to actual results.
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States
(“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to
make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that
the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are
reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that
these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These
estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial
statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be
affected to the extent there are material differences between these
estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting
treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by
GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its
application. There are also areas in which management’s
judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a
materially different result. The following discussion should be
read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this report.
The
Company prepares its financial statements under the accrual basis
of accounting, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”).
The
Company’s subsidiaries are all formed in the state of North
Carolina as Limited Liability Companies. The acquisition and date
of consolidation are as follows:

Revenues
Revenues
of $689,788 for the year ended December 31, 2017, increased by
$639,266 over revenues of $50,522 for the period from April 26,
2016 to December 31, 2016. The increase in Revenues between the
periods was primarily due to the acquisition of the Company’s
first manufactured housing community during the fourth quarter of
2016, and the acquisition of the second manufactured housing
community during the first quarter of 2017. Therefore, Revenues for
the year ended December 31, 2017 represents 5 parks acquired during
the fourth quarter, one park acquired during the second quarter,
and one park for the full 2017 period in which was acquired during
the fourth quarter of 2016.
Total
revenues from Company-owned manufactured homes were $124,460 and $0
for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the period from April 26,
2016 to December 31, 2016, respectively.
Community Operating Expenses
Community
operating expenses of $658,275, or 95% of revenues, for the year
ended December 31, 2017, increased by $619,588 over the period from
April 26, 2016 to December 31, 2016 of $38,687. The increase in
community operating expenses between the periods was primarily due
to the ramp up of operations from the Company’s first
acquisition in late 2016. Community operating expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2017 represents 5 parks acquired during the
fourth quarter, one park acquired during the second quarter, and
one park for the full 2017 period in which was acquired during the
fourth quarter of 2016.
Interest Expense
Interest
expense of $251,798 for the year ended December 31, 2017, increased
by $243,699 over interest expense of $8,099 for the period from
April 26, 2016 to December 31, 2016. The increase in interest
expense was due to additional debt incurred related to the 6
acquisitions during 2017.
Net Income (loss)
Net
loss was $485,333 for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to
net income of $1,522 for the period from April 26, 2016 to December
31, 2016. The loss during the year ended December 31, 2017 was
primarily related to non-recurring expenses related to the
reorganization costs of $304,559, and non-cash expenses related to
share-based compensation and depreciation and amortization of
$34,598 and $162,680, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The
Company’s principal liquidity demands have historically been,
and are expected to continue to be, acquisitions, capital
improvements, development and expansions of properties, debt
service, and purchases of manufactured home inventory and rental
homes.
In
addition to cash generated through operations, the Company uses a
variety of sources to fund its cash needs, including
acquisitions. The Company intends to continue to increase its
real estate investments. Our business plan includes acquiring
communities that yield in excess of our cost of funds and then
investing in physical improvements, including adding rental homes
onto otherwise vacant sites. There is no guarantee that any of
these additional opportunities will materialize or that the Company
will be able to take advantage of such opportunities. The growth of
our real estate portfolio depends on the availability of suitable
properties which meet the Company’s investment criteria and
appropriate financing.
Our
working capital has been provided by our operating activities and
our related party note. As of December 31, 2017, the related party
entity with a common ownership to the Company’s president
loaned the Company $441,882 for working capital. The note has a
five-year term with no annual interest and principal payments are
deferred to maturity date for a total credit line of $1.5 million.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements of
approximately $300,000 for the next twelve months, generally
through available cash as well as net cash provided by operating
activities and availability under our existing related party note.
We consider these resources to be adequate to meet our operating
requirements for capital improvements, amortizing debt and payment
of distributions. The ability of the Company to continue its
operations as a going concern is dependent on management’s
plans, which include raising of capital through debt and/or equity
markets with some additional funding from other traditional
financing sources, including term notes.

Going Concern
The
ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going
concern is dependent on management’s plans, which include the
raising of capital through debt and/or equity markets with some
additional funding from other traditional financing sources,
including term notes, until such time that funds provided by
operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.
There is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern.
The
Company will require additional funding to finance the growth of
its current and expected future operations as well as to achieve
its strategic objectives. The Company believes its current
available cash along with anticipated revenues may be insufficient
to meet its cash needs for the near future. There can be no
assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms
acceptable to the Company, if at all. The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery
of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as
a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As
of December 31, 2017, the Company had no off-balance sheet
arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
We
believe that the following accounting policies are the most
critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation.”
Revenue Recognition
The
Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.
The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned
when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, (ii) title has passed to the customer,
(iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv)
collectability is reasonably assured.
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period.
The
Company’s significant accounting estimates and assumptions
affecting the consolidated financial statements were the estimates
and assumptions used in valuation of equity and derivative
instruments. Those significant accounting estimates or assumptions
bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are
uncertainties attached to those estimates or assumptions, and
certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or
value.
Management
bases its estimates on historical experience and on various
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management
regularly reviews its estimates utilizing currently available
information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical
experience and reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if
deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant
estimates include the assumptions used in valuing equity-based
transactions, valuation of deferred tax assets, depreciable lives
of property and equipment and valuation of investment
property.
Stock-Based Compensation
All
stock-based payments to employees, non-employee consultants, and to
nonemployee directors for their services as directors, including
any grants of restricted stock and stock options, are measured at
fair value on the grant date and recognized in the statements of
operations as compensation or other expense over the relevant
service period. Stock- based payments to nonemployees are
recognized as an expense over the period of performance. Such
payments are measured at fair value at the earlier of the date a
performance commitment is reached or the date performance is
completed. In addition, for awards that vest immediately and are
non-forfeitable the measurement date is the date the award is
issued.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We
follow paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification for disclosures about fair value of our financial
instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to
measure the fair value of our financial instruments. Paragraph
820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“U.S. GAAP”), and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability
in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph
820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes
the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into
broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority
to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation -
Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification
Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms
or conditions of a share based payment award are subject to the
guidance on modification accounting under FASB Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 718. Entities would apply the modification
accounting guidance unless the value, vesting requirements and
classification of a share based payment award are the same
immediately before and after a change to the terms or conditions of
the award. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the consolidated financial
statements.
On
February 22, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other
Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial
Assets.” ASU 2017-05 provides guidance for recognizing gains
and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets and
in-substance non-financial assets in contracts with non-customers,
unless other specific guidance applies. The standard requires a
company to derecognize nonfinancial assets once it transfers
control of a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance
nonfinancial asset. Additionally, when a company transfers its
controlling interest in a nonfinancial asset, but retains a
noncontrolling ownership interest, the company is required to
measure any non-controlling interest it receives or retains at fair
value. The guidance requires companies to recognize a full gain or
loss on the transaction. As a result of the new guidance, the
guidance specific to real estate sales in ASC 360-20 will be
eliminated. As such, sales and partial sales of real estate assets
will now be subject to the same derecognition model as all other
nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact this standard may have on the consolidated
financial statements.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of
Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and
Cash Payments.” ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes
to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified
in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard
will not have a material impact on our financial position, results
of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating
the potential impact this standard may have on the consolidated
financial statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial
Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires
that entities use a new forward looking “expected loss”
model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of
allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit
losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and
reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability
of the reported amount. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is
currently evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on
the consolidated financial statements.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.”
ASU 2016-02 amends the existing accounting standards for lease
accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on
their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor
accounting. The standard requires a modified retrospective
transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into
after, the date of initial application, with an option to use
certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption
is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the consolidated financial
statements and the timing of adoption.
In
January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial
Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01
requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the
equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation
of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in net income, requires public business entities
to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of
financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate
presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by
measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates
the requirement for public business entities to disclose the
method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair
value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact
this standard may have on the consolidated financial statements and
the timing of adoption.
In
May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606)”. The objective of this amendment
is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and
will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance,
including industry-specific guidance. The core principle is that a
company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. In applying this amendment,
companies will perform a five-step analysis of transactions to
determine when and how revenue is recognized. This amendment
applies to all contracts with customers except those that are
within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. An entity should
apply the amendments using either the full retrospective approach
or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying
the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In
July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective
date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company has not yet selected which
transition method it will apply upon adoption. Our primary source
of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which is
specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and
are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption
of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams,
including sales of manufactured homes, interest income, dividend
income and other income. While our evaluations are ongoing, we do
not expect material changes to our accounting policies for these
revenue streams.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Item 7. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and
Director Independence.
There have been no transactions involving the Company since the
beginning of the last fiscal year, or any currently proposed
transactions, in which the Company was or is to be a participant or
1% of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end
for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related
person had or will have a direct or indirect material
interest.
Item 8. Legal Proceedings.
There
is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or
by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory
organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive
officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened
against or affecting our Company, our common stock, any of our
subsidiaries or of our Company’s or our Company’s
subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as
such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse
effect.
Item 9. Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant’s
Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.
Market Information.
The
ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a
particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of
that state. A number of states require that an issuer’s
securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted
from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in
that state. Currently, we have no plans to register our securities
in any particular state. Further, our shares may be subject to the
provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act,
commonly referred to as the “penny stock” rule. Section
15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny
stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny
stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The
SEC generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that
has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain
exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is
considered to be a penny stock unless that security is: registered
and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified
criteria set by the SEC; authorized for quotation on The NASDAQ
Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded
from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per
share) or the issuer’s net tangible assets; or exempted from
the definition by the SEC. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to
persons other than established customers and accredited investors
(generally persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual
income exceeding $200,000 by an individual, or $300,000 together
with his or her spouse), are subject to additional sales practice
requirements.
For
transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a
special suitability determination for the purchase of such
securities and must have received the purchaser’s written
consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for
any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules
require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk
disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A
broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both
the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current
quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be
sent to clients disclosing recent price information for the penny
stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in
penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of
broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our common
stock and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their
shares.
In
general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned
restricted shares of a reporting company for at least six months,
including any person who may be deemed an “Affiliate”
of the Company (as the term “Affiliate” is defined
under the Securities Act), is entitled to sell, within any
three-month period, an amount of shares that does not exceed the
greater of (i) the average weekly trading volume in the
Company’s common stock, as reported through the automated
quotation system of a registered securities association, during the
four calendar weeks preceding such sale or (ii) 1% of the shares
then outstanding. In order for a stockholder to rely on Rule 144,
adequate current public information with respect to the company
must be available. A person who is not deemed to be an affiliate of
the company and has not been an affiliate for the most recent three
months, and who has held restricted shares for at least one year is
entitled to sell such shares without regard to the various resale
limitations under Rule 144. Under Rule 144, the requirements of
paragraphs (c), (e), (f), and (h) of such Rule do not apply to
restricted securities sold for the account of a person who is not
an Affiliate of an issuer at the time of the sale and has not been
an Affiliate during the preceding three months, provided the
securities have been beneficially owned by the seller for a period
of at least one year prior to their sale. For purposes of this
registration statement, a controlling stockholder is considered to
be a person who owns 10% or more of the company’s total
outstanding shares, or is otherwise an Affiliate of the Company. No
individual person owning shares that are considered to be not
restricted owns more than 10% of the Company’s total
outstanding shares.
The Company has been delisted prior to the filing of this
Registration Statement; therefore, for the periods indicated, the
high and low sales prices per share of our common stock as reported
on the Pink OTC Markets. The quotations reflect inter-dealer
prices without retail markups, markdowns, or commissions and may
not represent actual transactions. For current price
information, stockholders or other interested individuals are urged
to consult publicly available sources.
Stockholders
As
of March 31, 2018, we had 15 stockholders of record with respect to
our authorized and issued common stock. As of that same date, no
shares of our authorized preferred stock were issued and
outstanding.
Dividends
The
Company has not paid any cash dividends to date and does not
anticipate paying any dividends in the near future. It is the
present intention of management to utilize all available funds for
the growth of the Registrant’s business.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Item 10. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
In
November 2017, the Company issued 4,824,155 shares of stock for
cash of $165,437 to Gvest Real Estate Capital LLC, an entity owned
by the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer.
In
November 2017, the Company issued 455,000 shares of stock for
services to a lender under a line of credit facility agreement with
a fair value of $15,603, and 553,888 shares of stock for services
to a financial advisor in relation to the Merger with a fair value
of $18,995.
In
October 2016, the Company issued 3,820,845 shares of stock for cash
of $131,030 to Gvest Real Estate Capital LLC, an entity owned by
the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer.
All the share
issuances described above were issued in transactions that were
exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act.
The securities issued to the individuals listed below bear the
following restriction:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE
SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED ONLY IF SO REGISTERED OR IF AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH
REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CORPORATION HAS RECEIVED AN
OPINION OF COUNCIL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH
EXEMPTION IS AVAILABLE.
The
recipients represented in writing that it acquired the securities
for its own account. A legend was placed on the stock certificate
stating that the securities have not been registered under the
Securities Act and cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without
an effective registration or an exemption therefrom.
Merger with Mobile Home Rental Holdings Inc.
On or
about July 28, 2017, the Company (which at the time was operating
under the name “Stack-It Storage, Inc.”) and certain
controlling stockholders of the Company (the “Selling
Stockholders”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to
which the Selling Stockholders committed to sell 17,821,373 pre-
reverse split (approximately 2,970,229 post-reverse split) shares
of the Common Stock of the Company to Gvest Real Estate Capital
LLC, the sole member of Mobile Home Rental Holding LLC
(“MHRH”) and its assigns (the “Sale”), and
the Company committed to merge with MHRH (the
“Merger”), pursuant to which the Company would be the
survivor of the Merger and Gvest and the management of MHRH would
assume control of the Company. The Sale and Merger were consummated
on October 12, 2017, and as part of the merger the name of the
Company was changed to Manufactured Housing Properties Inc., the
management of MHRH became the management of the Company, and as
consideration for the Merger, Gvest and its assigns were issued
51,870,000 pre-reverse split (approximately 8,645,000 post-reverse
split) shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company
believes that the 51,870,000 pre-reverse split (approximately
8,645,000 post-reverse split) restricted shares that were issued to
Gvest and its assigns in connection with the Merger were exempt
from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The
issuance was for value received by the Company in connection with
the Merger. The Sale and the Merger were all privately negotiated,
none involved any type of public solicitation, and a restrictive
legend was affixed to all of the stock certificates issued in
connection with such transactions.
Item 11. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be
Registered.
Our
authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, the rights and
preferences of which are included herein by reference. As of
March 31, 2018, there were 10,000,000 shares of common stock and no
shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
Holders
of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all
matters voted upon by our stockholders, including the election of
directors, and do not have cumulative voting rights. Subject
to the rights of holders of any then outstanding shares of our
preferred stock, our common stockholders are entitled to any
dividends that may be declared by our board. Holders of our
common stock are entitled to share ratably in our net assets upon
our dissolution or liquidation after payment or provision for all
liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of our
preferred stock then outstanding. Holders of our common stock
have no preemptive rights to purchase shares of our stock.
The shares of our common stock are not subject to any
redemption provisions and are not convertible into any other shares
of our capital stock. All outstanding shares of our common
stock are, and the shares of common stock to be issued in the
offering will be, upon payment therefor, fully paid and
nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of
our common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any
shares of our preferred stock that we may issue in the
future.
Preferred Stock
Our
Articles of Incorporation, as amended, further authorize the Board
of Directors to issue, from time to time, without
stockholder approval, up to
10,000,000 shares of preferred stock ($0.01par value). As of the
date hereof, no shares of preferred stock are issued and
outstanding. Our board may, from time to time, authorize the
issuance of one or more classes or series of preferred stock
without stockholder approval. Subject to the provisions of our
certificate of incorporation and limitations prescribed by law, our
board is authorized to adopt resolutions to issue shares, establish
the number of shares, change the number of shares constituting any
series, and provide or change the voting powers, designations,
preferences and relative rights, qualifications, limitations or
restrictions on shares of our preferred stock, including dividend
rights, terms of redemption, conversion rights and liquidation
preferences, in each case without any action or vote by our
stockholders. One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock
may be to enable our board to discourage an attempt to obtain
control of our company by means of a tender offer, proxy contest,
merger or otherwise. The issuance of preferred stock may adversely
affect the rights of our common stockholders by, among other
things:
●
Restricting
dividends on the common stock;
●
Diluting the voting
power of the common stock;
●
Impairing the
liquidation rights of the common stock; or
●
Delaying or
preventing a change in control without further action by the
stockholders.
Meetings
of Stockholders
Our
Bylaws require an annual meeting of stockholders for the purpose of
electing directors and conducting any other business that may be
properly transacted at the annual meeting. Our Bylaws further
provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called
only by our Board of Directors or by any committee thereof duly
formed and authorized to call such meeting, unless otherwise
required by law.
Amendment
of Bylaws
Our
Bylaws provide that the power to adopt, amend or repeal the
Company’s Bylaws resided in the Board of Directors, but that
the stockholders may make additional Bylaw(s) and may alter or
repeal any Bylaw(s), whether adopted by them or otherwise, by an
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of stock entitled to vote on such proposal at a duly held
meeting of the stockholders or, without a meeting, by the written
consent, signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less
than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to
authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares are
entitled to vote thereon were present and voting.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our Common
Stock is First American Stock Transfer, Inc. with an address at
4747 North 7
th
Street Suite 170, Phoenix AZ 85014.
Their phone number is (602) 485-1346.
Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Under
our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Company may
indemnify an officer or
director who is made a party to
any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his or her
position, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner that he
or she reasonably believed to be in the Company’s best
interest. The Company may advance expenses incurred in defending a
proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is
successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he or she is
to be indemnified, the Company must indemnify the officer or
director against all expenses incurred, including attorney’s
fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made
only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the
proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, then
only by a court order. The indemnification coverage is intended to
be to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws.
Regarding
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933, which may be permitted to officers or directors under
applicable state law, the Company is informed that, in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is
against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.
Item 13. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The
Company’s financial statements for the year ended December
31, 2017 and for the period from April 26, 2016 (inception) to
December 31, 2016 have been audited to the extent indicated by

of:
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc. and Subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 2017 and the period from April 26, 2016 (inception) to
December 31, 2016, and the related notes
(collectively
referred to as the “consolidated financial
statements”)
. In our opinion, the consolidated
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 2017 and the period from April 26, 2016
(inception) to December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going
concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company has a net loss attributable to the Company
of approximately $506,000 and lack of working capital. These
factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regards
to these matters are described in Note 2 of the consolidated
financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements
based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered
with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with
respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error
or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform, an audit of its internal controls over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
As
part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of
internal controls over financial reporting, but not for the
purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those
risks. Such procedures including examining, on a test basis,
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also include evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND FOR THE PERIOD
FROM
APRIL 26, 2016 (INCEPTION)TO DECEMBER 31, 2016
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
ORGANIZATION
(A) Organization
The
Company is a Nevada corporation whose principal activities together
with its affiliates, acquires, owns, and operates manufactured
housing communities. Mobile Home Rental Holdings
(“MHRH”) was formed in April 2016 to acquire the assets
for Pecan Grove MHP in November 2016 and Butternut MHP in April
2017. To continue the acquisition and aggregation of mobile home
parks, MHRH intend to raise capital in the public markets.
Therefore, on October 21, 2017, MHRH was acquired by and merged
with a public entity Stack-it Storage, Inc. (OTC: STAK). As part of
the merger transaction, Stack-it Storage, Inc. changed its name to
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc. (OTC: MHPC).
For
accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for a
reverse merger and has been treated as a recapitalization of
Stack-it Storage, Inc. with Manufactured Housing Properties, Inc.
as the accounting acquirer.
(B) Critical Accounting Policies
We
believe that the following accounting policies are the most
critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation.”
Basis of Presentation
The
Company prepares its financial statements under the accrual basis
of accounting, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”).
The
Company’s subsidiaries are all formed in the state of North
Carolina as Limited Liability Companies. The acquisition and date
of consolidation are as follows:

All
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation. The Company does not have a majority or minority
interest in any other company, either consolidated or
unconsolidated.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.
The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned
when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, (ii) title has passed to the customer,
(iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv)
collectability is reasonably assured.
Our lot and
manufactured home leases are generally for one month and auto
renews monthly for an additional month. The Company’s leases
qualify as operating leases under ASC
840.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic
net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income
(loss) by the weightedaverage number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share
is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the
weightedaverage number of common shares outstanding plus the
weightedaverage number of net shares that would be issued
upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock
method. Total dilutive securities outstanding as of December 31,
2017 and 2016 totaled 698,000 and -0- share, respectively upon the
exercise of stock options and 786,695 and -0- share, respectively
upon the conversion of convertible note payable – related
party.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period.
The
Company’s significant accounting estimates and assumptions
affecting the consolidated financial statements were the estimates
and assumptions used in valuation of equity and derivative
instruments. Those significant accounting estimates or assumptions
bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are
uncertainties attached to those estimates or assumptions, and
certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or
value.
Management
bases its estimates on historical experience and on various
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management
regularly reviews its estimates utilizing currently available
information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical
experience and reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if
deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant
estimates include the assumptions used in valuing equity-based
transactions, valuation of deferred tax assets, depreciable lives
of property and equipment and valuation of investment
property.
Investment Property and Equipment and Depreciation
Property
and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation for Sites and
Building is computed principally on the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the assets (ranging from 15 to 25
years). Depreciation of Improvements to Sites and Buildings, Rental
Homes and Equipment and Vehicles is computed principally on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets
(ranging from 3 to 25 years). Land Development Costs are not
depreciated until they are put in use, at which time they are
capitalized as Sites and Land Improvements. Interest Expense
pertaining to Land Development Costs are capitalized. Maintenance
and Repairs are charged to expense as incurred and improvements are
capitalized. The costs and related accumulated depreciation of
property sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the
financial statement and any gain or loss is reflected in the
current year’s results of operations.
Impairment Policy
The
Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Property, Plant
& Equipment (“ASC 360-10”) to measure impairment in
real estate investments. Rental properties are individually
evaluated for impairment when conditions exist which may indicate
that it is probable that the sum of expected future cash flows (on
an undiscounted basis without interest) from a rental property is
less than the carrying value under its historical net cost basis.
These expected future cash flows consider factors such as future
operating income, trends and prospects as well as the effects of
leasing demand, competition and other factors. Upon determination
that a permanent impairment has occurred, rental properties are
reduced to their fair value. For properties to be disposed of, an
impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the property,
less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount
of the property measured at the time there is a commitment to sell
the property and/or it is actively being marketed for sale. A
property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of its carrying
amount or its estimated fair value, less its cost to sell.
Subsequent to the date that a property is held for disposition,
depreciation expense is not recorded.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased
with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
The
Company maintains cash balances at banks and deposits at times may
exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that the
financial institutions that hold the Company's cash are financially
secure and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists. At December
31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no cash balances above the
FDIC-insured limit, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
All
stockbased payments to employees, nonemployee
consultants, and to nonemployee directors for their services as
directors, including any grants of restricted stock and stock
options, are measured at fair value on the grant date and
recognized in the statements of operations as compensation or other
expense over the relevant service period. Stock based
payments to nonemployees are recognized as an expense over the
period of performance. Such payments are measured at fair value at
the earlier of the date a performance commitment is reached or the
date performance is completed. In addition, for awards that vest
immediately and are nonforfeitable the measurement date is
the date the award is issued. The company recorded stock option
expense of $245 during the year ended December 31,
2017.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We
follow paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification for disclosures about fair value of our financial
instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to
measure the fair value of our financial instruments. Paragraph
820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“U.S. GAAP”),and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability
in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph
820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes
the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into
broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority
to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation -
Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification
Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms
or conditions of a share based payment award are subject to the
guidance on modification accounting under FASB Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 718. Entities would apply the modification
accounting guidance unless the value, vesting requirements and
classification of a share based payment award are the same
immediately before and after a change to the terms or conditions of
the award. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the consolidated financial
statements.
On
February 22, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other
Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial
Assets.” ASU 2017-05 provides guidance for recognizing gains
and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets and
in-substance non-financial assets in contracts with non-customers,
unless other specific guidance applies. The standard requires a
company to derecognize nonfinancial assets once it transfers
control of a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance
nonfinancial asset. Additionally, when a company transfers its
controlling interest in a nonfinancial asset, but retains a
noncontrolling ownership interest, the company is required to
measure any non-controlling interest it receives or retains at fair
value. The guidance requires companies to recognize a full gain or
loss on the transaction. As a result of the new guidance, the
guidance specific to real estate sales in ASC 360-20 will be
eliminated. As such, sales and partial sales of real estate assets
will now be subject to the same derecognition model as all other
nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact this standard may have on the consolidated
financial statements.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of
Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and
Cash Payments.” ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes
to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified
in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard
will not have a material impact on our financial position, results
of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating
the potential impact this standard may have on the consolidated
financial statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial
Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires
that entities use a new forward looking “expected loss”
model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of
allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit
losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and
reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability
of the reported amount. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is
currently evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on
the consolidated financial statements.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.”
ASU 2016-02 amends the existing accounting standards for lease
accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on
their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor
accounting. The standard requires a modified retrospective
transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into
after, the date of initial application, with an option to use
certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption
is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the consolidated financial
statements and the timing of adoption.
In
January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial
Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01
requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the
equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation
of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in net income, requires public business entities
to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of
financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate
presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by
measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates
the requirement for public business entities to disclose the
method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair
value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact
this standard may have on the consolidated financial statements and
the timing of adoption.
In
May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606)”. The objective of this amendment
is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and
will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance,
including industry-specific guidance. The core principle is that a
company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. In applying this amendment,
companies will perform a five-step analysis of transactions to
determine when and how revenue is recognized. This amendment
applies to all contracts with customers except those that are
within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. An entity should
apply the amendments using either the full retrospective approach
or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying
the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In
July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective
date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company has not yet selected which
transition method it will apply upon adoption. Our primary source
of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which is
specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and
are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption
of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams,
including sales of manufactured homes, interest income, dividend
income and other income. While our evaluations are ongoing, we do
not expect material changes to our accounting policies for these
revenue streams.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying Consolidated Financial
Statements.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The
ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going
concern is dependent on management’s plans, which include the
raising of capital through debt and/or equity markets with some
additional funding from other traditional financing sources,
including term notes, until such time that funds provided by
operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.
There is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern.
The
Company will require additional funding to finance the growth of
its current and expected future operations as well as to achieve
its strategic objectives. The Company believes its current
available cash along with anticipated revenues may be insufficient
to meet its cash needs for the near future. There can be no
assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms
acceptable to the Company, if at all. The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery
of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as
a going concern.
Our
working capital has been provided by our operating activities and
our related party note. As of December 31, 2017, the related party
entity with a common ownership to the Company’s president
loaned the Company $441,882 for working capital. The note has a
five-year term with no annual interest and principal payments are
deferred to maturity date for a total credit line of $1.5 million.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements of
approximately $300,000 for the next twelve months, generally
through available cash as well as net cash provided by operating
activities and availability under our existing related party note.
We consider these resources to be adequate to meet our operating
requirements for capital improvements, amortizing debt and payment
of distributions. The ability of the Company to continue its
operations as a going concern is dependent on management’s
plans, which include raising of capital through debt and/or equity
markets with some additional funding from other traditional
financing sources, including term notes.
NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS
During the year ended December 31, 2017, the
company acquired the assets of six manufactured
housing communities containing approximately 370 developed home
sites. During the fourth quarter 2016, the Company acquired
the assets of its first manufactured housing
community. These were asset acquisitions from third parties
and have been accounted for as asset acquisitions.
The
acquisition date
estimated fair value was determined by third party
appraisals. The acquisition of the

NOTE 4 – PROMISSORY NOTES
During
the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the company entered
into promissory notes from lenders related to the acquisition of
seven manufactured housing communities containing
approximately.
Except
our line of credit, generally, the promissory notes range from 4.5%
to 7.0% with 20 to 25 years principal amortization. Two of the
promissory notes had an initial 6 months period on interest only
payments. The Line of Credit is interest only payment based on 10%,
and 8% deferred till maturity to be paid with principal balance.
The Line of Credit awarded the lender 455,000 shares of common
stock as compensation, which resulted in making the lender a
related party due to their significant ownership. The promissory
notes are secured by the real estate assets, and the line of credit
is secured by the company's guaranteed by the owner of the
principal stockholder of the company.

As of December 31, 2017, a related
party entity with a common ownership to the Company’s founder
loaned the Company $441,882 for working capital. The note has a
five-year term with no annual interest and principal
payments are deferred to maturity date. The Company recorded an
In-kind contribution of interest in the amount of
$7,493.
(**)
The line of credit, which is guaranteed by the owner of the
principal stockholder of the company, has a conversion option
whereby the lender can convert the ratio of total outstanding debt
at time of exercise of the option into an amount of newly issued
shares of the company’s common stock equal determined by
dividing the outstanding indebtedness by $3,000,000 multiplied by
10% with a cap of 864,500 shares. As of December 31,
2017, the indebtedness under the line of credit was $2,754,550 and
this amount would have resulted in a conversion into 786,695 newly
issued shares.
The
line of credit also gives the lender an option to purchase up to
864,500 shares of newly issued common stock for a purchase price of
$3,000,000 minus the value of the outstanding principal of the
Note, if any, previously converted into equity.

(F) Non-Controlling Interest
The
Company owns 75% of membership interest in Pecan Grove MHP LLC. The
remaining 25% are owned by unaffiliated noncontrolling
investors who invested $0 and $309,153 during the years ended
December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. During the years ended
December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company made a total distribution

NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The
Company issued 4,824,155 and 3,820,845 shares of common stock
during the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for
cash totaling $296,467 to its founder and Chairman of the
Board.
As of
December 31, 2017, an entity with a common ownership to the
Company’s founder loaned the Company $441,882 for working
capital. The note has a five-year term with no annual interest and
principal payments are deferred to maturity date. The Company
recorded an In-kind contribution of interest in the amount of
$7,493.
The
Company entered into a debt agreement for a revolving line of
credit. The Line of Credit is interest only payment based on 10%,
and 8% deferred until maturity to be paid with principal balance.
The Line of Credit is secured by the company's personally
guaranteed by the owner of the principal stockholder of the
company. The Line of Credit awarded the lender 455,000 shares of
common stock as consideration of the note. The fair value of shares
was $15,603, based on the recent cash price and was treated as debt
discounted, which resulted in making the lender a related party due
to their significant ownership.
The
line of credit, which is guaranteed by the owner of the principal
stockholder of the company, has a conversion option whereby the
lender can convert the ratio of total outstanding debt at time of
exercise of the option into an amount of newly issued shares of the
company’s common stock equal determined by dividing the
outstanding indebtedness by $3,000,000 multiplied by 10% with a cap
of 864,500 shares. As of December 31, 2017, the
indebtedness under the line of credit was $2,754,550 and this
amount would have resulted in a conversion into 786,695 newly
issued shares.
The
line of credit also gives the lender an option to purchase up to
864,500 shares of newly issued common stock for a purchase price of
$3,000,000 minus the value of the outstanding principal of the
Note, if any, previously converted into equity.
NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
During
the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company is a limited
liability company, taxable income or loss flows through to the
member on their individual tax returns rather than at the corporate
level.
On
December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts and
Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) that significantly reforms the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal
Revenue Code”). The TCJA, among other things, contains
significant changes to corporate taxation, including reduction of
the corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat
rate of 21%, effective as of January 1, 2018; limitation of the tax
deduction for interest expense; limitation of the deduction for net
operating losses to 80% of current year taxable income and
elimination of net operating loss carrybacks, in each case, for
losses arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017
(though any such tax losses may be carried forward indefinitely);
modifying or repealing many business deductions and credits,
including reducing the business tax credit for certain clinical
testing expenses incurred in the testing of certain drugs for rare
diseases or conditions generally referred to as “orphan
drugs”; and repeal of the federal Alternative Minimum Tax
(“AMT”).
The
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 118 to address the application of GAAP in
situations when a registrant does not have the necessary
information available, prepared or analyzed (including
computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for
certain income tax effects of the TCJA. In connection with the
initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA, the Company remeasured
its deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which
they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%.
The remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax assets and
liabilities was offset by a change in the valuation
allowance.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND THE PERIOD
FROM
APRIL 26, 2016 (INCEPTION) TO DECEMBER 31, 2016
The
Company is still in the process of analyzing the impact to the
Company of the TCJA. Where the Company has been able to make
reasonable estimates of the effects related to which its analysis
is not yet complete, the Company has recorded provisional amounts.
The ultimate impact to the Company’s consolidated financial
statements of the TCJA may differ from the provisional amounts due
to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in
interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, additional
regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may
take as a result of the TCJA. The accounting is expected to be
complete when the Company’s 2017 U.S. corporate income tax
return is filed in 2018.
At
December 31, 2017, the Company had deferred tax assets principally
arising from the net operating loss carry forwards for income tax
purposes multiplied by the Federal statutory tax rate of 34%. As
management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely
than not that we will realize the benefit of the deferred tax
assets, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has
been established at December 31, 2017.
The
significant components of the deferred tax asset at December 31,
2017 was as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Stockholders’ of:
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses
of Maple Hill Holdings LLC (the “Company”) for the year
ended December 31, 2016 and the related notes to the statement of
revenue and certain expenses
Management’s responsibility for Statement of Revenue and
Certain Expenses
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the statement or revenue and certain expenses in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control
relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of
revenue and certain expenses based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
statement of revenue and certain expenses is free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenue and
certain expenses. The procedures selected depend on the
auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s
internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the statement of revenue and certain expenses.
We believe that our audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our
opinion, the statement of revenue and certain expenses referred to
above presents fairly, in all material respects, the statement of
revenue and certain expenses described on Note 1 of the Maple Hill
Holdings LLC’s statement of revenue and certain expenses for
the year ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.
Emphasis
of Matter
We draw
attention to Note 1 to the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, which describes that the accompanying statement of
revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purposes of
complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of Maple Hill Holdings LLC’s revenue and
expenses. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this
matter.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
(UNAUDITED)
AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
ORGANIZATION
(A) Organization and
Basis of
Presentation
Maple
Hill Holdings LLC (the “Company”) was formed as a
limited liability company under the laws of the State of North
Carolina.
The accompanying statement of revenues and certain
expenses has been prepared for the purpose of complying
with
Rule 3-14 of Regulation
S-X
promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and accordingly, is not representative of the
actual results of operations of the properties for the period
presented, due to the exclusion of the following revenues and
expenses which may not be comparable to the proposed future
operations:
●
Depreciation and
amortization
●
Interest income and
expense
Except
as noted above, management is not aware of any material factors
relating to the properties that would cause the reported financial
information not to be indicative of future operating results. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation
of this statement of revenues and certain expenses have been
included.
(B) Use of Estimates
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
(C) Business Segments
The
Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information
is not presented.
(D) Operating Expenses
Operating
expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the properties
and consist primarily of real estate taxes, payroll, repairs and
maintenance, utilities, insurance and other operating expenses that
are expected to continue in the proposed future operations of the
properties.
(E) Revenue Recognition
The
Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.
The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned
when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, (ii) title has passed to the customer,
(iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv)
collectability is reasonably assured.
(F) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation -
Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification
Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms
or conditions of a share based payment award are subject to the
guidance on modification accounting under FASB Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 718. Entities would apply the modification
accounting guidance unless the value, vesting requirements and
classification of a share based payment award are the same
immediately before and after a change to the terms or conditions of
the award. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the financial
statements.
MAPLE HILL HOLDINGS LLC
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
(UNAUDITED)
AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
On
February 22, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 201705,
“Other IncomeGains and Losses from the Derecognition of
Nonfinancial Assets.” ASU 201705 provides guidance for
recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial
assets and in substance nonfinancial assets in
contracts with noncustomers, unless other specific guidance
applies. The standard requires a company to derecognize
nonfinancial assets once it transfers control of a distinct
nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance nonfinancial asset.
Additionally, when a company transfers its controlling interest in
a nonfinancial asset, but retains a noncontrolling ownership
interest, the company is required to measure any
noncontrolling interest it receives or retains at fair value.
The guidance requires companies to recognize a full gain or loss on
the transaction. As a result of the new guidance, the guidance
specific to real estate sales in ASC 36020 will be
eliminated. As such, sales and partial sales of real estate assets
will now be subject to the same derecognition model as all other
nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact this standard may have on the financial
statements.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201615, “Statement
of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts
and Cash Payments.” ASU 201615 will make eight targeted
changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and
classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 201615 is
effective for annual reporting periods, including interim reporting
periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.
Early adoption is permitted. The Company believes that the adoption
of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is
currently evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on
the financial statements.
In June
2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201613, “Financial
Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 201613
requires that entities use a new forward looking “expected
loss” model that generally will result in the earlier
recognition of allowance for credit losses. The measurement of
expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current
conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect
the collectability of the reported amount. ASU No. 201613 is
effective for annual reporting periods, including interim reporting
periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2019.
The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact this
standard may have on the financial statements.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 201602,
“Leases.” ASU 201602 amends the existing
accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring
lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making
targeted changes to lessor accounting. The standard requires a
modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing
at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an
option to use certain transition relief. ASU 201602 will be
effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on the
financial statements and the timing of adoption.
In
January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 201601, “Financial
Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 201601
requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the
equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation
of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in net income, requires public business entities
to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of
financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate
presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by
measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates
the requirement for public business entities to disclose the
method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair
value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. ASU 201601 is effective for
annual reporting periods, including interim reporting periods
within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early
adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact this standard may have on the financial statements
and the timing of adoption.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
(UNAUDITED)
AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
In
May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606)”. The objective of this amendment
is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and
will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance,
including industry-specific guidance. The core principle is that a
company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. In applying this amendment,
companies will perform a five-step analysis of transactions to
determine when and how revenue is recognized. This amendment
applies to all contracts with customers except those that are
within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. An entity should
apply the amendments using either the full retrospective approach
or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying
the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In
July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective
date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company has not yet selected which
transition method it will apply upon adoption. Our primary source
of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which is
specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and
are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption
of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams,
including sales of manufactured homes, interest income, dividend
income and other income. While our evaluations are ongoing, we do
not expect material changes to our accounting policies for these
revenue streams.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying Financial
Statements.
NOTE 2
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From
time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits
and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of
business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties,
and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise that may
harm its business. The Company is currently not aware of any such
legal proceedings or claims that they believe will have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its
business, financial condition or operating results.
NOTE 3
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At
December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no related party
transactions.
NOTE 4
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The
Company’s manufactured housing communities are located in the
southeastern region of the United States. These concentrations of
assets are subject to the risks of real property ownership and
local and national economic growth trends.
In
December 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement
(“Purchase Agreement”) with Beaver Creek CRE LLC
(“Buyer”).
Beaver Creek CRE
LLC is the merger sub of Maple Hills MHP LLC.
Under the
terms of the Purchase Agreement. Buyer will purchase all of the
assets of the Company for $3.9 million consisting of $3.0 million
in land value and improvements, and $0.9 million in manufactured
houses and closing cost.
In
preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated
events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure
through April 19, 2018 the date the financial statements were
issued.

May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606)”. The objective of this amendment
is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and
will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance,
including industry-specific guidance. The core principle is that a
company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. In applying this amendment,
companies will perform a five-step analysis of transactions to
determine when and how revenue is recognized. This amendment
applies to all contracts with customers except those that are
within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. An entity should
apply the amendments using either the full retrospective approach
or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying
the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In
July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective
date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company has not yet selected which
transition method it will apply upon adoption. Our primary source
of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which is
specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and
are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption
of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams,
including sales of manufactured homes, interest income, dividend
income and other income. While our evaluations are ongoing, we do
not expect material changes to our accounting policies for these
revenue streams.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying Financial
Statements.
NOTE 2
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From
time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits
and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of
business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties,
and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise that may
harm its business. The Company is currently not aware of any such
legal proceedings or claims that they believe will have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its
business, financial condition or operating results.
NOTE 3
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At
December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no related party
transactions.
NOTE 4
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The
Company’s manufactured housing communities are located in the
southeastern region of the United States. These concentrations of
assets are subject to the risks of real property ownership and
local and national economic growth trends.
In
November 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement
(“Purchase Agreement”) with Beaver Creek CRE LLC
(“Buyer”). Beaver Creek CRE LLC is the merger sub of
Lakeview MHP LLC. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer
will purchase all of the assets of the Company for $1.8 million
consisting of $1.75 million in land value and improvements, and
$0.05 million in closing cost.
In
preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated
events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure
through April 19, 2018 the date the financial statements were
issued.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Stockholders’ of:
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain
expenses of Chatham Pines LLC (the “Company”) for the
year ended December 31, 2016 and the related notes to the statement
of revenue and certain expenses.
Management’s responsibility for Statement of Revenue and
Certain Expenses
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the statement or revenue and certain expenses in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control
relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of
revenue and certain expenses based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
statement of revenue and certain expenses is free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenue and
certain expenses. The procedures selected depend on the
auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s
internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the statement of revenue and certain expenses.
We believe that our audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the statement of revenue and certain expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the
statement of revenue and certain expenses described on Note 1 of
the Chatham Pines LLC’s statement of revenue and certain
expenses for the year ended in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 1 to the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, which describes that the accompanying statement of
revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purposes of
complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of Chatham Pines, LLC’s revenue and expenses.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to this
matter.

AND
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
ORGANIZATION
(A) Organization and Basis of Presentation
Chatham
Pines LLC (the “Company”) was formed as a limited
liability company under the laws of the State of North
Carolina.
The accompanying statement of revenues and certain
expenses has been prepared for the purpose of complying
with
Rule 3-14 of Regulation
S-X
promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and accordingly, is not representative of the
actual results of operations of the properties for the period
presented, due to the exclusion of the following revenues and
expenses which may not be comparable to the proposed future
operations:
●
Depreciation and
amortization
●
Interest income and
expense
Except
as noted above, management is not aware of any material factors
relating to the properties that would cause the reported financial
information not to be indicative of future operating results. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation
of this statement of revenues and certain expenses have been
included.
(B) Use of Estimates
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
(C) Business Segments
The
Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information
is not presented.
(D) Operating Expenses
Operating
expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the properties
and consist primarily of real estate taxes, payroll, repairs and
maintenance, utilities, insurance and other operating expenses that
are expected to continue in the proposed future operations of the
properties.
(E) Revenue Recognition
The
Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.
The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned
when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, (ii) title has passed to the customer,
(iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv)
collectability is reasonably assured.
(F) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation -
Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification
Accounting.” ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms
or conditions of a share based payment award are subject to the
guidance on modification accounting under FASB Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 718. Entities would apply the modification
accounting guidance unless the value, vesting requirements and
classification of a share based payment award are the same
immediately before and after a change to the terms or conditions of
the award. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the financial
statements.

TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 (UNAUDITED)
AND
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
On
February 22, 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, “Other
Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial
Assets.” ASU 2017-05 provides guidance for recognizing gains
and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets and
in-substance non-financial assets in contracts with non-customers,
unless other specific guidance applies. The standard requires a
company to derecognize nonfinancial assets once it transfers
control of a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance
nonfinancial asset. Additionally, when a company transfers its
controlling interest in a nonfinancial asset, but retains a
noncontrolling ownership interest, the company is required to
measure any non-controlling interest it receives or retains at fair
value. The guidance requires companies to recognize a full gain or
loss on the transaction. As a result of the new guidance, the
guidance specific to real estate sales in ASC 360-20 will be
eliminated. As such, sales and partial sales of real estate assets
will now be subject to the same derecognition model as all other
nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact this standard may have on the financial
statements.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of
Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and
Cash Payments.” ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes
to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified
in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard
will not have a material impact on our financial position, results
of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating
the potential impact this standard may have on the financial
statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial
Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires
that entities use a new forward looking “expected loss”
model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of
allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit
losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and
reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability
of the reported amount. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is
currently evaluating the potential impact this standard may have on
the financial statements.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.”
ASU 2016-02 amends the existing accounting standards for lease
accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on
their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor
accounting. The standard requires a modified retrospective
transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into
after, the date of initial application, with an option to use
certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption
is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact this standard may have on the financial statements and the
timing of adoption.
In
January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial
Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01
requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the
equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation
of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in net income, requires public business entities
to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of
financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate
presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by
measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates
the requirement for public business entities to disclose the
method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair
value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact
this standard may have on the financial statements and the timing
of adoption.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Stockholders’ of:
Manufactured Housing Properties Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain
expenses of TB3 LLC (the “Company”) for the year ended
December 31, 2016 and the related notes to the statement of revenue
and certain expenses.
Management’s responsibility for Statement of Revenue and
Certain Expenses
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the statement or revenue and certain expenses in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control
relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of
revenue and certain expenses based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
statement of revenue and certain expenses is free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenue and
certain expenses. The procedures selected depend on the
auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the statement
of revenue and certain expenses in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s
internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the statement of revenue and certain expenses.
We believe that our audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the statement of revenue and certain expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the
statement of revenue and certain expenses described on Note 1 of
the TB3 LLC ’s statement of revenue and certain expenses for
the year ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 1 to the statement of revenue and certain
expenses, which describes that the accompanying statement of
revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purposes of
complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not intended to be a complete

Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01
requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the
equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation
of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair
value recognized in net income, requires public business entities
to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of
financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate
presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by
measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates
the requirement for public business entities to disclose the
method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair
value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual
reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those
periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is
permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact
this standard may have on the financial statements and the timing
of adoption.

NOTES
TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2017 (UNAUDITED)
AND
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016
In
May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606)”. The objective of this amendment
is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in
accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and
will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance,
including industry-specific guidance. The core principle is that a
company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. In applying this amendment,
companies will perform a five-step analysis of transactions to
determine when and how revenue is recognized. This amendment
applies to all contracts with customers except those that are
within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. An entity should
apply the amendments using either the full retrospective approach
or retrospectively with a cumulative effect of initially applying
the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In
July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective
date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to annual reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within
that reporting period. The Company has not yet selected which
transition method it will apply upon adoption. Our primary source
of revenue is generated through leasing arrangements, which is
specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. We continue to evaluate and
are in the process of quantifying the impact, if any, the adoption
of ASU 2014-09 will have on our non-lease revenue streams,
including sales of manufactured homes, interest income, dividend
income and other income. While our evaluations are ongoing, we do
not expect material changes to our accounting policies for these
revenue streams.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet
effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying Financial
Statements.
NOTE 2
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From
time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits
and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of
business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties,
and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise that may
harm its business. The Company is currently not aware of any such
legal proceedings or claims that they believe will have,
individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its
business, financial condition or operating results.
NOTE 3
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At
December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no related party
transactions.
NOTE 4
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The
Company’s manufactured housing communities are located in the
southeastern region of the United States. These concentrations of
assets are subject to the risks of real property ownership and
local and national economic growth trends.
In
April 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement
(“Purchase Agreement”) with Gvest Capital LLC
(“Buyer”). Gvest Capital LLC is the merger sub of
Butternut MHP LLC. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer
will purchase all of the assets of the Company for $1.7 million
consisting of $1.2 million in land value and improvements, and $0.5
million in closing cost.
In
preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated
events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure
through April 19, 2018 the date the financial statements were
issued.
UNADUDITED PROFORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
The
following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and S-X Article
11 to provide pro forma information with regards to certain
real estate acquisitions and financing transactions, as
applicable.
The
accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of
Operations of the Company are presented for the years ended
December 31, 2017 and 2016 (the "Pro Forma Periods") and include
certain pro forma adjustments to illustrate the estimated effect of
the Company's acquisitions and transactions as described in Note
1.
This
pro forma consolidated financial information is presented for
informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative
of the Company's financial results as if the transactions reflected
herein had occurred on the date or been in effect during the period
indicated. This pro forma consolidated financial information should
not be viewed as indicative of the Company's financial results in
the future and should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements.

which they are interested, or between the Corporation and any
corporation or association of which one or more of its Directors or
officers are stockholders, members, directors, officers, or
employees, or in which they are interested, shall be void or
voidable solely for this reason, solely because of the presence of
such Director or Directors or officer or officers at the meeting of
the Board of Directors of the Corporation, which acts upon, or in
reference to, such contract, or transaction, or solely because his
or their votes are counted for such purpose, if (a) the material
facts of such relationship or interest shall be disclosed or known
to the Board of Directors and noted in the minutes, and the Board
of Directors shall, nevertheless in good faith, authorize, approve
and ratify such contract or transaction by a vote of a majority of

counted in calculating the majority of such quorum necessary to
carry such vote; (b) the material facts of such relationship or
interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are
known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the

authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a

Mandatory
Indemnification

is threatened to be made a party, or who was or is a witness
without being named a party, to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, arbitrative or investigative, any appeal in such an
action, suit or proceeding, and any inquiry or investigation that
could lead to such an action, suit or proceeding (a "Proceeding"),
by reason of the fact that such individual is or was a Director or
officer of the Corporation, or while a Director or officer of the
Corporation is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as
a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee,
employee, agent or similar functionary of another corporation,
partnership, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation from and
against any judgments, penalties (including excise taxes), fines,
amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses (including court
costs and attorneys' fees) actually incurred by such person in
connection with such Proceeding if it is determined that he acted
in good faith and reasonably believed (i) in the case of conduct in
his official capacity on behalf of the Corporation that his conduct
was in the Corporation's best interests, (ii) in all other cases,
that his conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation, and (iii) with respect to any Proceeding which is a
criminal action, that he had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that in the event a
determination is made that such person is liable to the Corporation
or is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was
improperly received by such person, the indemnification is limited
to reasonable expenses actually incurred by such person in
connection with the Proceeding and shall not be made in respect of
any Proceeding in which such person shall have been found liable
for intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law
in the performance of his duty to the Corporation. The termination
of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or
upon a plea of
nolo
contendere
or its
equivalent, shall not, of itself be determinative of whether the
person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Corporation, and, with respect to any Proceeding which is a
criminal action, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct
was unlawful. A person shall be deemed to have been found liable in
respect of any claim, issue or matter only after the person shall
have been so adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction after
exhaustion of all appeals therefrom.
6.2
Determination
of Indemnification
. Any indemnification under the foregoing
Section 6.1 (unless ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction)
shall be made by the Corporation only upon a determination that
indemnification of such person is proper in the circumstances by
virtue of the fact that it shall have been determined that such
person has met the applicable standard of conduct. Such
determination shall be made (1) by the stockholders; (2) by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who at the time
of the vote are not parties to the act, suit or proceeding; (3) by
independent legal counsel (in a written opinion) if so ordered by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not
parties to the act, suit or proceeding; or (4) by independent legal
counsel (in a written opinion) if such quorum cannot be
obtained.
6.3
Advancement
of Expenses
. Reasonable expenses, including court costs and
attorneys' fees, incurred by a person who was or is a witness or
who was or is named as a defendant or respondent in a Proceeding,
by reason of the fact that such individual is or was a Director or
officer of the Corporation, shall be paid by the Corporation at
reasonable intervals in advance of the final disposition of such
Proceeding, upon receipt by the Corporation of a written
affirmation by such person of his good faith belief that he has met
the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under this
Article 6, and a written undertaking by or on behalf of such person
to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Corporation if it is
ultimately determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized in this Article 6. Such written
undertaking shall be an unlimited obligation of such person and it
may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make
repayment.
6.4
Permissive
Indemnification
. The Board of Directors of the Corporation
may authorize the Corporation to indemnify employees or agents of
the Corporation, and to advance the reasonable expenses of such
persons, to the same extent, following the same determinations and
upon the same conditions as are required for the indemnification of
and advancement of expenses to Directors and officers of the
Corporation.
6.5
Nature
of Indemnification
. The indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled
under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, any agreement,
vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both
as to actions taken in an official capacity and as to actions taken
in any other capacity while holding such office, shall continue as
to a person who has ceased to be a Director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of such person.
6.6
Insurance
.
The Corporation shall have the power and authority to purchase and
maintain insurance or another arrangement on behalf of any person
who is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or who is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation as a Director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor,
trustee, employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign
or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole
proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
against any liability, claim, damage, loss or risk asserted against
such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity or
arising out of the status of such person as such, irrespective of
whether the Corporation would have the power to indemnify and hold
such person harmless against such liability under the provisions
hereof. If the insurance or other arrangement is with a person or
entity that is not regularly engaged in the business of providing
insurance coverage, the insurance or arrangement may provide for
payment of a liability with respect to which the Corporation would
not have the power to indemnify the person only if including
coverage for the additional liability has been approved by the
stockholders of the Corporation. Without limiting the power of the
Corporation to procure or maintain any kind of insurance or other
arrangement, the Corporation may, for the benefit of persons
indemnified by the Corporation, (1) create a trust fund; (2)
establish any form of self-insurance; (3) secure its indemnity
obligation by grant of a security interest or other lien on the
assets of the Corporation; or (4) establish a letter of credit,
guaranty, or surety arrangement; provided, however, that no
arrangement made by the Corporation under Subsections (1) through
(4) of this Section 6.6 may provide protection for a person
adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of
all appeals therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct,
fraud or a knowing violation of the law, except with respect to the
advancement of expenses or indemnification ordered by a court. The
insurance or other arrangement may be procured, maintained, or
established within the Corporation or with any insurer or other
person deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors regardless of
whether all or part of the stock or other securities of the insurer
or other person are owned in whole or part by the Corporation. In
the absence of fraud, the judgment of the Board of Directors as to
the terms and conditions of the insurance or other arrangement and
the identity of the insurer or other person participating in the
arrangement shall be conclusive and the insurance or arrangement
shall not be voidable and shall not subject the Directors approving
the insurance or arrangement to liability, on any ground,
regardless of whether Directors participating in the approval are
beneficiaries of the insurance or arrangement.
6.7
Notice
.
Any indemnification or advance of expenses to a present or former
director of the Corporation in accordance with this Article 6 shall
be reported in writing to the stockholders of the Corporation with
or before the notice or waiver of notice of the next stockholders'
meeting or with or before the next submission of a consent to
action without a meeting and, in any case, within the next
twelve-month period immediately following the indemnification or
advance.
